Global warming is caused by the build up of gases in the atmosphere such as carbon dioxide and methane, which form a sort of blanket over the Earth, trapping in heat that would normally escape the atmosphere. The leading greenhouse gas is carbon dioxide, a pollutant emitted from the burning of fossil fuels, such as coal, oil, and natural has. While it is true that there has always been some natural climate variability, the changes that are currently underway are unlike anything that has been seen before. Record levels of carbon dioxide are having a far reaching change over our weather, sea levels, and climate.
A mission looking to curb global warming is geared up to take flight. The
mission consists of a series of experiments conducted on an airplane.
The study results will help scientists understand the behavior of
carbon dioxide, one of the highest-impact greenhouse gases in the
atmosphere, as well as other greenhouse gases.
