as reported by the National Aeronautic and Space Association, “has reached a strong consensus that global temperatures are rising rapidly as a direct result of billions of tons of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gas emissions from human-made sources.” NASA also indicates that climate-warming trends over the past century are extremely likely due to human activities (http://climate.nasa.gov/scientific-consensus/).
