Emissions of Methane & Nitrous Oxide from Natural Sources
Methane (CH4) and Nitrous Oxide (N2O) are greenhouse gases, meaning that they trap infrared radiation (heat) from the earth's surface and increase the temperature of the earth. Without this natural greenhouse effect, temperatures would be about 33 degrees Celsius (60 degrees Fahrenheit) lower than they are now, and life as we know it today would not be possible. During the past century, humans have substantially added to the amount of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere through activities such as burning fossil fuels and deforestation. The added gases are enhancing the natural greenhouse effect, and very likely contributing to an increase in g…
