In the mid-twentieth century the earth’s average temperature is increasing due to the fact that global warming is taking place. Global surface temperature has increased about a degree in the past century. The progressive gradual rise of the earth’s surface temperature thought to be caused by the greenhouse effect is responsible for changes in global climate patterns. An increase in the earth’s atmospheric and oceanic temperatures is widely predicted to occur due to an increase in the greenhouse
