Greenhouse effect (= global warming) is keeping an area warm by allowing the solar radiations to pass in but preventing long wavelength heat waves to escape due to presence of radiatively active gases and glasspanes.

What do you mean by global warming?
Global warming is raising the temperature of surface of Earth and nearby atmosphere (due to green house effect).

See lessWhat are greenhouse gases?
Green house gases (GHGs) are radioactively active gases which allow the solar radiations to pass through but reflect back long wave heat radiations.
