I care enormously more about photochemical smog than I do about "greenhouse gas" as related to CO2. Hydrocarbons are a primary ingredient in photochemical smog.

2.3.1 Photochemical Smog

Photochemical smog is a brownish-gray haze caused by the action of solar ultraviolet radiation on atmosphere polluted with hydrocarbons and oxides of nitrogen.
Water vapor is a MUCH more-potent greenhouse gas than CO2. Tell the politicians to ban sea breezes.

Methane is a MUCH more-potent greenhouse gas than CO2. Tell the frackers to capture it rather than flare--or vent--the stuff. In fact, how much methane was released when "someone" blew holes in the Russian/German natural gas pipeline a week or so ago?

I don't give a shiit about CO2.
