the greenhouse effect is a good thing and important for our life it works to keep the temperature of the earth at acceptable level for humans to live and because of the pollution the gases in the atmosphere increased so the greenhouse effect also increases and that leads to changes in the weather to became more warmer which is very dingers for our life on the planet and also the will causes the sea level will rise and the people in the coast will be in dangers and they will have to move to other places and they will be in need and will be more new disease .
and many animals and plants will not be able to live in the new weather and will die that will leads to many other problems mains leas food and starvation.

Greenhouse Effect
The greenhouse effect is theory by Fourier describe how the earth’s atmosphere protect its inhabitants against the freezing temperature. The sun gives off rays of heat (radiation) to the earth which absorb by land and water. The energy in the rays converts to heat energy to warm the surface of the earth. Some of this heat energy is re-radiated out to the atmosphere. The gases in the atmosphere stop some of the heat from escaping into space. These gases are called greenhouse effect.
Without the greenhouse effect our life on the earth will be impossible, and we would we would experience an average temperature of −2.2°F (−19°C) .But any change in the greenhouse effect could make the earth warmer than usual. Even a little extra warming may cause problems for the humans, plants, and animals.
Almost 100% of the observed temperature increase over the last 50 years has been due to the increase in the atmosphere of greenhouse gas. The higher the concentration of greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, the more heat energy is being reflected back to the Earth. The emission of carbon dioxide into the environment mainly from burning of fossil fuels (oil, gas, petrol, kerosene, etc.) has been increased dramatically over the past 50 years.
Higher temperatures will make the water of the seas and oceans expand. Ice melting in the Antarctic and Greenland will flow into the sea. In fact, the world's oceans have already risen 20-40 cm ,and according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA ), the sea level will rise at least 25 meters by the year 2100 . That may not sound like much, but there are 15 million people living within 1 meter of sea level and another 8 million in a similar circumstance in India .According to the National Geographic News ; as a result, millions of people and areas of land will be at danger from flooding.As weather and temperature changes, the homes of plants and animals will be affected all over the world. For example, Polar Bears and Seals will have to find new land for hunting and living, if the ice in the Arctic melts. And also the change in the weather will leads to extinction many kinds of animals and plants, because they may not be able to adaptive with these changes.

It has taken million of years for life to become used to the conditions on earth. As weather and temperature changes, the homes of plants and animals will be affected all over the world.

And also the change in the weather will leads to extinction many kinds of animals and plants, because they may not be able to adaptive with these changes.
In conclusion, the greenhouse effect is very sensitive and important to continue our life on this Planet, so we have to work to keep it at acceptable level, and found ways to adapt ourselves with all these changes.
