Greenhouse Gases: Impact and Management

The gases that absorb and emit energy of gravitational and electromagnetic radiation within the thermal infrared range are known as greenhouse gases. These gases play an important role in the maintenance of the temperature of the Earth. They are the main cause of the greenhouse effect. Some of the greenhouse gases that are present in the Earth's atmosphere are carbon dioxide, nitrous oxide, water vapour and ozone. The impact of these individual gases on the total greenhouse effect depends u...
