Global Warming Biol. 1010 2008 Spring QuickTime™ and a TIFF (Uncompressed) decompressor are needed to see this picture. Which is which? Global Warming Just to do with near-surface air temperature The consequences of this only Nothing else Climate Change More diverse set of changes Weather changes Water temperature Biome breakdown Vegetative growth What is climate change? (Sometimes referred to as Global Warming) Climate Change is the process by which human emissions of Greenhouse Gases are believed to be causing changes in the Earth’s climate system. Watch out for the difference! Climate or Global Remember that Climate describes an area's longterm atmospheric conditions. Global climate change describes trends and variation in Earth's climate, involving aspects such as Temperature precipitation, and storm frequency and intensity. People often use the term global warming synonymously in casual conversation, but global warming refers specifically to an increase in Earth's average surface temperature. The Diagram Very good way to understand global warming! QuickTime™ and a TIFF (Uncompressed) decompressor are needed to see this picture.

Kyoto Protocol drafted in 1997 in Kyoto, Japan, the Kyoto Protocol mandates signatory nations, by the period 2008-2012, to reduce emissions of six greenhouse gases to levels below those of 1990 How can you help?
