What is Global Warming?


Global warming is the slow increase in the
average temperature of the earth’s
atmosphere because an increased amount of the
energy (heat) striking the earth from the sun is
being trapped in the atmosphere and not radiated
out into space.

The earth’s atmosphere has always acted like a


greenhouse to capture the sun’s heat, ensuring that
the earth has enjoyed temperatures that permitted
the emergence of life forms as we know them,
including humans.

Without our atmospheric greenhouse the earth


would be very cold. Global warming, however, is
the equivalent of a greenhouse with high
efficiency reflective glass installed the wrong way
around.

As humans started burning


fossil fuels and etc.
Manmade gases like co2 and
other naturally-made gases
have started to accumulate
into the atmosphere which
causes greenhouse effect that
results to global warming
and climate change.
