Science

• The earth is warming faster than at any time in
  the past 10,000 years.
• 11 of the 12 warmest years ever recorded are
  between 1995 and 2006.
• Since 1850, a period in which todays richest
  countries have industrialised rapidly, levels of
  greenhouse gas carbon dioxide in our atmosphere
  have risen 28 methane levels are 112 higher.
• It is more than 90 probable that human
  activities are causing global warming. Lack of
  100 certainty is not a reason to act.
