Definition of global warming in English English dictionary: A sustained increase in the average temperature of the earth, sufficient to cause climate change; The rise in temperature of the Earth's atmosphere due to the greenhouse effect (the retention of the sun's energy by the atmosphere due to the build-up of CO2 and other gases that are the bi-product of industrial activities) Réchauffement planétaire; The increase in the average temperature of the earth, thought to be caused by the build up of greenhouse gases; Gradual rise in temperature over the whole of the earth's surface, caused by the greenhouse effect; A theory that the earth's atmosphere is gradually increasing in average temperatures, resulting from the accumulation of greenhouse gases primarily from the burning of fossil fuels and removal of forests and vegetation; The progressive gradual rise of the earth's surface temperature thought to be caused by the greenhouse effect and responsible for changes in global climate patterns An increase in the near surface temperature of the Earth Global warming has occurred in the distant past as the result of natural influences, but the term is most often used to refer to the warming predicted to occur as a result of increased emissions of greenhouse gases; The steady, documented rise in the Earth’s average surface temperature over the last century The trend is largely attributable to the increased accumulation of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere Climate change believed to be linked to global warming (e g , more frequent droughts, new hurricane patterns, melting of glaciers) is already occurring in some regions of the globe; The gradual warming of the earth due to the "greenhouse effect"; Worldwide warming of the atmosphere due to increases in the amount of carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide and other gases being released into the atmosphere by the burning of fossil fuels; Warming of the Earth's average global temperature because of an increase in the concentration of greenhouse gases A greater concentration in greenhouse gases in the atmosphere is believed to result in an enhancement of the greenhouse effect; A potential increase in the temperature of the earth's lower atmosphere which some researchers link to the build-up of radiative gases in the atmosphere; The increase in the average temperature of the earth, thought to be caused by the build up of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere; Global warming is the gradual rise in the earth's temperature caused by high levels of carbon dioxide and other gases in the atmosphere. The threat of global warming will eventually force the US to slow down its energy consumption. An increase in the average temperature of the earth's atmosphere, especially a sustained increase sufficient to cause climatic change. a general increase in world temperatures caused by increased amounts of carbon dioxide around the Earth. Potential increase in global average surface temperatures resulting from enhancement of the greenhouse effect by air pollution. In 2001 the U.N. Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change estimated that by 2100 global average surface temperatures would increase by 2.5 to 10.4 °F (1.4 to 5.8 °C), depending on a range of scenarios for greenhouse gas emissions. Many scientists predict that such an increase would cause polar ice caps and mountain glaciers to melt rapidly, significantly raising the levels of coastal waters, and would produce new patterns and extremes of drought and rainfall, seriously disrupting food production in certain regions. Other scientists maintain that such predictions are overstated. The 1992 Earth Summit and the 1997 conference of the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change attempted to address the issue of global warming, but in both cases the cause was hindered by conflicting national economic agendas and disputes between rich and poor nations over the cost and consequences of reducing emissions of greenhouse gases; A term used to describe the increase in average global temperatures due to the greenhouse effect Scientists generally agree that the Earth's surface has warmed by about 1 degree Fahrenheit in the past 140 years; Global warming is the gradual increase in global temperatures caused by the emission of gases that trap the sun's heat in the Earth's atmosphere Gases that contribute to global warming include carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxides, chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs), and halocarbons (the replacements for CFCs) The carbon dioxide emissions are primarily caused by the use of fossil fuels for energy; the process by which the Earth’s atmosphere is warming because of the release of “greenhouse gases,” such as carbon dioxide These gases are released into the air from burning gas, oil, coal, wood, and other resources and trap heat in an action similar to that of the walls of a greenhouse; is the progressive gradual rise of the earth's surface temperature thought to be caused by the greenhouse effect and responsible for changes in global climate patterns; The process of the Earth's atmosphere warming to temperatures above normal due to high levels of gases, such as carbon dioxide, which trap radiation leaving the earth and revent the Earth from cooling See Greenhouse Effect; A rise in the average global temperature There is general agreement in the scientific community that average global temperatures have risen about one degree Fahrenheit during the past century ConocoPhillips supports taking actions now that make good environmental and economic sense in their own right -- such as energy conservation and improved efficiency The company also supports further work to improve our understanding of the impact of human activity on climate; an increase in the average temperature of the earth's atmosphere (especially a sustained increase that causes climatic changes); An increase in the average temperature of the Earth's surface, which occurs following an increase in greenhouse gases; An increase in the near surface temperature of the Earth Global warming has occurred in the distant past as the result of natural influences, but the term is most often used to refer to the warming predicted to occur as a result of increased emissions of greenhouse gases Scientists generally agree that the Earth's surface has warmed by about 1 degree Fahrenheit in the past 140 years The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) recently concluded that increased concentrations of greenhouse gases are causing an increase in the Earth's surface temperature and that increased concentrations of sulfate aerosols have led to relative cooling in some regions, generally over and downwind of heavily industrialized areas Also see Climate Change and Enhanced Greenhouse Effect; is a term used to describe a predicted warming of Earth's climate due to increased concentrations of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), composed of many of the world's leading authorities on the subject, estimates that if atmospheric C02 doubled, global average temperature would eventually increase by 1 5º to 4 5 0 C (about 3 0 -8 0 F) with a "best guess" of 2 5 0 C (4 0 F) The IPCC also estimates that about half of this warming will have occurred by the year 2030; The gradual warming of the Earth's atmosphere through the greenhouse effect; gradual increase of the average global temperature; An increase in the temperature of the Earth's troposphere Global warming is the term most often used to refer to the warming as a result of increased emissions of greenhouse gases; increase in the average temperature of the earth's surface; An increase in the average temperature of the earth's atmosphere, especially a sustained increase sufficient to cause climatic change Most scientists believe that a rise in carbon dioxide levels (caused by automobile, power plant, and other emissions) will lead to further global warming
