Because the most common greenhouse gas, carbon dioxide, lasts in the atmosphere for hundreds of years, its concentrations are expected to continue to grow rather than diminish for a very long time.

CO₂ is the most common greenhouse gas. But it's not the only one. There are other gases that contribute substantially to climate change, such as methane and nitrous oxide.

Our climate seems to be more sensitive to greenhouse gas emissions than some researchers had hoped, meaning the world will ...

GREENHOUSE GAS WARMING - HOW IT WORKS. Our atmosphere is made up of a mix of gases that sustain life by absorbing some solar radiation to heat the planet, allow livings things to breathe, and by ...

Scientists on the US West Coast say they discovered three previously unknown species of deep-sea spider that could have a rare diet fueled by a common greenhouse gas.

The GWP of SF6 is 23,500 making it the most potent greenhouse gas the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change has evaluated. This colourless odourless gas is primarily used to insulate power lines.

Carbon dioxide made up most of the greenhouse gas emissions in 2023, at nearly 80%, according to the report. This is consistent with data dating back to 1990.

Emissions of methane — a powerful greenhouse gas — are rising at the fastest rate in recorded history, scientists said Tuesday, defying global pledges to limit it.

Emissions of methane - a powerful greenhouse gas - are rising at the fastest rate in recorded history, scientists said Tuesday, defying global pledges to limit the gas and putting the Earth on a path ...
