Global warning is a process that occurs naturally in our atmosphere. It is generally understood that the greenhouse effect refers to warming beyond what would naturally occur. In a greenhouse, sunlight enters through glass walls and ceilings. This light is absorbed by objects in the greenhouse and reflected back as heat energy. The glass of the greenhouse traps the heat energy inside, keeping the greenhouse warmer than the outside air.Global Warming SurveyDo you think that the consequences of the Global Warming affect us, right now?

Global WarmingAs human beings, we are vulnerable to confusing the unprecedented with the improbable. In our everyday experience, if something has never happened before, we are generally safe in assuming it is not going to happen in the future, but the exceptions can kill you and climate change is one of those exceptions.
