from 13 to 17.
The earth has warmed by about 1 degree Fahrenheit over the past 100
years. Scientists are not exactly sure about the reason for this change in
temperature. But many of the world’s best climate scientists think that things
people are doing are making the world warmer. Global warming refers to an
average increase in the earth’s temperature. This temperature change in turn
causes changes in climate. A warmer earth may lead to changes in rainfall
patterns, a rise in sea level, and a wide range of impacts on plants, wildlife, and
humans.
When climate scientists talk about global warming, they are mainly talking
about what is caused by humans. Figuring out how we impact the environment
makes it possible for us to change our behaviors. Scientists think that the things
we do that send gases into the air are making our planet warmer. During the
Industrial Revolution, we began altering our climate through agriculture and
industry. Both agriculture and industry release huge amounts of gases into the
air. These gases then help trap the sun’s radiation in the earth’s atmosphere.
Because of this, the earth is warming up. The warmer the earth gets, the more
water vapor is released into the air. Water vapor is a gas that traps heat, which
makes the global warming process even worse.
The Industrial Revolution was the time when people started using machines
to make life easier. Industry releases gases by burning fuels. The Industrial
Revolution made it easier for humans to spread to all corners of the earth.
People started cutting down forests, which recycle gases that trap heat in the
atmosphere. This makes it even harder to get rid of the gases we create.
Global warming is a big problem that must be solved soon. If everybody
joins together, there is no doubt that we can stop the process.

A. The things people are doing B. The earth, which is a big place
