How did the Industrial Revolution effect global warming?

In: Global Warming, Industrial Revolution [Edit categories]

Answer:

Ever since the 19^th centery many industrial revolutions have been made: more machines going to work and more trees being cut down. These machines give off greenhouse emissions causing the greenhouse effect.

Here's a better answer:
Since the industrial revolution in the 19^th century, the greenhouse effect has been amplified dramatically. This is because during the industrial revolution machines were introduced into everyday life, therefore people went from practically gas-emitting free to gas-emitting everyday.
Deforestation also has a dramatic effect. This is because the trees on our earth intake greenhouse gas emissions and exhale oxygen, therefore filtering the air and ridding the atmosphere of some of the gas. Cutting down these trees means more greenhouse gases will be in our atmosphere because the trees have been rid of.
