Withering is used to remove excess water from the leaves and allows a very slight amount of oxidation. The process is also important in promoting the breakdown of leaf proteins into free amino acids and increase the availability of freed caffeine, both which change the taste of the tea.
As far as Green House Effect is concerned; Carbon monoxide (CO) is only a very weak and insignificant greenhouse gas, but it has important indirect effects on global warming. Carbon monoxide reacts with hydroxyl (OH) radicals in the atmosphere, reducing their abundance. As OH radicals help to reduce the lifetimes of strong greenhouse gases, like methane, carbon monoxide indirectly increases the global warming potential of these gases. Carbon monoxide in the atmosphere can also lead to the formation of the Ground level Ozone.
