The phenomenon is the greenhouse effect Carbon dioxide ,chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs), methane, nitrous oxide and water vapour make up the greenhouse gases. Greenhouse gases produced by burning of fossil also produced belching from cattle and anaerobic respiration in paddy field. effect of deforestation Sunlight enter the Earth’s atmosphere . Most of the radiation is absorbed by the Earth. Some radiation is radiated back into space. Accumulated /increased concentration of greenhouse gases trapped the radiated heat. Warm the atmosphere.
