reblog: “The Big 3: CO2, CH4, N2O”, from Tamino
Greenhouse gases seen from the perspective of their marginal radiative forcings. This is a nice normalization of how much we should care about each. Note the context in the figure below (found on Mr Smiths Physics at Weebly.com): (Click on … Continue reading
