Called greenhouse gases, their levels are higher now than at any time in the last 800,000 years.cite]]> 2020-01-30 19:14:37 UTC https://padlet.com/dulinbraydenb/txjdjz8iajse/wish/438400862 burrellcolea https://padlet.com/dulinbraydenb/txjdjz8iajse/wish/438401261 In 1895, the Swedish chemist Svante Arrhenius discovered that humans could enhance the greenhouse effect by making carbon dioxide, a greenhouse gas. He kicked off 100 years of climate research that has given us a sophisticated understanding of global warming. cite]]> 2020-01-30 19:15:05 UTC https://padlet.com/dulinbraydenb/txjdjz8iajse/wish/438401261 dulinbraydenb https://padlet.com/dulinbraydenb/txjdjz8iajse/wish/438401337 Not only was 2016 the warmest year on record, but eight of the 12 months that make up the year — from January through September, with the exception of June — were the warmest on record for those respective months. https://climate.nasa.gov/evidence/]]> 2020-01-30 19:15:10 UTC https://padlet.com/dulinbraydenb/txjdjz8iajse/wish/438401337 dulinbraydenb https://padlet.com/dulinbraydenb/txjdjz8iajse/wish/438402358 The oceans have absorbed much of this increased heat, with the top 700 meters (about 2,300 feet) of ocean showing warming of more than 0.4 degrees Fahrenheit since 1969. https://climate.nasa.gov/evidence/]]> 2020-01-30 19:16:22 UTC https://padlet.com/dulinbraydenb/txjdjz8iajse/wish/438402358 dulinbraydenb https://padlet.com/dulinbraydenb/txjdjz8iajse/wish/438404355 Global sea level rose about 8 inches in the last century.

It's affecting animals, making them adapt to warmer climates. This could break down the food chain if one animal is gone from global warming and then other animals will either die off or populate too much.]]> 2020-02-04 19:11:47 UTC https://padlet.com/dulinbraydenb/txjdjz8iajse/wish/440520420 dulinbraydenb https://padlet.com/dulinbraydenb/txjdjz8iajse/wish/440525106 https://www.nationalgeographic.com/environment/global-warming/global-warming-overview/     https://www.nationalgeographic.com/environment/global-warming/global-warming-overview/]]> 2020-02-04 19:17:17 UTC https://padlet.com/dulinbraydenb/txjdjz8iajse/wish/440525106 dulinbraydenb https://padlet.com/dulinbraydenb/txjdjz8iajse/wish/441153237 2020-02-05 19:04:31 UTC https://padlet.com/dulinbraydenb/txjdjz8iajse/wish/441153237
