But methane’s role in atmospheric chemistry and as a source of stratospheric water vapour means that it has a bigger effect on climate than just the direct effect of its concentration. Before we go any further though, we need to understand that the effective perturbation time for CO 2 and CH 4 in the atmosphere are very different.

Methane’s Warming Potential : Methane, a colorless, odorless, and highly flammable gas that occurs abundantly in nature and from a variety of anthropogenic activities, has a considerably higher global warming potential than carbon dioxide. In fact, tackling both methane and carbon dioxide emissions can yield substantial benefits.

The program supports electric, ethanol, biodiesel, compressed natural gas (CNG), propane gas, and other cleaner fuel vehicles. Transportation generates 47 percent of nitrogen oxide emissions in Pennsylvania, contributing to the formation of ground-level ozone.

Satellites, for example, are used in meteorology to track weather systems and to monitor atmospheric fronts to predict what the weather will do next. Known as ENSO, they are opposite effects of the same process and are defined as an oscillation (a variation in magnitude) between the temperature of the atmosphere and the ocean.

Air emissions : Any gas emitted into the atmosphere from industrial or commercial activity. Typically used in conjunction with “greenhouse gas” but some emissions are not GHGs. These can be natural events or, as is the case at present, the result of industrial age actions in increasing greenhouse gases and reducing carbon sinks.
