The greenhouse effect refers to the process by which certain gases in Earth's atmosphere trap heat from the sun, preventing it from escaping back into space. This natural process helps keep our planet warm enough to support life.
Global warming is the long-term increase in Earth's average surface temperature due to human activities that increase the concentration of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. This results in overall warming of the Earth's climate, leading to changes in weather patterns, rising sea levels, and other environmental impacts.
