6 Monitoring progress: Throughout the project, the team monitors progress to ensure that tasks are being
completed according to the established timelines. Regular progress updates allow the team to identify any
delays or issues early on and take corrective action as needed. Monitoring progress also helps the team stay
accountable and motivated to achieve their goals.
7 Adjusting plans: Despite careful planning, unexpected challenges may arise during the project. Time
management involves being flexible and adaptable to changes in circumstances. If tasks take longer than
expected or priorities shift, the team adjusts their plans accordingly to stay on track and minimize delays.
8 Reviewing and reflecting: After completing the project, the quality circle conducts a review to evaluate their
performance and identify areas for improvement. They reflect on their time management practices, identifying
what worked well and what could be improved in future projects. By learning from their experiences, the team
continuously improves their time management skills and enhances their effectiveness in quality improvement
initiatives.

1 Greenhouse gases - An overview: Gases that trap heat in the atmosphere are called greenhouse gases.
This section provides information on emissions and removals of the main greenhouse gases to and from the
atmosphere. For more information on the other climate forcers, such as black carbon, please visit the Climate
Change Indicators: Climate Forcing page.
• Carbon dioxide (CO ): Carbon dioxide enters the atmosphere through burning fossil fuels (coal, natural
2
gas, and oil), solid waste, trees and other biological materials, and also as a result of certain chemical
reactions (e.g., manufacture of cement). Carbon dioxide is removed from the atmosphere (or “sequestered”)
when it is absorbed by plants as part of the biological carbon cycle.
• Methane (CH ): Methane is emitted during the production and transport of coal, natural gas, and oil.
4
Methane emissions also result from livestock and other agricultural practices, land use and by the decay of
organic waste in municipal solid waste landfills.
• Nitrous oxide (N O): Nitrous oxide is emitted during agricultural, land use, industrial activities, combustion
2
of fossil fuels and solid waste, as well as during treatment of wastewater.
• Fluorinated gases: Hydrofluorocarbons, perfluorocarbons, sulfur hexafluoride, and nitrogen difluoride are
synthetic, powerful greenhouse gases that are emitted from a variety of industrial processes.
2 Global warming
• 2011-2020 was the warmest decade recorded, with global average temperature reaching 1.1°C above
pre-industrial levels in 2019. Human-induced global warming is presently increasing at a rate of 0.2°C per
decade. In increase of 2°C compared to the temperature in pre-industrial times is associated with serious
negative impacts on to the natural environment and human health and wellbeing, including a much higher
