What is the most significant environmental change that is taking place today?
Global warming
How is global warming not taking place?
Global Warming is taking place right now.
Why did terminology change from global warming to climate change?
Global warming is happening and this warming is causing climate change. We still talk about global warming, but by using the term climate change we can deal with the practical effects of the warming.Basically our world's weather patterns are very complex, so when the climate warms in one place it may actually change weather patterns and create a slight cooling somewhere else. In addition, there may be some places where the temperature changes very little but the pattern of weather - amount of rain or snow for example - does change. So while the overall effect of what is happening is that the average temperature of the globe is warming, some individual places may actually cool, and others will just experience changes in weather. Thus "climate change" sums things up better than "global warming".
What percent of the global population increase is taking place in low income nations?
98%
How are local councils stopping climate change?
No local council is stopping climate change. Many local councils are making efforts to reduce their contribution to global warming by reducing their carbon footprint. Sydney City Council, in Australia has a system of trigeneration in place with a vision of powering the buildings with low carbon energy systems to provide power, heating and cooling.

Global Warming is taking place right now.
Is greenhouse effect harming us?
It is melting the icecaps (which can be proven by looking at the polar ice caps) which effects the weather. Yes greenhouse, global climate change is taking place and is harming the human race.
What pieces of evidence indicate that the changes are taking place?
I suggest you narrow your question. Are you talking about global climate changes, or changes in ammonia when it's chilled?
What is global conflicts?

When did global warming change into climate change?
When people tried to understand what was happening we started talking about climate change (as well as global warming).Global warming is the cause. Climate change is the result. They are really two different things.Burning of fossil fuels (coal, oil and natural gas) and deforestation (cutting down trees which previously removed carbon dioxide (CO2) from the atmosphere) put extra greenhouse gases into the atmosphere.These gases trap more of the sun's heat (greenhouse effect), causing global warming.The warming of the earth, the atmosphere and the oceans has one huge effect. It is changing the climate.
What kind of change is taking place if white mold growing on a strawberry?
A chemical change is taking place.
Is there someone that can save the world from Global Warming?
No. To save the world from global warming then all countries have to act. Regular climate conferences are already taking place but have not been successful in uniting every country to act. Governments have to act, and all individuals have to act.
What global sporting event is taking place in London this year?
The olympics
What state is the global carbon project taking place?
it is in the best state
