Investigate the cause of the greenhouse effect by completing each sentence. greenhouse gases solar radiation infrared carbon dioxide fossil fuels water vapor solar The heat within earth's atmosphere originates from radiation. This energy is trapped near the earth by molecules in the atmosphere called Major greenhouse gases are carbon dioxide, CFCS, methane, ozone, nitrous oxide, and Most of the radiation from the Earth's surface is absorbed by greenhouse gases and reflected back to earth.

Air Pollution

The excess accumulation of pollutants or undesirable alterations in the environment and its resources such as air, water, and land can be referred to as pollution. Pollution affects the components of the environment. Pollution is considered a global issue as it is showing harmful effects worldwide. Metropolitan cities are more impacted by pollution than countryside or villages.
