WHAT IS CLIMATE CHANGE?
Climate change is any
significant long-term change in
the expected patterns of
average weather of a region
(or the whole Earth) over
a significant period of time.
WHAT IS GLOBAL WARMING?
Global Warming is
a gradual increase in the overall
temperature of the earth's
atmosphere generally attributed
to the greenhouse effect caused
by increased levels of carbon
dioxide, chlorofluorocarbons,
and other pollutants.

DID YOU KNOW?
Our planet is now experiencing:
 rising minimum temperatures
 rising sea levels
 higher ocean temperatures
 an increase in heavy
precipitation (heavy rain and
hail)
 shrinking glaciers
 thawing permafrost, etc.
Look at this polar bear. It is not only
starving. It’s also mourning for its broken
paradise. Sad, isn’t it?

Predictions of Future
Global Climate
Temperature Will Rise: Climate models predict that
Earth’s global average temperate will rise in the
future. For the next two decades warming of about
0.2° Celsius is projected. If we continue to emit as
many, or more, greenhouse gases, this will cause
more warming during the 21st Century than we saw
in the 20th Century. During the 21st Century,
various computer models predict that Earth’s
average temperature will rise between 1.8° and 4.0°
Celsius (3.2° and 7.2° F). The amount of predicted
warming differs depending on the model emissions
scenario (how much greenhouse gas emissions it
assumes for the future). The amount of predicted
warming also differs between different climate
models. Climate change is predicted to impact
regions differently. For example, temperature
increases are expected to be greater on land than
over oceans and greater at high latitudes than in the
tropics and mid-latitudes.
