Of the land in California, 99.84 percent is experiencing drought.

014 was the world’s hottest year on record, surpassing the previous record set in 2010, tied with 2005.

Approximately 600,000 deaths occurred worldwide as a result of climate change in 1990's.

You can help by using less energy and water. For example, turn off lights and TVs when you leave a room.

Another way to help is by learning about Earth and its climate. The more you know, the more you'll be able to help.

"Climate change" refers to any long-term change in Earth's climate. This includes warming, cooling and changes besides temperature.

"Global warming" refers to the long-term increase in Earth's average temperature.

This is another example (one of course exaggerated) of what can happen if climate change spreads.

Confronting climate change requires swearing off something that has been extraordinary to humankind: cheap energy from fossil fuels.

The EPA says 6,600 premature deaths a year, 150,000 asthma attacks in children, 3,300 heart attacks, and 490,000 missed school and work days

Now global warming isn't just effecting wild life it's also effecting humans, the higher temps are now causing smog.

Greenhouse gases act like a blanket around Earth, trapping energy in the atmosphere and causing it to warm.

Over the past century, human activities have released large amounts of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases into the atmosphere.

How can we make a difference? One way we can make a difference is by reducing your use of cars, rather walk or bike places near by.

Earth's average temperature has risen by 1.5°F over the past century, and is projected to rise another 0.5 to 8.6°F over the next 100 years.

Though it’s tough to pin any particular disaster on climate change, in the case of Fort McMurray the link is clear.

this is an example of what could happen to the wild life in Antartica if global warming continues to spread.

climate change refers to the rise in average surface temperatures on Earth.

this an example of the greenhouse effect...

Climate change can happen both naturally and artificially.
