Greenhouse gasesᐳᔪᕐᓗᐃᑦ – Gases in the Earth’s atmosphere that trap heat, contributing to the greenhouse effect, such as carbon dioxide and methane. (GHGs) are gases naturally present in the atmosphere. They absorb part of the sun’s rays and retain another part on the earth’s surface. They contribute to the environment’s natural balance. However, since the mid-19th century, human activity has increased the amount of GHGs in the atmosphere and caused an imbalance. This increasing concentration of GHGs traps solar radiation on the planet’s surface and creates warming that causes climate change.
