The most important greenhouse gases emitted by human activity are carbon dioxide (CO2<\/sub>), methane (CH4<\/sub>), a combined group of gases called halocarbons, and nitrous oxide (N2<\/sub>O). These are gases that contribute to an increase in temperature and where the concentration in the atmosphere is affected by human activities such as deforestation and fossil combustion.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
