Short answer, in 2021, the famous carbon dioxide.
Nitrous oxide has a Global Warming Potential (GWP) of 310 relative to carbon-dioxide, meaning that for the same amount, it can contribute to global warming 310 times more than carbon dioxide.
However, the concentration of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere is much greater than the other greenhouse gases, making carbon dioxide the greatest contributor to global warming in 2021.
