Climate change
There is new and stronger evidence that most of the warming observed over the last 50 years is attributable to human activities. 2007 Most of the observed increase in globally averaged temperatures since the mid-20th century is very likely due to the observed increase in anthropogenic greenhouse gas concentrations. ...

What is climate change?
The line shows the 50-year average, the grey region the 95% confidence limit in the annual data. From years 1860 to 2000 are shown variations in observations of globally and annually averaged ... the instrumental record; the line shows the decadal average. From years 2000 to 2100 projections of globally averaged surface temperature are shown for the six illustrative SRES scenarios and IS92a using a ...

EIA - Greenhouse Gases, Climate Change, and Energy
The IPCC’s Fourth Assessment Report (Summary for Policymakers) states, “Most of the observed increase in globally averaged temperatures since the mid-20th century is very likely due to the observed increase in anthropogenic greenhouse gas concentrations.” It goes on to state, “The observed widespread ...

Going Gaga Over Gaia
"The understanding of anthropogenic warming and cooling influences on climate has improved... leading to very high confidence that the globally averaged net effect of human activities since 1750 has been one of warming." However, the IPCC has not yet thrown in the towel, instead offering recommendations to implement change. But climate change is just one aspect ...

International Impacts | Climate Change - Health and Environmental Effects | U.S. EPA
The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) has examined a range of future climate change scenarios and found that the globally averaged surface air temperature is projected by models to warm 2 to 11.5F (1.1-6.4C) by 2100 relative to 1990, and globally averaged sea level is projected by models to rise 7.2 to 23.6 inches (18-59 cm or 0.18- 0.59m) by 2100. The ...

Agency. The model (MRI-CGCM2.3.2) satisfactorily reproduced historical climate change in that the globally averaged surface air temperature has been increased by about 0.7C at present since mid- ... in the precipitation (Fig. 3) and the atmospheric circulation (Fig. 4). Fig. 1 Variations of the globally averaged annual-mean surface air temperature change simulated by the MRI global climate model (MRI- ...

Plant-It 2020: About
Earth's near-surface air and oceans in recent decades and its projected continuation. The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) concludes, "most of the observed increase in globally averaged temperatures since the mid-20th century is very likely due to the observed increase in anthropogenic greenhouse gas concentrations"1 via the greenhouse effect. Anthropogenic effects, processes, ...
