Greenhouse gas - Wikipedia
Greenhouse gases trap some of the heat that results when sunlight heats the Earth's surface. Three important greenhouse gases are shown symbolically in this image: carbon dioxide, water vapor, and methane. Physical drivers of global warming that has happened so far.
Overview of Greenhouse Gases | US EPA
Gases that trap heat in the atmosphere are called greenhouse gases. This section provides information on emissions and removals of the main greenhouse gases to and from the atmosphere. Click on a greenhouse gas below to learn about its emissions in more detail.

Standards & Guidance GHG Protocol supplies the world's most widely used greenhouse gas accounting standards and guidance.
Greenhouse Gases – Definition, Types, and Environmental Impact
Greenhouse gases (GHGs) are atmospheric gases that absorb and re-emit infrared radiation (heat), warming Earth’s surface and lower atmosphere. Without these gases, Earth would be inhospitably cold.
What Are Greenhouse Gases and Why Do They Matter
Greenhouse gases (GHGs) are a category of gases that absorb heat energy emitted from the planet's surface and they remain in Earth's atmosphere for a long time (from decades to centuries).

NOAA Greenhouse Gas (GHG) Monitoring & Services
Greenhouse gas concentrations, the global temperature across land and oceans, global sea level and ocean heat content all reached record highs in 2023, according to the 34th annual State of the Climate report.
Greenhouse Gases | Earth.gov
Greenhouse gases (GHGs) refers to a suite of gases, including carbon dioxide and methane, found in Earth's atmosphere that naturally trap heat and maintain Earth's global temperature.
Greenhouse gases - World Meteorological Organization
According to WMO’s Greenhouse Gas Bulletin, released in 2025, atmospheric levels of the three main greenhouse gases - carbon dioxide, methane and nitrous oxide all reached levels not seen for 16 million years, when the Earth was much warmer than the present day.
