The gas methane (CH4) is 21 times more powerful than carbon dioxide (CO2).
Carbon Dioxide (CO2) is given a Global Warming Potential measure of 1.There are many green house gases that cause global warming but the gas used as reference to calculate global warming potential is carbon dioxide (Co2)
Methane is the gas released from landfills with 21 times more global warming potential than a molecule of CO2.
Global warming. Possibly pollution such as gas in a car.
Carbon dioxide (CO2) is the gas released from burnt fossil fuels. It is the most significant gas contributing to global warming.
Sulfur hexafluoride (SF6) is a gas that is entirely anthropogenic, meaning it is created by human activities. It is a potent greenhouse gas with a high global warming potential.

Global warming doesn't produce any gas. It is caused by greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide and methane.
Methane (CH4) is calculated as having a Global Warming Potential (GWP) of 86 over 20 years, and 34 over 100 years (much more powerful than CO2 which has a GWP of 1).
Methane is the gas that is released from cows and rice fields. It is a potent greenhouse gas that contributes to global warming.
The main global problems of clearing forests and increased gas emissions are global warming and acid rain. The clearing of forests means additional carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, causing global warming. Increased gas emissions also contribute to global warming and acid rain.
Most electricity is generated by burning fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas). This releases carbon dioxide, a greenhouse gas which is causing global warming. So the use of any electrical appliance contributes to global warming.
Greenhouse gas is adding to global warming and climate change.
The greenhouse gas released by refrigerators and air cooling systems that causes global warming is hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs). HFCs are potent synthetic gases that have a high global warming potential and contribute to the depletion of the ozone layer. Efforts are being made to phase out the use of HFCs and replace them with more environmentally friendly alternatives.
