ABSTRACT

In order to further explore the relationship between global temperature, geographical location, time and greenhouse gas emissions, and to provide better suggestions for global environmental governance, this article collects temperature data and greenhouse gas emissions data from some cities around the world from 1881 to 2020. The Wilcoxon signed rank test and Shapiro Wilk test were used to investigate the degree of temperature differences between the northern and southern hemispheres. We calculated the grey correlation between the emissions of four greenhouse gases CO₂, CH₄, N2O, SF₆, and the global average annual temperature change, and we established a regression model between the global average annual concentration of four gases and global temperature. It is found that the global temperature is approximately Normal distribution according to the temperature zone division, and the global average annual concentration of carbon dioxide and methane is the main reason for the global temperature rise. Therefore, it is recommended to reduce global carbon dioxide emissions and control their annual concentration between 379.665 and 405.79 ppm, while reducing global methane emissions and controlling their annual concentration between 1831.49 and 1879.59 ppb.
