This also aids in preventing the continuous rise in tropospheric temperature due to the green house effect of CO2.
Climate change could alter terrestrial ecosystems, which are important sources and sinks of the potent green-house gases (GHGs) nitrous oxide (N2O) and methane (CH4), in ways that either stimulate or decrease the magnitude and duration of global warming.
It produces considerable strain on fossile fuel reserves and lead to increase green house gas emissions also.
Buildings have now a days become the largest producer of green house gases, thus making them a potential option for analysis.
On the other hand, the CO2 has been contributing to the green house effects.
Dependence of the industry and other energy sector consumptions to fossil fuels, leads to spread the green house gases especially co2 which is threatening the human's health and extinction of plant and animal species.
The solution to the environmental impacts of refrigerant gases would therefore pass by a gas which contains no chlorine no fluorine and does not reject any CO2 emissions in the atmosphere, in brief a green gas!

The rate of increase gives compelling evidence for the positive feedback between surface temperature, water vapour and the green-house effect; the magnitude of the feedback is consistent with that predicted by climate models.
Nevertheless, this increase contributes to green house gas, pollutant emissions and noise annoyance at local level.
Accumulation of these gases in the atmosphere may follow intensification of green house effect and cause global sea warming.
This ultimately results in reduction of green house gases which will help to reduce green house effect.
This continuous increase in the concentration of the green house gases will result in more severe changes in the eco system and may cause imbalance in the nature.
And green house gas emission is in dangerous level.
Thomson [1995] argues that an enhanced green-house effect may be altering the seasonal cycle in temperature.
The contribution of change in population to change in green house gas emissions is shown to be significant, but not dominant in both industrialized and developing regions."
These changes are qualita- tively consistent with those expected from increased green- house gases in the atmosphere.
