Expert Solution
Step 1

The greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide, methane, carbon monoxide, sulphur dioxide levels have increased since the industrial revolution. Since then, the increase in the use of fossil fuels is taking place. These gases trap the ling wave radiations and increase the global temperature by causing global warming, and climate change is an ultimate result of it.
