'''Global warming''' is the increase of temperature since 1880. This increase in temperture is mainly caused by the increases in [[carbon dioxide]] and other [[greenhouse gas]]es. During the last century near surface tempertures rose about 0.8 K. The possibility of adverse consequences (especially: sea level rise, retreating of glaciers and water scarity) has become a major concern for environmentalists and some scientists.

According to geologists, the Earth has experience numerous [[ice age]]s during which the temperature dropped so far that [[glacier]]s could cover [[North America]] and [[Europe]].
