    - - The Sun's rays hit the Earth and reflect off. Usually, it reflects back towards the Sun. However, some of the heat gets stuck in the atmosphere because of gases in the atmosphere. This is a necessary process, however the excess amount of greenhouse gases cause more heat to be trapped, causing global warming.
