Try not to breath out. Your breath is chock full of water vapor and a small amount of CO2.
And don't burp or fa*t. Methane is a biggie too.
"The major greenhouse gases are water vapor, which causes about 36-70% of the greenhouse effect on Earth (not including clouds); carbon dioxide, which causes 9-26%; methane, which causes 4-9%, and ozone, which causes 3-7%."
