Global warming refers to the rising average temperature of Earth’s atmosphere and oceans‚ which started to increase in the late 19th century and is projected to keep going up. Since the early 20th century‚ Earth’s average surface temperature has increased by about 0.8 °C (1.4 °F)‚ with about two thirds of the increase occurring since 1980.[2] Warming of the climate system is unequivocal‚ and scientists are more than 90% certain that most of it is caused by increasing concentrations of greenhouse
