Global warming is already under way. The urgency of taking action becomes clearer with each new scientific study.
Global warming is caused primarily by carbon dioxide and other heat-trapping emissions from our burning of fossil fuels (when we drive cars or generate electricity) and our clearing of forests. These emissions remain in our atmosphere for decades or even centuries.
