This phenomenon, observed over the past one or two centuries, has disturbed the climatic pattern of the earth

According to a UN report, the average temperature of the Earth's surface is now about 1.2 degrees warmer than it was in the late 1800s - before the industrial revolution

Global warming has led to a change in climatic conditions, like extreme weather. There are droughts at some places and floods at some

Climate scientists have showed that humans are responsible for virtually all global heating over the last 200 years

The burning of fossil fuels, cutting down of trees and CFCs (Chloroflourocarbons) cause the temperature of the earth to increase

As greenhouse gas emissions blanket the Earth, they trap the sun's heat. This leads to global warming and climate change

High temperature changes the weather patterns, causing the dry areas to get drier and wet areas to get wetter

Scientists have noted that the world is now warming faster than at any point in recorded history
