Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

The burning of fossil fuels releases large amounts of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere, which is the primary greenhouse gas responsible for global warming. While methane from rice paddies and nitrous oxide from volcanic eruptions contribute to warming, they are not as significant as carbon dioxide from fossil fuel burning. CFCs are also potent greenhouse gases but are no longer used due to international agreements, and their contribution to warming has decreased.
