Human activities have significantly increased the concentration of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, intensifying the greenhouse effect and contributing to global climate change. Since CO2 is the most abundant greenhouse gas to be released into the atmosphere, the effect of the others is calculated with respect to it through the global warming potential, which estimates the energy-trapping capability of a gas with respect to CO2 over a 100-years period. Among all the main other greenhouse gases, N2O has a global warming potential of around 270, while its concentration is about 3 orders of magnitude smaller than the one of CO2, leading to a contribution to heat-trapping approximately equal to the 25% of the one of CO2.
