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? >
Real & Human-Caused!
The temperature of Earth has rapidly increased since the industrialization of the planet. Before factories, cars, airplanes, and electronics, global warming was not a prevalent issue. Since then, humans have begun to release more greenhouse gases, especially carbon dioxide, into the atmosphere. There is no denying that since humans have had the ability to industrialize, that global warming has gotten sufficiently worse.
I agree! The planet's average surface temperature has risen about 2.0 degrees Fahrenheit since the late 19th century and has been increasing even more because of human activities.
