Greenhouse+Gas+Effect



This picture denotes the phenomenon whereby the earth's atmosphere traps solar radiation, caused by the presence in the atmosphere of gases such as carbon dioxide that allow incoming sunlight to pass through but absorb heat radiated back from the earth's surface. This absorption has lead to global warming. Solvents and other non-green applications has lead to this phenomenon.
