• it is the catch-all term for the shift in worldwide

weather phenomena associated with an


increase in global average temperatures.

• it explicitly includes not only Earth's increasing


global average temperature, but also the climate
effects caused by this increase.
• it is a phenomenon of climate change
characterized by a general increase in average
temperatures of the Earth, which modifies the
weather balances and ecosystems for a long
time.

• it is directly linked to the increase of


greenhouse gases in our atmosphere, worsening
the greenhouse effect.
• The average temperature of the planet has
increased by 0.8º Celsius (1.44° Fahrenheit)
compared to the end of the 19th century.

• Scientists expect an increase of between 1.5°


and 5.3°C (2.7° to 9.54°F) in average temperature
by 2100.

• Human activities are very likely the main cause


of global warming since the mid-twentieth
century.
• is a natural process that warms the Earth’s surface.
When the Sun’s energy reaches the Earth’s
atmosphere, some of it is reflected back to space and
the rest is absorbed and re-radiated by greenhouse
gases.

• Greenhouse gases include water vapour, carbon


dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide, ozone and some
artificial chemicals such as chlorofluorocarbons
(CFCs).

•More Greenhouse Gases = A Warmer Earth


The fight against climate change is a real opportunity to transition
to a low carbon society, creating jobs, innovation and social justice
locally and internationally.
