Does a catalytic converter helps to reduce the greenhouse effect?
As the catalytic converter emits CO2 and H2O in the air. The gasses absorbe infra red radiation emitted by the earth and re-radiate the energy as heat back towards the earth. So the more CO2 and H2O emitted to the air the more heat there will be. So no, the catalytic converter does not help reduce the greenhouse effect.
Will bad ignition coils cause the catalytic converter to heat up and go bad?
Yes. If a coil is bad causing one or more cylinders to not fire, this allows raw unburned fuel to enter the catalytic converter, where it is burned. This can ruin a converter.
