Global warming is the unusually rapid increase in earth’s average surface and its oceans temperature over the past century primarily due to emission of green-house gases. In the past century, temperature rose 0.6 to 0.9 degrees Celsius (1.1 to 1.6° F) between 1906 and 2005, and the rate of temperature increase has nearly doubled in the last 50 years.
Human activity like burning of fossil fuels, deforestation, industrialisation and increase in pollution are few factors that are responsible for global warming. Climate change, melting of glaciers, rise of sea levels, heat waves, and severe precipitation are few effects of global warming.
