→About Global Warming
: '''Global warming''' can be caused by increased [[concentration]]s of [[Greenhouse Gas|greenhouse gases]] such as [[Carbon Dioxide]] and [[Methane]] which are being produced in larger quantities currently due to [[human]] activity.
: The exact effects of '''global warming''' are unknown. However, it is likely to affect different [[climate]]s around the [[Earth]] in different ways. This is known as [[Climate Change|climate change]].
: [[Climate Change|climate Climate change]] caused by '''global warming''' can cause [[Habitat Destruction|habitat destruction]] due to changes in weather patterns in many different [[ecosystem]]s possibly causing drought, flooding, temperature rises or temperature falls depending on the location.
: Some [[scientist]]s are investigating ways to slow or reverse '''global warming''' to prevent [[Climate Change|climate change]]. These methods are known as [[geoengineering]] and they are an attempt to control the [[Mean Average|average]] [[temperature]] of the [[Earth]]'s surface.
