Is smoke a greenhouse gas?

Smoke isn't a gas in itself - it's a collection of gases. The composition of smoke depends on what exactly you are burning. Wood smoke, for example, contains a lot of carbon dioxide, which is a greenhouse gas. Most smoke contains carbon dioxide, as well as other greenhouse gases such as nitrogen.


Who created air pollution?

Air pollution is created by human activities such as burning fossil fuels, transportation emissions, industrial processes, agriculture practices, and waste disposal. These activities release pollutants into the atmosphere, leading to a degradation of air quality and negative impacts on human health and the environment.


What kind of pollution do exhaust fumes and smoke create?

Exhaust fumes and smoke create air pollution, specifically contributing to the release of harmful substances such as carbon monoxide, nitrogen oxides, and particulate matter into the atmosphere. These pollutants can have negative health impacts on humans, animals, and the environment.


Do incinerators create smoke?

Incinerators can produce smoke if the combustion process is not completely efficient. Properly operated and maintained incinerators that reach high temperatures can minimize smoke emissions and pollutants. Regular monitoring and maintenance are important to ensure minimal smoke production.


What is fog made thicker by smoke?
