Problem

Greenhouse gases absorb infrared radiation, trapping heat in the atmosphere and warm the planet. The scientific community recognizes that GHGs emitted by human activities (primarily carbon dioxide [CO2] from fossil fuel combustion) have changed naturally occurring GHG concentrations in the earth’s atmosphere and led to global climate change (EPA 2018: ES-2).
