The greenhouse effect is a natural process that warms the Earth's surface. It occurs when the sun's energy reaches the Earth's atmosphere, some of it is reflected back to space and the rest is absorbed and re-radiated by greenhouse gases. The absorbed energy warms the atmosphere and the surface of the Earth. This process helps to maintain a stable temperature range on Earth, making it suitable for life.
