I. WHAT IS GLOBAL WARMING? Global warming is the gradual increase of the Earth’s average measured temperature overtime. This measured average temperature is derived from both the near-surface air as well as ocean waters. Scientists began measuring this temperature beginning in the mid-20th century and have continued to monitor fluctuations and deviations in measurements ever since. The average global temperature increased approximately 1.33°F over the past 100 years ending in 2005. This led the

and sadly‚ they have become more serious throughout the years. Apparently‚ other than natural disaster it is evident that the major cause of pollution is the irresponsible act of human being.
