Greenhouse gases have the ability to absorb heat radiation or infrared radiation during the day and emit heat radiation at night, causing the temperature in the earth's atmosphere not to change suddenly, making the earth's temperature suitable for the growth of living things. In the past, humans have been doing activities that release excessive greenhouse gases, causing the layer of greenhouse gases to accumulate thicker and thicker. It is like the earth being covered with a blanket that is too thick, causing the heat and radiation that the earth receives from the sun to be trapped in the atmosphere, unable to release excess heat from the earth. Therefore, the earth's temperature has increased and caused the problem of climate change.
