Global Warming

Introduction

The rise in earth’s surface temperature as a consequence of greenhouse effect is called Global Warming.

Global Warming is important because: 

1. it helps determine future climate expectations.

2. through the use of latitude, one can determine the likelihood of snow and hail reaching the surface.

3. you can also be able to identify the thermal energy from the sun that is accessible to a region.  

Global Warming is the scientific study of climates, which is defined as the mean weather conditions over a period of time.
