With proposed federal regulation of greenhouse gas emissions by the Securities and Exchange Commission requiring GHG disclosure and new state statutes, including a new Maryland law that requires not only disclosure, but also a mandated reduction in GHG emissions, a greater appreciation of the subject of GHG appears in order.

Some in the industry see the warming as an opportunity, as passages through the Arctic open for longer periods, even going so far as to claim there will be lower overall greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions from the shorter voyages. Anticipating the rate of sea level rise is particularly challenging due to uncertainties in the climate system.

For example, the ongoing debate over the impact of certain pesticides in agriculture , greenhouse gas emissions are often a battle between the science and industry's attempts to muddy the science and government lobbying to roll back legislation (2). Air emissions : Any gas emitted into the atmosphere from industrial or commercial activity.

Over a 20 year period, methane is estimated to be more than 80 times as potent as carbon dioxide in terms of trapping heat in the atmosphere. This makes methane reduction crucial for addressing the urgency of climate change and buying time for the development and implementation of longer term greenhouse gas strategies.

The California Supreme Court declined to review an intermediate appellate court’s decision upholding the statewide greenhouse gas cap-and-trade program. They alleged that the standards could reduce annual greenhouse gas emissions by more than 26 million metric tons and save $24 billion over 30 years.

Regardless, only 30 percent of the nation’s biggest livestock farms, known as concentrated animal feeding operations (CAFOs), have waste discharge permits. Nitrous oxide has been called the “ forgotten greenhouse gas ” because while it is a powerful contributor to climate change, it generates far fewer headlines than carbon dioxide.

The developing science of climatology with its understanding of the need for chemistry made scientists concerned for the future on seeing masses amounts of carbon released into the atmosphere (8) , but also (as it was previously) regarding trees as a resource and the potential for depletion.
