Global net anthropogenic greenhouse gas emissions include carbon dioxide from fossil fuel combustion and industrial processes, net carbon dioxide from land use, land use change and forestry, methane, nitrous oxide, and fluorinated gases. Between 2010 and 2018, Chevron is analyzed to have dedicated only 0.2%

For some parts of the spectrum, the IR can be either absorbed by CO 2 or by water vapour or by clouds, but taking those overlaps into account we find that 50% of the greenhouse effect is from water vapour, 25% from clouds, and about 20% from CO 2 and the rest absorbed by ozone, aerosols, and other trace gases ( Schmidt et al, 2010 ).

So when this industry and its drilling took off in the late otss, you know, 2009, 2010, we were sort of in the right place at the right time. Finally, this industry has fugitive emissions of methane and the burning of gas releases carbon dioxide. And over the last 15 years, I've spent regular time in Danville.
