Which nation is the leader in greenhouse gas emissions?
China has recently overtaken the US in the annual production of greenhouse gas emissions.The US is still the leader in the long-termamounts of pollution emitted.
What countries produce the most greenhouse gases?
The country of China has now (2011) surpassed the US as the single greatest greenhouse gas producer.In order the China, United States and Russia top the list. Blocs of countries like the European Union are significant contributors.A:China is the leading producer of greenhouse gases. China produces 22.3% of the world's annual CO2 emissions while the United States is in a close second with 19.91% of the world's annual CO2 emissions. A:In 2000, Belize topped the per capita greenhouse gas emissions list of tonnes of CO2e (carbon dioxide equivalent) with landuse change, such as deforestation, with a shocking 93.9 tonnes of CO2e per capita, as it is a developing nation. Qatar, on the other hand topped the per capita greenhouse gas emissions list of tonnes of CO2e (carbon dioxide equivalent) without landuse change with 54.7 tonnes of CO2e per capita. China is the primary producer of GHG emissions with the United States and India close behind.China
How does carbon trading work?
Carbon trading is part of a carbon pricing mechanism to reduce greenhouse gas emissions by industry. Each year, the government decides on the total amount of greenhouse gases it will allow industries to emit from all activities. Each business that is a major source of greenhouse gas emissions is allowed to buy (or is granted free) an annual quota of permits to produce greenhouse gases, so that all such permits equal the national target for the year. If the business modifies its processes such as to reduce its greenhouse emissions, it can sell its unwanted permits to the highest bidder. If another business wants to expand and exceed the limit imposed by its own quota, it can buy permits from another business. Thus, there is an incentive for a business to reduce its emissions so that it can sell its permits at a profit, and so that it does not have to pay an increasingly high price for permits on the secondary market. By this means, the government can control, then reduce, the total greenhouse gases produced in the state or nation. It can gradually reduce this limit in line with the long-term national target.

Has America ratified its agreement to the Kyoto Protocol?
At the Kyoto Convention, the United States committed to specific targets for the reduction in its annual emissions of greenhouse gases. However, political opposition resulted in that agreement not being ratified.
What is the production of greenhouse gasses?
From several sources it was calculated that the world annual emissions of the big 4 GHGs were as follows. The data does not account for water vapour or natural emissions. * CO2 30 billion tons * CH4 7 billion tons * Nitrous Oxide 3 billion * Fluorocarbons 3 billion
How much financial assistance did European Union agree to give to the developing nations and for what service?
by 2020 developing countries are likely to face annual costs of around 100 billion euros to megitate their greenhouse gas emissions and adapt to the impact of climate change.
Who has the highest annual salary?
R216000
How is Canada dealing with climate changes?
We are investing in green technologies, transit systems and a cap and trade system for carbon dioxide. Some jurisdictions such as Alberta have intiatited annual reporting on GHG emissions and linked them to annual fees. Annual emissions are tracked under the National Pollution Reporting System (NPRI).
If the present greenhouse effect trend continues into the year 2100 earths annual average temperature could?
Due to the Greenhouse Effect, Earth's temperature is continually rising. If the trend does not change, the Earth's annual temperature will continue to rise, causing significant ecological problems.
