Greenhouse gases cause a warming of the Earth's atmosphere. The most abundant greenhouse gas is carbon dioxide (CO2). The current concentration of CO2 in the atmospheric far exceeds the natural range over the last 650,000 years. The main source of increased CO2 concentrations is human-induced fossil fuel emissions. %9 Report
