The earth is getting warmer because the atmosphere is being polluted with gases such as carbon dioxide. This “global warming” has resulted in the Earth’s average temperature rising over the last 150 years. While Earth has naturally gone through cycles of hotter and colder temperatures historically, Earth is currently heating up at a much faster rate.
Do you think that global warming is really happening? Is it Hot Enough for You? explains the many reasons why scientists believe that Earth is really getting warmer. Some things that are contributing to the problem are unbelievable and you would not even think that they are bad for the planet.
