Emissions of nitrous oxide—a greenhouse gas more potent than carbon dioxide or methane—continued unabated between 1980 and 2020, a year when more than 10-million metric tons were released into the atmosphere primarily through farming practices, according to a new report by the Global Carbon Project.
Study finds human-caused nitrous oxide emissions grew 40% from 1980–2020, greatly accelerating climate change retrieved 11 June 2024 from https://phys.org/news/2024-06-human-nitrous-oxide-emissions-grew.html
