United States Trace Gas Network
United States Trace Gas Network United States Trace Gas Network Welcome to the TRAGNET Home Page The atmospheric concentrations of greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4), and nitrous oxide (N2O) are increasing substantially. These increases are expected to result in global warming and changes in precipitation patterns, and may directly affect terrestrial ecosystems. Our ...

Global Climate Change
Historical data from ice cores and modern data collected from the Mauna Loa observatory in Hawaii support this. The graph below depicts a 30% increase in atmospheric ... of the Whitehouse Initiative on Global Climate Change. There is growing evidence that increases in atmospheric concentrations of CO2 may increase the rate of global climate change due to the greenhouse ...

When the annual decline in intensity exceeds the economic growth rate, emissions growth will take a U-turn. Reversing emission growth will eventually stabilise atmospheric concentrations as emissions decline. But an evaluation of Bushs new energy policy by the Dutch institute RIVM calls the emission intensity targets very modest when compared to historical trends and ...

Equity Watch - Global Environmental Government Unit - Centre for Science and Environment (CSE)
Excessive dependence on fossil fuels is causing atmospheric concentrations of greenhouse gases to rise at a high rate, leading to global warming and climate change. Instead of improving matters, the new George Bush administration, in its ...

Global Warming Solution: Carbon Dioxide Personal Quota
The rate at which the various greenhouse gases may be emitted without causing their atmospheric concentrations to rise can be calculated using figures contained in the Technical Assessment prepared by Working ... CO2 concentrations to rise, we can divide this quantity by the probable number of people on Earth, and thus establish how much each of us can emit per year. For convenience, ...

Press Release: Global Warming - Trends: Climate, Atmospheric Change - An Introduction, U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, January 7, 2000
F. However, problems may arise when the atmospheric concentration of greenhouse gases increases. Since the beginning of the industrial revolution, atmospheric concentrations of carbon dioxide have increased nearly 30%, methane concentrations have more than doubled, and nitrous oxide concentrations have risen by ...
