Is Nicor Gas setting the price of natural gas?

Gas Cost Frequently Asked Questions - Nicor

What are greenhouse gas (ghg) emissions?

ETF FAQs
Greenhouse gas emissions are gases that trap heat in the Earth's atmosphere. Without greenhouse gases the average global temperature would go from 59 degrees Fahrenheit to 0 degrees Fahrenheit. The most notable greenhouse gases are carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4), nitrous oxide (N2O), halocarbons that contain fluorine such as hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs) and perfluorocarbons (PFCs), and sulfur hexafluoride (SF6) (EPA 2003c). Each greenhouse gas differs in its ability to hold heat.

Why is there concern about greenhouse gas emissions?

ETF FAQs
Scientists know for certain that human activities are changing the composition of Earth's atmosphere. Increasing levels of greenhouse gases, like carbon dioxide (CO2 ), in the atmosphere since pre-industrial times have been well documented. There is no doubt this atmospheric buildup of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases is largely the result of human activities. It's well accepted by scientists that greenhouse gases trap heat in the Earth's atmosphere and tend to warm the planet.
