Al Gore has stated:Burning fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) in industry, transport and the generation of electricity, releases extra carbon dioxide (CO2) that has been hidden away for millions of years under the earth. Carbon dioxide is a powerful greenhouse gas that is largely responsible for global warming.

What gases cause global warming and how?
Greenhouse gases (carbon dioxide and methane, mostly) cause global warming by increasing their levels in the atmosphere. This turns the benign greenhouse effect into an accelerated greenhouse effect which is causing global warming.
What negative things can result from increasing the number of greenhouse gases in your atmosphere?
As Algore proposes the increasing greenhouse gases cause global warming. Global warming is the increasing of the atmospheres temperature.
Does the greenhouse effect cause species get extinct?
yes it does
Is natural gas the major cause of the greenhouse effect?
In terms of greenhouse effect, natural gas is more benign than coal or oil, because it provides a greater heating effect per unit of carbon dioxide produced. It is therefore not the major cause of the greenhouse effect.
How is the greenhouse effect the cause of the ozone layer depletion?
The greenhouse effect causes ozone depletion. Greenhouse doesn't let the heat escape, causing problems for ozone.
Is the depletion of ozone layer related with greenhouse effect?
The depletion of ozone layer causes UV to enter. they then cause greenhouse effect.
How does the greenhouse effect earth?
the greenhouse effect influences the earth by cause global warming. The reason why is because the greenhouse effect, traps heat in our atmosphere, causing the earth to heat more than usual.
Does earth radiating mostly infrared light cause the greenhouse effect?
Yes. The infrared radiation from the surface of the earth is captured by the greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. This causes the greenhouse effect.
Why do nitrogen and oxygen do not cause the greenhouse effect?
Nitrogen and oxygen are not greenhouse gases. They are unable to trap and store heat. 3-atom gases like carbon dioxide (CO2) and methane store this heat and cause the greenhouse effect.
How do trees help slow down greenhouse effect?
Trees help to slow down greenhouse effect as they absorb carbon dioxide. This carbon dioxide is a major green house gas and can cause greenhouse effect.
What is the other name for the greenhouse effect?
There really is no other term for the effect of greenhouse gases besides the greenhouse effect.Other associated terms for what the effects cause include:Global WarmingGlobal Climate ChangeClimate ChangeGreenhouse Gas Effect
What does the greenhouse effect have to do with the Carbon cycle and the Oxygen cycle?
Co2 is a greenhouse gas. It cause for global warming.
