The issue of reducing greenhouse gas emissions is currently one of the most important problems for urgent solutions in connection with the accelerating process of global warming.
The fact that the development of human civilization is largely responsible for the emission of greenhouse gases is an irrefutable fact confirmed by numerous independent research centers.
However, in individual countries, the development of industry is at various stages of development.
In individual countries, sources of greenhouse gas emissions can be presented in a different source structure of these emissions.
In some countries, in large agglomerations, the main source of greenhouse gas emissions is transport based on traditional combustion of fossil fuels, combustion of low-quality mineral and non-mineral minerals in domestic furnaces, and energy based on mineral combustion.
Therefore, I am asking you the following questions:
And how is greenhouse gas emissions in your countries or cities?
What are the main sources of greenhouse gas emissions in your country, in the cities where you live?
If you live in cities, is smog a problem?
Is smog the problem in your cities mainly in the winter season or also in other seasons?
Is the greenhouse gas emissions structure in your country significantly different compared to global greenhouse gas emissions data?
Please, answer, comments. I invite you to the discussion.

In addition, I note the interesting discussion inspired me to the following considerations:
Can we still avoid a global climatic catastrophe and what should be done to avoid it?
Humanity has reportedly only had a decade of time for the necessary changes in the energy sector to avoid a global climatic catastrophe
Much has to change in consumer awareness, business must change and different social groups should force policies and change legal regulations. It is necessary to develop co-financing of investment projects in the field of renewable energy sources by the state from public funds. In addition, businesses must see this business. The development of renewable energy sources should be profitable, and it is not because it is cheaper to mine minerals, to devastate the natural environment. It is cheap to run classic energy based on mineral combustion because this classic energy and mining industry of hard and brown coal, oil refinery industry, automotive industry of vehicles equipped with internal combustion engines etc. is not burdened with the costs of natural environment devastation, costs of treatment of people who suffer from due to poor air, smog and no negative effects of global warming. If the mining, energy, processing and automotive industries were burdened with these costs, then it would not be worthwhile to devastate and pollute the natural environment. Then it would be more profitable to develop energy and industry based on renewable energy sources. Inventions of electricity have over 100 years of history. 100 years ago, electric cars should be produced, but the oil business this scenario of more sustainable development has crossed out. Therefore, for over 100 years, archaic energy based on the burning of minerals has been developed. During these 100 years, the average temperature of the Earth's surface has increased by 1 degree ° C. From specific scientific studies, it appears that humanity is only 12 years left to make the necessary changes, to switch energy and industry to renewable energy sources and the automotive industry to electromobility, to reduce poor quality of stoves and domestic ovens, on the development of large and small, home solar, wind and other power plants. At the same time, investment projects in renewable energy sources should be widely developed and entire economies should switch to sustainable pro-ecological development according to the concept of a green, new economy. If during this time these changes are not implemented then the average temperature of the Earth until 2030 will increase by another min. 1 degree ° C and then in the following years the greenhouse effect will accelerate and the problem of global warming will become an irreversible process, which will mean the widespread apocalyptic climate disasters covering most of the Earth's surface before the end of the 21st century.
In view of the above, the current question is: Can we still avoid a global climatic catastrophe and what should be done to avoid it?

Every living thing gives off co2 with the exception of plants. But the vast majority to green house gar is contributed by coal consuming industries and petrol/gasoline engine vehicles. the emergence of EV and HEV will reduce the percentile greatly.
Refer : https://www.epa.gov/ghgemissions/global-greenhouse-gas-emissions-data
Coal and fossil/fuel based energy generation plant are the main source of green house gases.
Along with these transportation vehicle based on fuel etc also a big source of green house gases.
Currently, Energy generation from Agrreculture waste materials is also an another source of green house gases.
Here is also some info about the query:
https://www.epa.gov/ghgemissions/global-greenhouse-gas-emissions-data
Gases emissions from the combustion of fuel for cars, trains and other means of transport are one of the reasons, especially after the huge increase in the number of cars and other means of transport across the world
Unfortunately, the problem of sources of greenhouse gas on Earth continues to grow. In many countries, greenhouse gas emissions continue to grow.

The rapid reduction of greenhouse gas emissions is one of the most important factors for the possibility of sustainable pro-ecological economic development based on the concept of a new, green economy. It is necessary to avoid a global climate disaster!
I invite you to the discussion.
The above discussion inspired me to the following considerations:
Is sustainable ecological pro-ecological development based on the concept of a new, green economy necessary to avoid a global climate disaster?
Sustainable proecological economic development based on the concept of a new, green economy regarding entire national economies and future global economies is a necessary future that must be realized in the 21st century if humanity wants to avoid a global climate disaster. Sustainable ecological economic development is based primarily on the creation, development and implementation of large-scale ecological innovations, renewable energy technologies, reduction of greenhouse gas emissions, automation and robotization of the process of sorting waste, recovery of recyclable materials, reclamation of a devastated natural environment, afforestation of post-industrial areas, development of electromobility etc. Apparently humanity has only been a decade of time to implement this plan in order to avoid a global climate disaster resulting from the increasingly faster global warming. According to World Wide Fund for Nature (https://cop.wwf.pl/en) humanity is already an endangered species in the 21st century!
In view of the above, the current question is: Is sustainable ecological pro-ecological development based on the concept of a new, green economy necessary to avoid a global climate disaster?

Here is a short list from the top of my head in relative decreasing order of emission volume.
- human industrial emissions
- human transportation
- human energy consumption (all other)
- volcanic degassing (CO2 and H2O)
- forest fires (and any other natural or unnatural combustion process)
- natural emission from the soil (i.e. CH4 from the permafrost)
- biological respiration and waste (CO2 and CH4)
Dear Friends and Colleagues of RG

Dear Friends and Colleagues of RG Many research centers analyzing Earth's climate changes suggest that in the next decades the increase in the Earth's average temperature will accelerate unless greenhouse gas emissions are quickly and efficiently reduced in the next few years.
Do you agree with my opinion that in the context of the projected acceleration of the global warming process, humanity, in order to avoid global climate catastrophe, should change the classic economy in the 21st century to a new green economy to develop economies according to the concept of sustainable pro-ecological development, including replacing classic energy sources based on the combustion of minerals for renewable energy sources. In addition, in economic processes should be implemented as soon as possible and possibly the largest funds programs for reduction of greenhouse gases?
It is also necessary to develop eco-friendly, material and energy innovations, including in the field of perfecting renewable energy technologies so that pro-ecological energy solutions are ever cheaper to implement and develop and more and more common.

The majority to green house gar is contributed by coal consuming industries and petrol/gasoline engine vehicles.
I think several books have been written on this so we should review the same. Even at school level , these issues have been addressed

Dear Friends and Colleagues of RG Unfortunately, more and more results of climatologists' research confirm the thesis that human civilization activity is the largest source of greenhouse gas emissions and a progressive global warming process. Do you agree with my opinion on this matter?
Please reply
I invite you to the discussion
Thank you very much

The vast majority of anthropogenic carbon dioxide emissions (i.e., emissions produced by human activities) come from combustion of fossil fuels, principally coal, oil, and natural gas, with additional contributions coming from deforestation, changes in land use, soil erosion and agriculture (including livestock).
