Human activities such as electricity production and transportation add significant amounts of carbon pollution to the atmosphere. This carbon pollution, along with other greenhouse gases, is the primary cause of most of the global temperature rise observed over the past fifty years. Global warming has already led to rising sea levels, melting glaciers and shifting rainfall patterns. Unchecked, carbon pollution can lead to long-lasting changes in our climate that threaten human health, society and ecosystems.
