In fact one of the atmosphere's normal functions is its greenhouse effect, without which the Earth would be far, far colder. The risk with rising levels of these gases is in going too far the other way.
A1. Natural gas is methane, CH4. It is a greenhouse gas, but far from the only one. Carbon dioxide, CO2, is the one that we are most concerned about.A2. But man made gases such as sulfur dioxide, and the fluorocarbons, (and more) also play their parts.
"Greenhouse gas" is just a catchy term that means "traps heat." Due to the way the atmosphere is layered, some gases trap more heat than others; CO being about the weakest "greenhouse gas."
Hydroxyl radicals (OH) are significant greenhouse gases that play a crucial role in the atmosphere by reacting with and breaking down other greenhouse gases, such as methane and some chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs). By facilitating the oxidation of these gases, hydroxyl radicals help mitigate their warming effects. However, they are not greenhouse gases in the traditional sense, as they are short-lived in the atmosphere. Instead, they act more as a natural atmospheric cleanser.
Some disadvantages of natural gas include its contribution to greenhouse gas emissions when burned, the potential for methane leaks during extraction and transportation, and the limited supply of natural gas reserves which can eventually run out.
Yes ! Since the industrial revolution - we have been pumping billions of tonnes of pollutants into the atmosphere. Atmospheric pollution disrupts the Earth's natural heating & cooling cycle,

Erm..they r and there not coz some r natural and sum r coz of humans

When coal and oil are burnt to generate electricity, they are converted almost entirely to greenhouse gases. When natural gas is burnt to generate electricity, some of it is converted to water and some is converted to carbon dioxide, a greenhouse gas. Because of this, natural gas is preferable as a fuel, compared to coal and oil. Generating electricity from wind, water flow (hydro-electricity), solar energy and hot rocks (geothermal electricity) emits no greenhouse gases.

The greenhouse effect is some moderating gases (greenhouse gases) that allow energetic radiation to pass, but slow the passage of infrared to space. And molecule with three or more atoms is a greenhouse gas. The hole in the ozone is a natural repeating phenomenon. As the hole forms, more infrared is allowed to radiate to space, and the surface below the hole cools more.
Oxygen, hydrogen, helium, neon and xenon are some types of gases. There are many types of gases being; hydrogen, oxygen, anaesthetic gas, natural gas,helium,neon and carbon dioxide
Some alternative energy sources that do not produce greenhouse gases include solar power, wind power, hydropower, and nuclear power.

Humans produce the greenhouse gases of carbon dioxide (by burning coal, oil and natural gas, all fossil fuels), as well as some methane from our landfill practices and our pig and cattle farming. We also still emit some CFCs and other halon gases.

The process by which gases hold heat in the atmosphere is called the greenhouse effect. This occurs when certain gases in the atmosphere trap heat from the sun, leading to an increase in temperature on Earth. Some of the key greenhouse gases include carbon dioxide, methane, and water vapor.
