Greenhouse Effect & Global Warming
Greenhouse effect: Process by which radiation from a planet's atmosphere warms the planet's surface to a temperature above what it would be without its atmosphere.
Global warming is the climate change observed at century-scale with rise in the average temperature of the Earth's climate system
