Abstract

The topic of interest focus on understanding of components and source for Greenhouse Gas (GHG). It also says about the anthropogenic activities and natural process responsible for GHG generation. Emission inventories of natural and anthropogenic emissions are used by scientists as inputs to air quality models, by policy makers to develop strategies and policies or track progress of standards, and by facilities and regulatory agencies to establish compliance records with allowable emission rates. E-commerce, computer climate models and counter effect properties of sulfur dioxide has also changed the view about manage- ment of GHG. The discovery of new potent GHG, trifluoromethyl sulfur pentafluoride (SF5CF3) is considered the most potent GHG measured till date. The objectives, responsibilities and organizational behavior of intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) is of importance to the people involved in the GHG management and reporting of GHG emission inventories.
