GHG Emissions GHG emissions are gases released into the atmosphere that trap heat, contributing to global warming and climate change. The main types include carbon dioxide (CO₂), methane (CH₄), nitrous oxide (N₂O), and fluorinated gases. To help organizations understand and manage their emissions, they’re classified into three “scopes” based on their source and control level.
