Global warming ď ľ

Global warming is the rise in the average temperature of the Earth's climate. The increase of temperature happens around the atmosphere and in the oceans.

ď ľ

The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), reported in 2014 that scientists were more than 95% certain that global warming is mostly being caused by the increasing concentrations of greenhouse gases (GHG) and other human (anthropogenic) activities.

Sea levels are rising, and countries have to adopt measures to protect the population and uphold the local and national economy.

ď ľ

To deal with the CO2 concentration, that is contributing to global warming, we must change our habits to reduce the consumption of fossil fuel energy.
