these gases absorbinfrared radiationfrom the sun in the Earth's atmosphere and release it. Some of the heat released reaches the Earth, along with heat from the sun that has penetrated the atmosphere. As such, greenhouse gas is a major contributing factor...
What are greenhouse gas emissions? The release of certain gases into the Earth’s atmosphere can create a “greenhouse effect”, in which heat becomes trapped and global temperatures rise. While emissions can result from natural causes, they are primarily the result of human activities, especially...
Water vapour is the most abundant greenhouse gas. It increases as the earth's atmosphere warms but unlike CO2, which can remain in the earth’s atmosphere for centuries, water vapour persists for only a few days. Natural and man-made GHGs ...
The definition of a greenhouse gas is at the same time very simple and very complicated for the ordinary man (or woman !) : such a gaz is “just” a gas mixed in the atmosphere thatabsorbs the infrared radiation emitted by the earth’s surface. We are not accustomed to these gases bec...
3. Fossil fuel firms are misleading the public about their moves to cut greenhouse gases and curb climate change – andsocial media are hosting ads that perpetuate this “greenwashing”,researchers say. Many companies have vowed to reach the “net zero” level of greenhouse gas emissions needed ...
Greenhouse gas reporting is the process of documenting the amount of greenhouse gases (GHGs) emitted by a business, organization or country. Total emissions are calculated from a variety of sources, including industrial processes, energy use and transportation and reported on a recurring basis to inf...
Since water vapor is a greenhouse gas, this humid atmosphere—perhaps denser than Earth’s present-day atmosphere, but far less dense than the atmosphere that envelops Venus today—would have efficiently trapped heat from the Sun. At first, this would have had little effect on the oceans of ...

Deforestation– The cutting down of forests within the earth’s green lungs is a major debilitating contributor towards the earth’s inability to process natural transmissions of the sun’s energy via the greenhouse gas effect. Agriculture– Industrialized agriculture (and not organic farming) has see...
