Global Warming

Global warming has become perhaps the most complicated issue facing world leaders. Warnings from the scientific community are becoming louder, as an increasing body of science points to rising dangers from the ongoing buildup of human-related greenhouse gases — produced mainly by the burning of fossil fuels and forests. But is it really the humans fault??

Our planet has been through multiple ice ages followed by times of increased heat. Could this mean that Global Warming is just part of our environment's temperature cycle? While we struggle to figure it all out, the face of the Earth as we know it—coasts, forests, farms, and snowcapped mountains—hangs in the balance.
The massive amount of pollution produced by humans is a huge factor in the depletion of the Ozone layer.
Because of the rising temperatures, ice burgs and glaciers are melting causing the sea level to rise.
