The Greenhouse Effect is a process that occurs when gases in Earth's atmosphere trap the Sun's heat. This process increase the Earth's temperature. The Greenhouse Effect is one of the things that makes Earth a comfortable place to live. Why it is called Greenhouse Effect? Because the Greenhouse Effect works like a Greenhouse.
