And where do they originate? This article provides the answers.<\/p>\n<h2>What Do Greenhouses and \u00a0Earth\u2019s Climate Have in Common?<\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In a greenhouse, electromagnetic radiation from the sun passes through the transparent walls and roofs, mostly as visible light. When this radiation hits interior surfaces, they absorb it and heat up.<\/p>\n<div class=\"box success  \"><div class=\"box-inner-block\"><i class=\"fa tie-shortcode-boxicon\"><\/i>\n\t\t\tThese surfaces then emit radiation of longer wavelengths, which are reflected or absorbed by the glass. \n\t\t\t<\/div><\/div>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The heat becomes trapped, raising the temperature of the air and objects inside the greenhouse. Greenhouse gases function similarly. They allow shortwave solar radiation to pass through but partially absorb or reflect the longwave thermal radiation emitted by the Earth\u2019s surface.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-5166 size-full aligncenter\" title=\"Greenhouse effect\" src=\"https:\/\/kluthe.com\/magazin\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/treibhausgaseffekt.jpg\" alt=\"Greenhouse effect\" width=\"900\" height=\"639\" srcset=\"https:\/\/kluthe.com\/magazin\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/treibhausgaseffekt.jpg 900w, https:\/\/kluthe.com\/magazin\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/treibhausgaseffekt-300x213.jpg 300w, https:\/\/kluthe.com\/magazin\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/treibhausgaseffekt-768x545.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">\u00a9 Siberian Art \u2013 stock.adobe.comThis distinguishes them from the main components of air, namely nitrogen and oxygen, which let both short and long waves pass through almost without obstruction. The reason lies in molecular structure: Heat is the motion of atoms within a substance. Nitrogen and oxygen molecules consist of only two atoms and can only vibrate in limited ways. Greenhouse gases, by contrast, have three or more atoms and can vibrate in more complex patterns, which allows them to absorb or reflect a wider range of wavelengths and thus trap more heat.<\/p>\n<h2>Why Are Greenhouse Gases Harmful?<\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">The most important greenhouse gases are water vapor and carbon dioxide. Both have existed in Earth\u2019s atmosphere long before industrialization. Water vapor enters the atmosphere via evaporation and remains there until it condenses into clouds and returns to the ground as rain, snow, or hail.<\/p>\n<div class=\"box info  \"><div class=\"box-inner-block\"><i class=\"fa tie-shortcode-boxicon\"><\/i>\n\t\t\t\n<p>Carbon dioxide is released through the respiration of living organisms. Plants absorb it and use it as a nutrient. Over millions of years, this exchange created a natural balance that maintained temperatures on our planet within a habitable range.<\/p>\n\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/div>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Industrialization, transportation, and intensive agriculture have disrupted this balance. Over the past 200 years, human activity has significantly increased carbon dioxide concentrations and introduced other greenhouse gases into the atmosphere. The result has been rising temperatures. \u00a0The warmer air holds more moisture, and a thawing permafrost releases even more gases.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/kluthe.com\/en\/sustainability\/\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter wp-image-5169 size-full\" title=\"The carbon footprint takes into account greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide (CO\u2082), methane (CH\u2084), nitrous oxide (N\u2082O), and many others\" src=\"https:\/\/kluthe.com\/magazin\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/nachhaltige-chemie-aus-heidelberg.jpg\" alt=\"Kluthe: GREEN ALL-AROUND BY TRADITION\" width=\"900\" height=\"418\" srcset=\"https:\/\/kluthe.com\/magazin\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/nachhaltige-chemie-aus-heidelberg.jpg 900w, https:\/\/kluthe.com\/magazin\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/nachhaltige-chemie-aus-heidelberg-300x139.jpg 300w, https:\/\/kluthe.com\/magazin\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/nachhaltige-chemie-aus-heidelberg-768x357.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">This creates a feedback loop that intensifies the greenhouse effect. The consequences include extreme weather events, melting ice masses, and infrastructure damage, which in turn impact supply chains for raw materials and energy. Rivers and lakes dry up during droughts, affecting industries such as chemicals and energy that \u00a0depend on water for cooling. When water levels drop and temperatures rise, discharging wastewater into rivers becomes unsustainable. In some cases, discharge bans must be issued to protect ecosystems\u2014bringing chemical production to a standstill. In short: Emitting greenhouse gases, in the chemical industry and beyond, is ultimately self-destructive.<\/p>\n<h2 style=\"text-align: justify;\">What Greenhouse Gases Exist?<\/h2>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">In addition to water vapor and carbon dioxide, other major contributors to the greenhouse effect include methane, nitrous oxide, hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs), perfluorocarbons (PFCs), sulfur hexafluoride (SF\u2086), and nitrogen trifluoride (NF\u2083). HFCs and PFCs belong to the group known as fluorinated gases (F-gases). In the United States, emissions of these substances from building operations, transportation, agriculture, and industry are measured and reported annually through the Environmental Protection Agency\u2019s Greenhouse Gas Reporting Program. This monitoring ensures transparency and helps shape both domestic climate policy and international commitments. Other climate-relevant substances include ground-level ozone, nitrogen dioxide (NO\u2082), sulfur dioxide (SO\u2082), and ammonia (NH\u2083).<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_5183\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-5183\" style=\"width: 900px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-5183 size-full\" title=\"CO\u2082-Carbon-Emission\" src=\"https:\/\/kluthe.com\/magazin\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/CO2-Kohlenstoff-Emissionen.jpg\" alt=\"CO\u2082-Carbon-Emission\" width=\"900\" height=\"454\" srcset=\"https:\/\/kluthe.com\/magazin\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/CO2-Kohlenstoff-Emissionen.jpg 900w, https:\/\/kluthe.com\/magazin\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/CO2-Kohlenstoff-Emissionen-300x151.jpg 300w, https:\/\/kluthe.com\/magazin\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/CO2-Kohlenstoff-Emissionen-768x387.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-5183\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">\u00a9 j-mel \u2013 stock.adobe.com<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Thanks to progress in chemistry, emissions of many of these substances have steadily decreased across all sectors. However, their climate impact varies depending on how much thermal radiation they can absorb or reflect\u2014and how long they remain in the atmosphere. This is \u00a0measured the Global Warming Potential (GWP), which quantifies the warming effect of a substance over 100 years relative to carbon dioxide.<\/p>\n<p>The GWP values (in CO\u2082 equivalents) are as follows:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Carbon dioxide (CO\u2082): 1<\/li>\n<li>Methane (CH\u2084): 25<\/li>\n<li>Nitrous oxide (N\u2082O): 298<\/li>\n<li>Nitrogen trifluoride (NF\u2083): 17,200<\/li>\n<li>Sulfur hexafluoride (SF\u2086): 22,800<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<div class=\"box info  \"><div class=\"box-inner-block\"><i class=\"fa tie-shortcode-boxicon\"><\/i>\n\t\t\t\n<p>These high values illustrate that even trace amounts of some gases can significantly accelerate global warming.<\/p>\n\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/div>\n<h2>Where Are Greenhouse Gases Generated?<\/h2>\n<h3>Carbon Dioxide<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">CO\u2082 emissions make up the largest share of all greenhouse gases. They are primarily released during energy generation from fossil fuels and fuel combustion in vehicle engines. The chemical industry is particularly energy-intensive. A significant share of its greenhouse gas emissions results from electricity use and from generating steam and hot water for heating. Additionally, many chemical processes release CO\u2082\u2014for example, the production of soda ash, ammonia, and cement. Other large industrial sources include steelmaking and building operations.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_5181\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-5181\" style=\"width: 900px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-5181 size-full\" title=\"CO\u2082 emissions are primarily released during energy generation from fossil fuels and fuel combustion in vehicle engines\" src=\"https:\/\/kluthe.com\/magazin\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Sonnenuntergang-ueber-Industriebetrieb.jpg\" alt=\"CO\u2082 emissions are primarily released during energy generation from fossil fuels and fuel combustion in vehicle engines\" width=\"900\" height=\"566\" srcset=\"https:\/\/kluthe.com\/magazin\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Sonnenuntergang-ueber-Industriebetrieb.jpg 900w, https:\/\/kluthe.com\/magazin\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Sonnenuntergang-ueber-Industriebetrieb-300x189.jpg 300w, https:\/\/kluthe.com\/magazin\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Sonnenuntergang-ueber-Industriebetrieb-768x483.jpg 768w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 900px) 100vw, 900px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-5181\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">\u00a9 mmuenzl \u2013 stock.adobe.com<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h3>Methane<\/h3>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Methane forms when organic matter is broken down by microorganisms in the absence of oxygen.
