Carbon Dioxide released by the burning of fossil fuels and deforestation. (CO2 contributes 61% to global warming)
Methane released from agriculture, and biological activities, including decomposition at landfills. (Accounts for 15% of global warming.)
Chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) are man-made chemicals used in refrigerators and other industrial applications. (Accounts for 12% of global warming).
Nitrous oxides from fertilizers and fossil fuel burning (4%)
Others: ozone, halons, water vapour (8%)

When humans burn fossils what is released back into the atmosphere?
When humans burn fossil fuels, such as gasoline or coal, they release carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases into the atmosphere. These greenhouse gases contribute to global warming and climate change by trapping heat in the Earth's atmosphere.
When humans burn fossil fuels what is released back.into the atmosphere?
When humans burn fossil fuels, carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4), and other greenhouse gases are released back into the atmosphere. These gases contribute to the greenhouse effect, trapping heat and causing global warming and climate change.
When human burn fossil fuels what is released back into the atmosphere?
When humans burn fossil fuels, carbon dioxide (CO2) is released back into the atmosphere. This carbon dioxide is a greenhouse gas that contributes to global warming and climate change.
When did the Greenhouse effect start?
The greenhouse effect has been a natural phenomenon on Earth for millions of years. However, human activities, such as burning fossil fuels, have significantly increased the concentration of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere since the Industrial Revolution, intensifying the greenhouse effect and leading to global warming.
What are anthropogenic greenhouse gases?
Anthropogenic greenhouse gases are gases released into the atmosphere as a result of human activities, such as burning fossil fuels, deforestation, and industrial processes. These gases, like carbon dioxide and methane, trap heat in the Earth's atmosphere and contribute to global warming and climate change.

How have humans changed the atmosphere of the plant in the past years?
They have increased the levels of the greenhouse gases.(Apex)
How humans change the atmosphere of the planet in the past 200 years?
They have increased the levels of greenhouse gases.
How have humans changed the atmosphere of the planted in the past 200 years?
They have increased the levels of the greenhouse gases.(Apex)
What greenhouse gas produced by humans activities has dramatically increased in earths atmosphere?
CO2; Carbon Dioxide
Where in the atmosphere are greenhouse gases?
All of it . . . the largest amount of greenhouse gas is plain old water vapor. (Humidity) Without the greenhouse gasses, the Earth would be an icy ball with no animals, plants, or humans.
Which byproduct of photosynethesis was released into the atmosphere?
The primary byproduct of photosynthesis released into the atmosphere is oxygen. During the process, plants convert carbon dioxide and water into glucose and oxygen, using sunlight as energy. The oxygen produced is then released into the air, which is essential for the survival of aerobic organisms, including humans.

Does global warming result from human actions that increase amount of water vapor in atmosphere?
No, global warming results from humans increasing the amounts of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. There is a certain amount of water vapor in the atmosphere that remains fairly constant and is part of the natural water cycle. In other words, human actions can not increase the water vapor in the atmosphere.
