Scenario: Climate Change

Global climate change is the predicted and observed result of increased heat being trapped in the oceans and the lower levels of the atmosphere. Human activity has resulted in a rapid rise in the level of atmospheric carbon dioxide, which is a known 'greenhouse gas'. CO₂ allows visible and near infra-red light to reach the surface of the earth, where it is re-radiated at longer wavelengths. However CO₂ absorbs these longer wavelengths and so traps the energy low in the atmosphere, causing it to warm up. This warming, combined with complex feedback effects, results in changes to atmospheric circulation patterns, leading to altered climatic conditions.
