Human activities may contribute to climate change by causing
changes in Earth's atmosphere in the amounts of greenhouse gases
(CO2, CH4, N2O and the halocarbons, a group of gases containing
fluorine, chlorine and bromine linked to carbon), aerosols (small
particles), and cloudiness. The largest known contribution comes
from the burning of fossil fuels, which releases carbon dioxide,
water vapour and other gases to the atmosphere. Significant
increases in all of these gases have occurred in the industrial era
because most of these gases accumulate in the atmosphere, causing
concentrations to increase with time. This book presents and
discusses the latest research in the climate change field and its
relation to pollution.
