CO₂

carbon dioxide CO₂ is a potent greenhouse gas ghg.

ghg hello

greenhouse gases in the atmosphere are creating a warming greenhouse effect. The sun's light shines onto the surface, while the gases trap the heat (the gases absorb the infrared radiation energy) that reflects back from the surface inside the Earth's atmosphere. This is warming the planet until it eventually becomes uninhabitable. The world is getting hotter and hotter by the year.

CO₂ / CH₄ / N₂O

the Earth's troposphere (the lowest layer of the atmosphere) is filled with a combination of noxious artificial greenhouse gases ghg.

carbon dioxide CO2  
methane CH4  
nitrous oxide N2O  
ozone O3  
and water vapor 

ghg is produced by humans burning fossil fuels: oil, gas and coal. We are leaking dangerously high levels of methane into the atmosphere. We have made the air so bad that it traps heat in the atmosphere causing global warming, a global emergency.

global levels of carbon dioxide CO₂ passed 400ppm. 100ppm is a healthy level, and 300ppm is a hazardous concentration of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. We have exceeded all levels of global greenhouse gas emissions.

China's greenhouse gas emissions exceeded world: China 27%, US 11%, India 6.6%, EU 6.4%

burning fossil gas produces CO₂

gas stoves and ovens produce carbon monoxide CO. Carbon monoxide from your gas kitchen range is the common cause for elevated concentrations in the home.

as the gas burners operate they consume oxygen and emit carbon dioxide and water vapor. After a period of time, the oxygen level in the area begins to drop and the flames consume more carbon dioxide and begin generating large quantities of carbon monoxide.
