Greenhouse gases arise naturally, and are part of the make-up of our atmosphere. Earths conditions are just right to allow life, including us, to flourish. Part of what makes Earth so amenable is the naturally-arising greenhouse effect, which keeps the planet at a friendly 15 °C (59 °F) on average. But in the last century or so, humans have been interfering with the energy balance of the planet, mainly through the burning of fossil fuels that give off additional carbon dioxide into the air. The level of carbon dioxide in Earth’s atmosphere has been rising consistently for decades and traps extra heat near the surface of the Earth, causing temperatures to rise.

Water pollution can come from many sources. Point-source pollution comes from large farms, factories, septic systems, sanitation systems, and landfills. Nonpoint pollution sources include cities, abandoned mining sites, and animal waste.

Greenhouse gases absorb energy from the sun. The gases hold onto this heat and trap it in the atmosphere instead of allowing it to be reflected into space. The increased temperature from the gases in the atmosphere is a major factor in climate change.

Answer from: Quest

answer: ice crystals in air

the water from the water body or another source of water gets evaporated as water vapor as an effect of heat on water. these water vapor rises in the upper layers of the earth atmosphere under high atmospheric pressure. the atmospheric pressure of these water molecules starts to decrease due to the effect of cold air. the invisible water vapor condenses into visible water droplets and ice crystals.these ice crystals and water droplets being less denser than the surrounding air floats on air as clouds.
