Why does the burning of fossil fuels increase the greenhouse effect on earth? why does the burning of fossil fuels increase the greenhouse effect on earth? burning fuel warms the planet. burning releases carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. burning depletes the amount of ozone, thereby warming the planet. burning produces infrared light, which is then trapped by existing greenhouse gases. all of the above are true?

The burning of fossil fuels increase the greenhouse effect on earth because burning releases carbon dioxide into the atmosphere, and carbon dioxide increase the green house effect. There are also many other factors which increases the green house effect like severe storms. Green house gases absorbs the infrared light, that is why according to the increase of green house gases, the temperature of earth also increases.
