Environmental policy.

(GHG).

Greenhouse gases are polluting gases that are generally believed to contribute to excessive warming of the earth ('global warming').

The best-known greenhouse gas is carbon dioxide (CO2).


The other five greenhouse gases covered by the Kyoto Protocol (1997) are:

  • Methane (CH4)
  • Nitrous oxide (N2O)
  • Hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs)
  • Perfluorocarbons (PFCs)
  • Sulphur hexafluoride (SF6)


Other greenhouse gases include water vapour (H2O) and ozone (O3).
