warming. It is still questionable of whether this a theory or fact. Global

warming is an increasing of the average temperature on the Earth. Global warming was first detected in the 1980's. Some scientists believe that the cause is the greenhouse effect, the process of trapping heat within the Earth's atmosphere because of the presence of large amounts of gases. These gases, primarily carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide, and water vapor are responsible for maintaining global temperature suitable for life. Growth in industry, agriculture, and transportation since the Industrial Revolution, however, has produced gases that have increased the Earth's thermal blanket. As the gases increase, more heat is trapped within the Earth's atmosphere, and the worldwide temperature goes up. Since 1896 it

has been known that these gases help stop the sun's infrared radiation from

it is presently. The measurably increasing levels of carbon dioxide in the

evaluated global temperatures, which could lead to coastal flooding and

major climatic changes and have serious implications for agricultural
