Global warming is caused primarily by carbon dioxide from burning coal‚ oil and gas. Certain gases that trap heat are building up in Earth’s atmosphere. The primary culprit is carbon dioxide‚ released from burning coal‚ oil and natural gas in power plants‚ cars‚ factories‚ etc. (and to a lesser extent when forests are cleared). The second is methane‚ released from rice paddies‚ both ends of cows‚ rotting garbage in landfills‚ mining operations‚ and gas pipelines. Third are chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs)
