Solution

Global warming is caused due to increases of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere.

Explanation:

Greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide, methane, and nitrous oxide trap heat in the Earth’s atmosphere. When the amount of these gases increases, more heat is retained, causing Earth’s average temperature to rise. This increase in Earth’s temperature is called global warming.
