Global warming is caused by two main factors: the greenhouse effect and pollution. The greenhouse effect occurs when greenhouse gases like water vapor, carbon dioxide, methane, and ozone absorb and reflect heat in the atmosphere. Industrial activity and transportation are major sources of carbon dioxide pollution, with industry and fossil fuel use in transportation contributing significantly to the rising levels of greenhouse gases driving climate change. Addressing global warming is important for sustainability and human life.

Topic: global warming (its causes: greenhouse effect,
pollution) Global warming is basically caused by two major causes. First, it results from greenhouse effect. The greenhouse effect is the process of reflecting back of heat energy by the atmosphere because some heat energy is absorbed by greenhouse gasses. Based on the report at http://timeforchange.org, it appears that the major natural greenhouse gases are water vapor, which causes about 36-70% of the greenhouse effect on Earth (not including clouds); carbon dioxide CO2, which causes 9-26%; methane, which causes 4-9%, and ozone, which causes 3-7%. Second, the global warming is also triggered by pollution resulted from industry and transportation. Industry is positioning the biggest supply of CO2 which produces greenhouse gasses. On the other side, the use of fossil fuel in transportation also contributes more CO2 that results in the heat of our atmosphere. In brief, global warming is becoming more serious problem to solve for our life sake.
