Carbon dioxide emission




If we want to talk about one specific cause of global warming we can talk about carbon dioxide emissions which are one of the main causes of global warming and it is the greenhouse gas. Carbon dioxide (CO2) gas generated by man's burning of fossil fuels and the forests is responsible for about half the greenhouse gas warming. Other gases (CFCs, methane, nitrous oxide, troposphere ozone) are responsible for the rest. Increases in all these gases are due to mankind's unstable population growth over especially in the last century, and increased industrial expansion. Approximately 80% of atmospheric CO2 increases are due to man's use of fossil fuels: oil, coal, and gas.
