Question
Name four Greenhouse gases.
Answer
Greenhouse gases (GHGs) are gases in Earth's atmosphere that have the ability to trap heat, thereby contributing to the greenhouse effect. The greenhouse effect is a natural phenomenon that helps keep the Earth's surface warmer than it would be if the heat were allowed to escape freely into space. Examples of GHGs include:
1. Carbon dioxide (CO2)
2. Chlorofluorocarbons (CFS)
3. Methane
4. Nitrous oxide (N2O)
