The concentration of greenhouse gases in the air, largely water vapor, carbon dioxide and methane, are causing an enhanced greenhouse effect which is global warming.
The amounts of greenhouse gases in the air are:
Water vapor absorbs heat like other greenhouse gases.
Greenhouse gases in the atmosphere are measured using instruments like spectrometers and satellites that can detect and quantify the concentration of these gases in the air. Scientists collect data from various locations around the world to monitor and track changes in greenhouse gas levels over time.
Greenhouse gases, like carbon dioxide, trap heat in the Earth's atmosphere, leading to the warming of the air near the surface. This process is known as the greenhouse effect and is essential for maintaining Earth's temperature within a range suitable for supporting life. However, human activities have increased the concentration of greenhouse gases, contributing to global warming and climate change.
Increasing the CO2 concentration in the atmosphere
To sequester means to keep away from other things so sequestering greenhouse gases means to contain the gases in a location away from other gases. Greenhouse gases are building up in the atmosphere, so scientists are investigating ways of pumping them underground.
Greenhouse gases are gases that trap heat in the Earth's atmosphere. The main characteristics that determine if a gas is a greenhouse gas include its ability to absorb and emit infrared radiation, its concentration in the atmosphere, and its longevity in the atmosphere. These gases contribute to the greenhouse effect, which leads to global warming and climate change.
Greenhouse gasses are NOT "obviously lighter than air"; carbon dioxide is significantly heavier than air.One way to weigh something that's lighter than air is to weigh it in a vacuum.
Yes and No. This Answer depends fully upon the Source of the Power for the air-conditioners.

Greenhouse gases can be very hot, so once they get out into the air, the climate gets hotter.
Increasing the CO2 concentration in the atmosphere
Because it is all but certain that this increase will be extremely detrimental to the Earth's Future. Additional greenhouse gases are causing an enhanced (or accelerated) greenhouse effect which is causing global warming.
carbon/greenhouse gases
To sequester means to keep away from other things so sequestering greenhouse gases means to contain the gases in a location away from other gases. Greenhouse gases are building up in the atmosphere, so scientists are investigating ways of pumping them underground.
Yes, both absolutely and completely. Because most electricity is still produced by burning fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas), the use of that energy is responsible for additional greenhouse gases in the atmosphere.
there are many pollutants. These are greenhouse gases.
