4.13 Greenhouse gases



Notes


Human activity (fossil fuels) ---> Increased (CO2, NO2) <-- GHG & SO2


  - Industrial
  - Vehicles
  - Domestic (homes)
  - Farming = cows digest crops, emit methane gas to GHE (9% of gases)
  -Water vapour = clouds are main contributors
  - Refrigeration (CFCs) = absorption of UV light, catalysing breakdown of Ozone layer
