Greenhouse gases are atmospheric gases that trap heat from the sun, keeping Earth's surface warmer than it would be otherwise. Key greenhouse gases include carbon dioxide (CO₂), methane (CH₄), nitrous oxide (N₂O), and water vapor. While they are essential for maintaining a habitable climate, excessive greenhouse gas emissions from human activities like burning fossil fuels, deforestation, and industrial processes are intensifying global warming. This leads to climate change, causing extreme weather patterns, rising sea levels, and environmental disruptions. Reducing greenhouse gas emissions is critical for protecting the planet’s future.
