3. Global surface temp -erature increased 0.74 ± 0.18 °C (1.33 ± 0.32) °F during the last century.iel_triward09@yahoo.com iamsuperielherrera@yahoo.com
7. These greenhouse gases reabsorb heat reflected from the Earth's surface, thus trapping the heat in our atmosphere. This natural process is essential for life on Earth because it plays an important role in regulating the Earth's temperature. iel_triward09@yahoo.com iamsuperielherrera@yahoo.com

9. The greenhouse effect is a natural warming process. Carbon dioxide (CO2) and certain other gases are always present in the atmosphere. These gases create a warming effect that has some similarity to the warming inside a greenhouse, hence the name âgreenhouse effect.ââiel_triward09@yahoo.com iamsuperielherrera@yahoo.com

11. Increasing the amount of greenhouse gases intensifies the greenhouse effect. Higher concentrations of CO2 and other greenhouse gases trap more infrared energy in the atmosphere than occurs naturally. The additional heat further warms the atmosphere and Earthâs surface.iel_triward09@yahoo.com iamsuperielherrera@yahoo.com
14. The primary cause of global warming is Carbon Dioxide emissions. CO2 is being pumped into our atmosphere at an insane pace; 8 billion tons of CO2 entered the air last year. Of course some of this is due to natural activity such as volcanic eruptions and people breathing.iel_triward09@yahoo.com iamsuperielherrera@yahoo.com

17. The first several of these links is an over abundance of solar radiation absorbing gases and other particles floating about in our atmosphere.
18. The next grouping of events concerns what happens when the small percentage of increased heat on our planetâs surface and in our air begins to effect long standing conditions.iel_triward09@yahoo.com iamsuperielherrera@yahoo.com

20. The rise in temperature around the Earth over the last fifty years is only around on-degree on average. If we are just raising the temperature a little bit why does it matter? Global warming is melting the North and South poles; it is creating floods in some areas and deserts in others. iel_triward09@yahoo.com iamsuperielherrera@yahoo.com

22. Global warming is also believed to be responsible for recent changes in our weather. There are more hurricanes in the northern hemisphere every year than ever before. And these hurricanes are more powerful than the ones from 50 years ago. Rising oceans, increased rainfall, loss of fresh water and dozens of other problems are on the rise and the cause is global warming.iel_triward09@yahoo.com iamsuperielherrera@yahoo.com
