There are many ways the government can reduce the emission of greenhouse gases. It can encourage the use of renewable resources, such as windmills ans solar for electricity generation. It can encourage, through education or otherwise, people to reduce their use of electricity. It can mandate that motor vehicle manufacturers achieve required average fuel efficiencies. It can place a price on carbon emissions, either as a carbon tax or by implementing a carbon trading scheme. This last will casue businesses to choose low carbon emitting technologies and processes over high carbon emitting ones.

How does greenhouse gas get made?
Most green house gas is made by water evaporating. (About 80%) Next in line is animal and plant decay. (29.7%) These two functions make up 99.7% of all emissions. In terms of man's contribution to the green house gas collect it is mainly to heat, cool and power our homes. This accounts for 51% of our emissions and about 1.8% of all CO2 and .15% of total green house emissions. The remaining .13% of the pie is from all modern technology processes including all transportation, agriculture and such.
