Greenhouse gases (GHG) are chemical compounds present in the Earth's atmosphere that have the ability to retain heat. They contribute to the natural phenomenon known as the greenhouse effect, which is vital to maintaining Earth's temperature suitable for life.
Global average concentrations of carbon dioxide (CO2) were 50% above the pre-industrial era for the first time in 2022 reaching 418 parts per million. A new report from the World Meteorological Organization (WMO) revealed that levels of the main gas that contributes to the warming of the planet continue to rise in 2023.
