After the gas is released into the atmosphere it stays there, making it difficult for heat to escape - and warming up the planet in the process.
The gas nitrogen dioxide (NO2) comes from burning fossil fuels, car exhaust emissions, and the use of nitrogen-based fertilisers used in agriculture.
Some are visible, such as dust, whereas others cannot be seen by the naked eye.
