We breathe oxygen from the atmosphere, weather systems distribute water, and the ozone in the upper atmosphere protects us from harmful radiation. One of the most well-known ways we have impacted our atmosphere is through the emission of greenhouse gases, which have adversely affected our climate. The volatile chemical precursors (e.g.,
