The ongoing global warming and climate change are now exposing humanity to future threats, and their consequences are already impacting many regions of the world and affecting hundreds of millions of human lives as we speak.
According to NASA’s Goddard Institute for Space Studies (GISS), the global temperature on Earth has increased significantly in recent years at roughly a rate of 0.2° Celsius (1.9° Fahrenheit) per decade. Carbon Dioxide (CO2) emissions are one of the most important causes of this increase, principally due to the unwise use of energy sources (both production and consumption) that are necessary to fuel the development of many industries and economies.
