Abstract Global warming is a direct result of human activities on this planet. Our species have inhabited this planet for thousands of years but only since the 1900’s have scientists been able to measure the changes that we have induced on earth. It is estimated that temperatures have risen globally by about 0.9 degrees Fahrenheit‚ which may seem minor‚ but have caused physical changes on the planet (and potentially dangerous ones in the future). The “greenhouse effect” is a term many politicians
