Background+on+Global+Warming

The planets climate has been changing at what scientist call an alarming rate. The planets weather has been changing due to higher average temperatures which scientists say are the result of global warming. Global warming is the results of to many green house gases in the atmosphere that are causing a large hole to form in the ozone layer. The giant hole is allowing more harmful rays into the atmosphere. Scientists theories are that humans are causing this problem, while others say global warming is naturally occurring. The theories that say humans are the cause are said to be most accurate due to the increased harmful chemicals humans are allowing to escape in the atmosphere. With these gases destroying the ozone layer and allowing large sums of harmful rays and excess heat from the sun into the atmosphere is causing the polar ice caps to melt, which causes the sea levels to rise putting more pressure on the tectonic plates. The extra pressure may cause the plates to shift causing large earthquakes, tsunamis, fault lines, and volcanic eruptions. Since the average temperature began to increase the amount of natural disasters have increased and the amount of destruction has greatly increased.
