A new, peer-reviewed study from the University of Waterloo (Canada) states that chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) are the main cause of global warming since the 1970s and not carbon dioxide (CO2). As many of you well know, the use of CFCs is also a known cause of ozone depletion over the pole. In-depth statistical data going back to 1850 shows that CFCs

Alaska glaciers have been found to be one of the top contributors to global sea level rise. New, in-depth research on glacier mass losses and their contribution to the rising sea level between 2003 and 2009 shows that the world's mountain glaciers have contributed just as much melt water to rising sea level as the the Greenland and Antarctic ice

A new in-depth analysis of peer-reviewed summaries on the topic of global warming/climate change that were published in the past 21 years shows an overwhelming consensus among scientists that recent warming is mostly caused by human actions. The research team, which was led by John Cook of the University of Queensland, found that 97% of those summaries endorsed the consensus.
