Introduction to Global Warming

Global warming refers to the long-term increase in Earth's average surface temperature. This phenomenon is primarily driven by human activities, such as the burning of fossil fuels and deforestation, leading to the release of greenhouse gases.

Causes of Global

Warming

Burning of Fossil

FuelsThis includes the use of coal, oil, and natural gas for electricity and heat, as well as transportation.

Deforestation

The clearing of forests for agriculture, industry, and other human activities contributes to carbon dioxide levels.

Industrial

ActivitiesFrom energy production to

manufacturing, industries emit vast amounts of greenhouse gases.
