Human activities that contributed to the Greenhouse effect

Linked below is a good resource to understanding what humans do that adds to the greenhouse effect. It lists the more well known ideas, being that humans burn fossil fuels that add carbon dioxide to the atmosphere and also transportation because it also burns gases contribute. This also lists facts that people may not know, things simple as deforestation adds to the effect, because plants and trees absorb carbon dioxide and some gases through photosynthesis. Also the fact that the way we use land adds to the effect, most obviously if we are building industry buildings it will directly add to the effect.
