What are greenhouse gases?

31/05/2024

Greenhouse gases are a group of natural gases and man-made gases in the earth's atmosphere that have special properties to absorb and store infrared radiation (Infrared Radiation). These gases are like insulators. hot Make the world a phenomenon “Greenhouse” is like the roof of a greenhouse. Helps maintain global temperatures warm and suitable for the survival of living things. But if there is too much, it may cause “Global warming”

Greenhouse gases are composed of various gases as follows:

Carbon dioxide (CO2) : is a greenhouse gas that humans release from activities such as burning fossil fuels. Deforestation, etc.
Methane (CH4) : Caused by agricultural activities. Decomposition of organic matter, etc.
Nitrous oxide (N2O) : Caused by agricultural activities. Fuel combustion, fertilizer use, etc.
Hydrofluorocarbon gas (HFCs) : is a synthetic gas used to replace CFCs.
Perfluorocarbon gas (PFCs) : is a synthetic gas used in the electronics industry.
Sulfur hexafluoride gas (SF6) : It is a synthetic gas used in the electrical industry.
Nitrogen trifluoride gas. (NF3) : It is a synthetic gas used in the electronics industry.

The effects of greenhouse gases are

Global warming: Increased greenhouse gas emissions Causing more infrared radiation to be stored As a result, global temperatures will rise. Global warming occurs
Climate change: Global warming affects the world's climate. Natural disasters such as storms, floods, droughts, etc. occur.
Sea level rise: Higher temperature causing glaciers to melt sea level rise
Impact on the ecosystem: Seriously affecting plants and animals struggling to adapt to rising temperatures and changing weather patterns.
Impact on human health: Extreme heat causes heat-related diseases such as heat stroke and heart disease. Additionally, drought can lead to dehydration and starvation.

Guidelines for solving greenhouse gas emissions at the organizational level

Addressing greenhouse gas emissions at the enterprise level is critical to combating climate change. Organizations can take a number of actions to reduce their greenhouse gas emissions.

Measure and track greenhouse gas emissions

The first step to solving the problem is to measure and track an organization's greenhouse gas emissions. This can be done by calculating the carbon footprint. It measures the total amount of greenhouse gases an organization emits in a year. When the organization knows the information about greenhouse gas emissions They can begin to identify key sources of greenhouse gas emissions and develop strategies to reduce them.

Set a goal to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.

When the organization knows the information about greenhouse gas emissions They can set targets for reducing greenhouse gas emissions. Goals should be challenging but achievable. and should be consistent with global goals for reducing greenhouse gas emissions. Thailand has a greenhouse gas reduction target proposed to the international community (National Determined Contribution - NDC). By 2030, greenhouse gas reduction must be reduced by 20 - 25 percent from normal operations.

Develop strategies to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.

Organizations need to develop strategies to achieve their greenhouse gas emissions reduction targets. This strategy may include measures such as improving energy efficiency. Switching to renewable energy sources reducing travel waste management and sustainable procurement

Execute the strategy

When an organization develops a strategy It must be carried out according to strategy. This requires commitment and discipline from both leaders and organizational employees.

Measure and report results

It is important to measure and report on progress towards achieving greenhouse gas emissions reduction targets. This information can help organizations identify areas for improvement and track progress over the long term.
