1. What are greenhouse gases? What are their emissions from? How are they measured, and what is the primary source, globally, of GHGS? How does deforestation play into these questions? Given what you researched regarding GHG, discuss what carbon footprints are, how the carbon calculator works, the Keeling curve, and do you believe carbon neutral rankings for different companies is a valid claim? Why or why not?
