In making a case against CO2 as a greenhouse gas, the Galileo Movement relies on irrelevant facts while omitting pertinent ones. Skip to main content. Scientific American. August 16, 2011.

The most notorious greenhouse gas is carbon dioxide (CO2) Carbon dioxide is part of the natural cycle that keeps Earth liveable. It helps to act like a blanket, trapping heat to keep temperatures ...

Carbon dioxide is a greenhouse gas, one of the four main ones. In terms of US greenhouse gas emissions, here's a list by amounts from the Environmental Protection Agency: Carbon dioxide, 79%.

Carbon dioxide is the chief greenhouse gas. CO2 is released into the atmosphere by many natural processes, such as the respiration of animals and plants, which give off CO2 at night when sunlight ...

The claim: CO2 from humans represents 3.2% of total CO2 in the atmosphere and 0.12% of all greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. A June 14 Facebook post (direct link, archive link) uses pie charts ...

Carbon Dioxide is perhaps the most vilified greenhouse gas, and for good reason. It accounted for 80 percent of all U.S. greenhouse gas emissions in 2019, according to the Environmental Protection ...

CO2 is the greenhouse gas by which all others are measures, and the unit they're measured by is called the CO2 equivalent, or CO2e, and each greenhouse gas is essentially measured by its potential ...

A case in point: Turning methane (a powerful greenhouse gas) into carbon dioxide (also a planet-warming pollutant) could help fight climate change, researchers say. It’s not that CO2 isn’t a ...

A team of 60 international scientists report that by early 2028 society will have emitted enough greenhouse gases that the ...

Carbon dioxide is not the only greenhouse gas under fire at the COP28 climate summit in Dubai, United Arab Emirates. On 2 December, the UAE, the US and China are convening other countries for a ...

These gases are a major concern because, though they currently only represent around 2 per cent of total greenhouse gases, their GWP is tens of thousands of times greater than carbon dioxide.
