Burning of coal, oil (including gasoline), and natural gas to produce carbon dioxide. Also decomposing of vegetable and animal matter to produce methane.
Antarctica is the only continent that has none of the six major greenhouse gas emitters (carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide, hydrofluorocarbons, perfluorocarbons, and sulfur hexafluoride) as it is largely uninhabited, with no significant industrial activity.

Australia it is!
the two major gases that cause greenhouse gases are methane and carbon dioxideco2, methene, evaporates
The major greenhouse gases include carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide, and fluorinated gases such as chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs). Water vapor is also a significant greenhouse gas, but its levels in the atmosphere are largely influenced by other environmental factors.
Global warming is the increase in Earth's average temperature, largely due to the buildup of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. Greenhouse gases trap heat from the sun, causing the planet to warm. This relationship is a major factor driving climate change.
The largest contributor of greenhouse gases into the atmosphere is the oil and gas company Saudi Aramco. They have consistently been identified as one of the biggest emitters of carbon dioxide globally.

Greenhouse gases must have three atoms, so gases like hydrogen (H2) and Oxygen (O2) are not greenhouse gases.
The glass on the greenhouse stops temperature from leaving or entering like the gases do to the earth.The atmospheric gases are called 'greenhouse gases' based on the idea that the gases 'trap' heat like the walls of a greenhouse do

Carbon dioxide is the major greenhouse gas, though methane and other gases are also important.
The greenhouse effect warms the gases in the atmosphere.
When we speak of global warming, we usually mean the recent increase in average global temperatures. The two gases considered to be the major contributors to this effect are carbon dioxide and methane.
Carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4), and water vapor (H2O) are the major greenhouse gases that trap heat in the Earth's atmosphere. They contribute to the greenhouse effect, which is essential for maintaining Earth's temperature necessary for supporting life.
