We all have heard of global warming. The Intergovernmental Report on Climate Change has been issuing reports about every four years since 1990. By now we know that global warming happens when we drive our cars, when we turn on our air conditioner, whenever we burn fossil fuels. Earth gets hotter and hotter. That's not the whole story, however.
Looking into the past, one can find many reports over the past several decades, though the news was not generally aired through major news outlets like CBS, NBC, FOX, CNN, and ABC.
National Public Radio (NRP), however, has been sharing the findings of the scientific community, including the IPCC, from the beginning. We found a five-part special program that they aired nearly a decade ago about global warming called "It's All About Carbon." Please find Part I below.
Hi Ava! My name is Rielle and I go to Punahou School in Hawaii. I read the first paragraph of your blog and found that it was interesting, and a bit sad, that global warming is happening when we do things that we do every day. When I think about it, how will we stop global warming if we can't even turn on our air conditioning? Your post was nice because it wasn't too long, but it was informative. Nice job!
