Explanation: Green house gases are gases which have the property of absorbing heat radiated from the earth's surface. Greenhouse gases are responsible for the greenhouse effect, which is an increase of heat in the atmosphere, leading to global warming. The main green house gases are carbon dioxide, methane and water vapors.

Use of coal, gas or oil which are all fossil fuels, to generate steam that is used to drive turbines that produce electricity. But they produce carbon dioxide as a pollutant which results in green house effect.

Nuclear power plants use the heat produced by nuclear fission to generate steam to drive turbines. During fission no green house gases are emitted.
