ABSTRACT
This chapter discusses the fundamentals of Green House Gas Emissions Management. Despite statements by many unqualified and biased political officials, 97% of climate scientists agree that the climate is changing primarily due to man-made greenhouse gas emissions. The major man-made greenhouse gases in the earth's atmosphere are carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxides, and small amounts of chlorinated or fluorinated elements. As with controlling our use of energy, Dr Woodroof explains that the first step in controlling our production of greenhouse gases is the measurement and accounting of what we are producing in the form of greenhouse gases. Greenhouse gases are those gases in the atmosphere that allow heat in the form of direct solar radiation to pass through them as the solar radiation comes to the earth’s surface and is absorbed and then some is re-radiated at a lower frequency.
