Answer: The correct answer is : Several things happen like: Earth and water on the surface of the earth act to reflect and obstruct energy. Light surfaces tend to reflect sunlight and dark surfaces absorb energy and heat the planet.

Energy can be dispersed or absorbed by aerosols in the atmosphere, such as dust, sulfates, nitric oxides and hollin. When these aerosols disperse energy, the atmosphere cools and when they absorb energy, the atmosphere warms.
