Greenhouse gas or GHG emissions are defined as gas-based air pollution that contribute to climate change and global warming. The most common GHG emission is carbon dioxide, abbreviated CO 2. There are also other GHGs like methane (CH 4) and nitrous oxide (N 2 O). Greenhouse gas emissions trap heat in the atmosphere, which makes the Earth warmer and is the top contributor to global climate change.
