"Global temperatures are rising at a rapid, unprecedented rate." I know. "The "hockey stick" graph proves that the earth has experienced a steady, very gradual temperature decrease for 1000 years, then recently began a sudden increase." I know. "Human produced carbon dioxide has increased over the last 100 years, adding to the Greenhouse effect, thus causing most of the earth's warming of the last 100 years." Not only that; 100% for the last 50 or 60 years. "CO2 is the most common greenhouse gas." It's the most important, That's cuz it is a forcing gas, and not a feedback ( or condensable) gas like water. "Computer models verify that CO2 increases will cause significant global warming." I know. "The United Nations' Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) has proven that man–made CO2 causes global warming." Yup "CO2 is a pollutant" I know. Massachusetts v. Environmental Protection Agency " Global warming will cause more storms and other weather extremes." I know "Receding glaciers and the calving of ice shelves are proof of man-made global warming. "The earth’s poles are warming and the polar ice caps are breaking up and melting." I know. Sea Ice Hits Record Lows at Both Poles \| Greenland ice mass loss continued in 2016 \| NOAA Climate.gov Ice-mass loss of Antarctica visualized Here's a free fun fact: all the water from melting land ice id making sea levels rise.
