Message definition (Climate change mitigation)
Greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions are measured in [[Global warming potential#Carbon dioxide equivalent|{{CO2}} equivalents]]. Scientists determine their {{CO2}} equivalents from their [[global warming potential]] (GWP). This depends on their lifetime in the atmosphere. There are widely used [[Carbon accounting|greenhouse gas accountin]]g methods that convert volumes of methane, nitrous oxide and other greenhouse gases to [[Global warming potential#Carbon dioxide equivalent|carbon dioxide equivalents]]. Estimates largely depend on the ability of oceans and land sinks to absorb these gases. [[Short-lived climate pollutants]] (SLCPs) persist in the atmosphere for a period ranging from days to 15 years. Carbon dioxide can remain in the atmosphere for millennia. Short-lived climate pollutants include [[methane]], [[Hydrofluorocarbon|hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs)]], [[tropospheric ozone]] and [[black carbon]].
