∙ 8y ago- The carbon cycle moves carbon in and out of the atmosphere. This cycle is largely neutral in regard to global warming.
- Increased numbers of cattle, as well as poor agricultural practices (rice paddy fields) are adding methane to the atmosphere.
- The burning of fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) in industry, transport and the generation of electricity, releases carbon dioxide.

∙ 11y agoOf all the energy sources, fossil fuels are the only ones that emit greenhouse gases (carbon dioxide (CO2).
Of all the fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas), coalemits the highest rate of greenhouse gases.

∙ 10y agoAll fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) when burnt release carbon dioxide, the greenhouse gas which is causing global warming. Renewable energy (solar, wind, water, hydro, tidal and wave, geothermal, ocean thermal, biomass, biofuel and hydrogen) on the other hand is available. This is non-polluting, emitting no greenhouse gases.

What country produces the most greenhouse gases per square kilometer?
The country that produces the most greenhouse gases per square kilometer is Japan. This country is closely followed by the United Kingdom. The country that produces the most greenhouse gases per capita is Qatar.
What type of fuel produces greenhouse gases?
Biomass
Does geothermal energy emit greenhouse gases?
No, it is not.
Which country produces the most greenhouse gases?
the United States.
What is the climate change that produces greenhouse gases?
Climate change does not produce greenhouse gasses. It is thought that greenhouse gasses are a major cause of climate change.
What is the source of energy in the greenhouse effect?
The Sun is the source of energy. Heat from the sun radiates up from the surface of the earth and warms the greenhouse gases.
What energy source produces largest greenhouse gases?
The burning of coal emits more carbon dioxide than any of the other fossil fuels.
What are two reasons why biomass energy might not be a good alternative energy source?
Growing plants to use for energy uses land that can be used for growing food.Burning plants produces greenhouse gases.
What country produces the most greenhouse gases per square kilometer?
The country that produces the most greenhouse gases per square kilometer is Japan. This country is closely followed by the United Kingdom. The country that produces the most greenhouse gases per capita is Qatar.
What energy source generates the least gases?
Renewable energy produces practically no greenhouse gases, compared to fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas). Hydroelectric power has very little greenhouse gas emissions associated with it. Wind and solar power tend to have low emissions. Geothermal energy also has low emissions. Nuclear power has some greenhouse gas emissions associated with the mining and refining of uranium ore, but not a lot.
What type of fuel produces greenhouse gases?
Biomass
Which cooking fuel is least likely to contribute to the greenhouse effect?
The cooking fuel that is the "dirtiest" has to be coal. This fuel source produces the most greenhouse gases than any of the "-tane" fuels.
By-product of wind energy?
Wind energy is a very clean source of energy and there is no by product. It does not produce any harmful greenhouse gases. Wind power consumes no fuel.
Where the greenhouse gases trap energy?
In the atmosphere
Does geothermal energy emit greenhouse gases?
No, it is not.
What are gases that absorb thermal energy in the atmosphere called?
Greenhouse gases.
Which country produces the most greenhouse gases?
the United States.
