    Global warming is caused by the buildup of greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide from burning fossil fuels. It leads to rising sea levels, increased temperatures, and damage to habitats and species. Evidence of global warming includes photographs showing the retreat of the Portage Glacier in Alaska between 1914 and 2004, and lower water levels in the Colorado River between 2002 and 2003. Simple things individuals can do to address global warming include turning off lights and electronics when not in use, dressing for warmer or cooler weather, and recycling.

    Carbon Dioxide (CO2)

    Fossil fuels (coal, oil, natural gas)

    Whats the difference between global warming and climate change?

    Difference
    GLOBAL WARMING is the increase of the Earths average surface temperature due to a build-up of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. CLIMATE CHANGE is a broader term that refers to long-term changes in climate, including average temperature and precipitation.

    Effects of Global Warming


    Rising Sea Level Increased Temperature

    Habitat Damage and Species Affected

    Changes in Water Supply

    Whats the proof that global warming is taking place?

    Portage Glacier
    Alaska
