Global temperatures on the Earth’s surface have increased by 1.1 degrees Fahrenheit during the last century‚ faster than any time in the last 1000 years (Rauber 41). Consequently‚ the 1990s was the warmest decade in the last 1000 years (“Global Warming”). As humans emit fossil fuels‚ greenhouse gasses slowly warm the Earth’s atmosphere (“EPA Global”).
