Some well-known climate scientists have confirmed that global warming is caused by man-made, they called on governments to act immediately to prevent further rise in the Earth's temperature.
The United Nations Environmental Assessment Panel is made up of 2,500 scientists from more than 130 countries, and the group expects more and more earthquakes, heat waves and rainfall will rise over the next 1,000 years and sea levels will rise.
Scientists have said that over the past 50 years, human combustion of oil and other activities and the increase in the temperature between the causal relationship between more than 90%.
The 2001 assessment concluded that the correlation between the two was 66%.
There are many signals to prove this, like Australia's unprecedented drought and the highest temperature in Europe this winter.
"On February 2, 2007, people 's questions should be solved and the rise in the Earth' s temperature is caused by human activities," said Achim Steiner, head of the UN Environment Program.
"In the face of this emergency, the compromise has been of no avail," said French President Jacques Chirac. "It is time for a revolution, and we are really on the eve of a historic change."
The Kyoto Protocol was originally a major solution to reducing global greenhouse gas emissions, but its role was compromised by the refusal of the United States. The United States is the world's leading emitter of greenhouse gases.
Arctic melted
The 21-page report of the United Nations states that glaciers in the Arctic sea may melt in 2100, and that greenhouse gases will make tropical cyclones stronger.
It is reported that the 21st century, the global temperature may rise 1.8 to 4 degrees Celsius.
In the 20th century, global temperatures rose by 0.7 degrees Celsius, and the decade since 1994 was the hottest 10 years since the Earth since 1850.
Countries that have signed the Kyoto Protocol hope that the United States and other greenhouse gas emissions can sign the agreement.
Pacific island country president of Kiribati has warned that sea level is rising.
The United Nations report predicts that sea levels will rise by 18 to 59 centimeters in the 21st century, and scientists say that if the Antarctic and Greenland icebergs continue to melt, the global sea-level rise will not stop.
Sea level elevation will threaten the security of some islands, coastal countries and cities, such as Bangladesh, Shanghai to Buenos Aires, coastal cities
For the above reasons I chose to make this project - people's activities into the screen area Iceberg will melt the purpose is to let people know that humans are the main factors leading to these results.
