Briefly and a very simplified answer:
All industry uses power of some sort. Currently the major source of power is fossil fuels. When we use fossil fuels we burn them and form CO2. We vent this CO2 to the atmosphere. As the level of CO2 in the atmosphere increase so does the temperature of the Earth (global warming).
Addition:
There are many other effects, specific to certain industries. This is just the main one.

It doesn't. We've had periods of global warming before the industrial revolution.

Some industries have a direct effect by producing CO2/methane/NOx.
Others have an indirect effect by using energy. And more often than not this energy comes from none green/clean sources which produce CO2/methane/NOx.
