The ISCFC is all about reducing our individual and collective contributions to climate change.
But is climate change really happening? Is it mostly caused by human activity, including our production of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases?
In the United States and elsewhere, there are people who are not convinced by the science. But the great thing about science is that we use evidence to evaluate scientific questions. So what is the evidence related to climate change?
Are you or are you not convinced by the majority of climate scientists who say that climate change is real and largely human caused? Why are you convinced/not convinced? What evidence might change your mind one way or the other?
Is Climate Change Real & Human-Caused? >
Are Humans To Blame?
Humans! Are we a contributor to climate change? If so, how big of a contributor are we? Evidence shows that human activity is a major contributor into climate change. In the past few years, these changes in temperature are at an all time high, but how long has the temperature been rising?
According to multiple sources, climate change has been rapidly changing over the past 150 years! Why is this happening? It’s really quite simple, over the past 150 years there have been many inventions and technological advancement. Many of these inventions run on gasoline, natural gas, or coal. All of these contribute a lot to climate change. Many forms of transportation run on these types of fuel, including: cars, ships, trains, aircrafts, and more!
