An explanation of how the greenhouse effect works.
What is the sun emits infrared radiation onto the Earth, and some is absorbed while the rest bounces back into the atmosphere where greenhouse gases are, which then absorb the infrared radiation causing the temperature in the atmosphere to increase?
