Global warming refers to an
average increase in the Earth's temperature, which in turn
causes changes in climate. A warmer Earth may lead to
changes in rainfall patterns, a rise in sea level, and a
wide range of impacts on plants, wildlife, and humans. When
scientists talk about the issue of climate change, their
concern is about global warming caused by human activities. |
