Answer:

The main component in fossil fuels/natural gases is called methane. When methane is burned with oxygen, it produces water and a large amount of greenhouse gases (commonly known as carbon dioxide). Carbon emissions from this process trap heat in the earth's atmosphere which leads to climate change. These gases are able to trap heat because their molecular structures allow them to absorb the infrared radiation from the sun.

Hope this helps!
