Facts Bite Arctic ice is rapidly disappearing, and the region may have

its first completely ice-free summer by 2040 or earlier. The biggest business sectors that are contributing to

global warming are the following: Industry, Transportation, Residential, Commercial, Agriculture.

Methane is the second biggest cause of greenhouse warming

Ice/snow cover cools the earth by reflecting sunlight Without water vapor’s effect on the atmosphere, the earth

would be at below. The year 2005 was the warmest on record, and the years

1998 and 2007 are tied for the second warmest. The eight warmest years on record have all occurred since 1998.

The effects of global warming could

destroy the habitats of and threaten

extinction for over one million species

of plants and animals
