Also called climate change. The slow increase of the Earth's surface temperature. It has resulted from both natural causes such as warming during an interglacial period and from the increased release of human-made greenhouse gases into the air through the burning of fossil fuels. Extreme or abrupt changes in climate may also occur, rather than just gradual warming.

| global warming |
An increase in the Earth's temperature caused by human activities, such as burning coal, oil and natural gas. This releases carbon dioxide, methane, and other greenhouse gases into the atmosphere. Greenhouse gases form a blanket around the Earth, trapping heat and raising temperatures on the ground. This is steadily changing our climate. See Also Greenhouse Gas,
