The greenhouse effect is the process by which the air surrounding the earth is becoming warmer day by day. In other words, it is the gradual warming of the air which ultimately results in the gradual increase in world temperature. It is a horrible consequence of different types of environmental pollution. It causes the rise of temperatures which can bring about different kinds of natural disasters. These are many causes of the greenhouse effect. The burning down of green tropical forests, the increasing development of industry, the use of CFCs in different commercial products, the use of detergents- all are the causes of the greenhouse effect. It can greatly damage men’s ability to produce food, can destroy wildlife. For it, sea level can rise and flood the coastal area and farmlands. In order to protect ourselves from its catastrophic impact, we should take some effective measures. We should plant more trees and should not use CFCs and other poisonous chemicals indiscriminately.

Science and technology have given us everything but they have destroyed our feelings as a great human being. Those countries which are not in a position to get sunlight in a normal way are habituated to making green house. This green house has a tremendous effect on the earth and the environment. Green house effect signifies gradual waning of the earth’s atmosphere. It is thought to be caused by increased carbon-di-oxide in the air. The scientists are very much concerned about this natural phenomenon. Scientists are now taking steps to isolate and destroy radioactive elements which are a real danger to mankind. Sensing danger, the United Nations Environmental Day has to evolve fruitful possibilities of international collaboration for this global problem. Seminars are being regularly held all over the world to appraise the people of the impending danger to mankind. Not only other countries of the world but also Bangladesh are victims of this greenhouse effect. There is an alarming news for Bangladesh that the lower southern part of the country may one day go underwater.
