That would of course include fossil gas, which consists of 85 to 90 percent methane, a significantly more potent heat-trapping gas than carbon dioxide. The EPA finally introduced a much-delayed 1-hour exposure limit for outdoor NO2 in 2010, but there is still no comparable standard for indoor exposure.

The transportation sector is also a substantial source of nitrogen oxides and particulates, both of which are dangerous to human health. Transportation is now the source of 28% of U.S. greenhouse gas emissions, more than the electric power sector. That back-and-forth mostly tracked the briefing.

Greenhouse gases—such as carbon dioxide and methane—have a heat-trapping impact on climate. (12) 15) Although Methane’s presence in the atmosphere is less than Carbon dioxide, during a 100-year timeframe, according to the EPA, Methane holds twenty-five times the heat in the atmosphere than Carbon dioxide.
