ABSTRACT
Because they trap infrared radiation in the Earth’s atmosphere, greenhouse gases (GHGs) like carbon dioxide (CO₂), methane (CH₄), nitrous oxide (N₂O), and fluorinated gases play a major role in climate change and global warming. With an emphasis on their sources, sinks, and chemical changes, this study investigates the atmospheric chemistry of GHGs. Anthropogenic emissions and natural processes like photochemical reactions and the carbon cycle are both critically examined. The study also looks at enhanced catalytic technologies for the breakdown of methane and nitrous oxide, carbon capture and storage (CCS), and the use of biochar as control mechanisms to reduce GHG concentrations. Policies encouraging lower emissions and the possibility of integrating renewable energy are also covered. To effectively battle climate change, this study attempts to close the knowledge gap between atmospheric chemistry insights and realistic control measures by offering a thorough grasp of GHG management.
