Yes, natural gas is a greenhouse gas, methane, twenty times more powerful than carbon dioxide. These greenhouse gases reduce the amount of thermal energy escaping into space, effectively warming the atmosphere, causing global warming, which is then causing climate change.
Natural gases that are already in the atmosphere, like oxygen and nitrogen, do not cause climate change.

∙ 12y agoClimate change is thought to occur because of greenhouse gases, which are produced through the burning of fossil fuels. Fossil fuels are like coal and petroleum, which have been formed over millions of years. The greenhouse gases, like carbon dioxide and methane, trap heat in their chemical bonds, and that makes the atmosphere warm up. So, yes, in a sense, greenhouse gases cause climate change.

How does earth climate change every year?
The Earth climate changes every year due to increased human activity on it. The green house gases too are largely responsible for climate change every year.
A slogan about climate change?
nature is good when you carry your life tender
How does the green hose and the ozone layer effect climate change?
Ozone depletion causes global warming. It then causes climate change.
What is an alliteration for environment?
Green Grass
Bulgaria because of its pleasent climate is known as the?
...known as the green, young and sunny in Europe
How does earth climate change every year?
The Earth climate changes every year due to increased human activity on it. The green house gases too are largely responsible for climate change every year.
When the snow melts and the amount of green house gases increase so what kind of increased risk are we facing?
climate change will occur
What are some causes for climatic change?
Some causes for climate change would be mostly due to human activity. After cars and factories were made this has caused lots of pollution. many green house gases have been let out into our atmosphere. green house gases are gases that get trapped in earth's atmosphere that help maintain earth's temperature. Although if there are too much green house gases in our atmosphere such as carbon dioxide, earth's temperature will begin to rise. this process is called global warming.
Why is green energy important to the future of plants?
By increasing our dependence on green energy our dependence on fossil fuel will decrease and hence a balance of different gases in the air will be maintained. Thus plants will be saved from effects of climate change.
Why do scientists believe that the process in which carbon is released as carbon dioxide is causing your climate to change?
Because they have [experimentally] determined that carbon dioxide {CO2} is a significant green-house gas. Green-house gases let electromagnetic Solar radiation In yet then prevent any re-radiation of it back into Space.

What is the major concern of the Green Party?
The Environment and Climate Change.
How does the green hose and the ozone layer effect climate change?
Ozone depletion causes global warming. It then causes climate change.
What was the green party position in industry and agriculture?
The green party position in Industry and agriculture is 35-50% of climate destabilizing greenhouse gases that are produced are the green party position.
was theron Cody bill Cody?
No but they were related. Buffalo Bill Cody was a cousin of Theron. Buffalo Bill was concerned about climate change due to the green house gases (methane) that the huge buffalo herds generated and did something about it. Theron was a scientist and a man-of-quality. He was also concerned about climate change but his contributions were not as dramatic.
What is an alliteration for environment?
Green Grass
Which Atmospheric components have led to Global Warming and climate change?
Collectively, and actually too numerous to List, they are known as Green-House Gases. Some have their very low Concentrations Offset By their Hyper-chemical-activity.
