The greenhouse effect is like a blanket around the Earth. Sunlight (energy) enters the atmosphere, warms the Earth, and the Earth gives off heat. Greenhouse gases trap some of this heat, keeping the planet warm. It shows energy transfer from the Sun to Earth and then back as heat, some of which is held by the atmosphere.
