Step 1

Greenhouse gases have develops a protective layer surrounding the earth and takes infrared radiation. Some of these radiations are reradiated back to the earth surface. This downward flow of radiations is termed greenhouse flux. As a result, the environmental temperature rises up at the surface level. This phenomenon is termed the greenhouse effect.
