Global warming is the increase in the average temperature of the Earth's near-surface air and oceans in recent decades and its projected continuation.
Global average air temperature near the Earth's surface rose 0.74 ± 0.18 °C (1.3 ± 0.32 °F) during the past century.The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) concludes,"most of the observed increase in globally averaged temperatures since the mid-20th century is very likely due to the observed increase in anthropogenic greenhouse gas concentrations," which leads to warming of the surface and lower atmosphere by increasing the greenhouse effect.Natural phenomena such as solar variation combined with volcanoes have probably had a small warming effect from pre-industrial times to 1950,but a cooling effect since 1950.The basic conclusions have been endorsed by at least 30 scientific societies and academies of science,including all of the national academies of science of the major industrialized countries.The American Association of Petroleum Geologists is the only scientific society that rejects these conclusions,and a few individual scientists also disagree with parts of them.
Climate models referenced by the IPCC project that global surface temperatures are likely to increase by 1.1 to 6.4 °C (2.0 to 11.5 °F) between 1990 and 2100.The range of values reflects the use of differing scenarios of future greenhouse gas emissions and results of models with differences in climate sensitivity.Although most studies focus on the period up to 2100,warming and sea level rise are expected to continue for more than a millennium even if greenhouse gas levels are stabilized.This reflects the large heat capacity of the oceans.

Carbon dioxide and other air pollution that is collecting in the atmosphere like a thickening blanket, trapping the sun's heat and causing the planet to warm up. Coal-burning power plants are the largest source of carbon dioxide pollution -- they produce 2.5 billion tons every year. Automobiles, the second largest source, create nearly 1.5 billion tons of CO2 annually.
Here's the good news: technologies exist today to make cars that run cleaner and burn less gas, modernize power plants and generate electricity from nonpolluting sources, and cut our electricity use through energy efficiency. The challenge is to be sure these solutions are put to use.
