scientists think that human activity is the main cause behind these
temperature increases, a process known as global warming.
The burning of fossil fuels such as
oil and coal is known to release large amounts of carbon dioxide and
other gases into the atmosphere which then trap heat due to the
greenhouse effect. Many believe this will and possibly already is
having an affect on global weather patterns. As well as possibly having
a huge affect on humans, global warming could put many animal species
under the threat of extinction. Check out the video for more.
