Answer:
The greenhouse effect is simply the atmosphere's ability to retain heat. This is caused by gases, which we call the Greenhouse Gases.
We call them this because gases trap heat from the sun, just as greenhouses trap cold or heat to suite the plants.
Without this effect we would all die a cold death. The planet has always had this green house effect. There are some groups that believe man is now taking some part in this process, although science has not yet proved, nor disproved this concept. We do know that man produces close to 0.28% of all green house gas emitted annually.
