Nitrous Oxide Emitted during agricultural or industrial activities also during combustion of solid waste or fossil fuels. |
Some greenhouse gases occur naturally but others like methane, carbon dioxide, ozone, and nitrous oxide and break down our atmosphere that protects us from the suns rays. |
Methane Produced oil, coal, or other natural gases are transported. |
SulferHexaflouride One of the most potent of the greenhouse gases. It has a global warming potential of 22,000 times that of carbon dioxide. |
Ozone Created by pollution in general and UV rays on earths surface. Harms lung function and respiratory system. |
Carbon Dioxide Is produced when solid waste, wood or wood products, or fossil fuels (coal, oil, natural gas) are burned. |
