3. Global Warming Cause: Methane emissions from animals, agriculture such as nice paddies, and from Arctic sea beds
Methane is another extremely potent greenhouse gas, ranking night behind CO2. When organic matter is broken down by bacteria under oxygen-starved conditions (anaerobic decomposition) as in rice paddies, methane is produced. The process also takes place in the intestines of herbivorous animals, and with the increase in the amount of concentrated production, the levels of methane released into the atmosphere is increasing. Another source of methane is methane clathrate, a compound containing large amounts at methane trapped in the crystal structure of ice. As methane escapes from the Arctic seabed, the rate of global warming will increase significantly
