Study Notes

Sunlight hitting Earth can be reflected, pass through, or be absorbed and heat up the planet.
The Black Body Effect causes objects warmer than their surroundings to radiate energy.
The Greenhouse Effect traps heat in the atmosphere, making it warmer than it would be without it.
Global warming is caused by an increase in greenhouse gases, including CO2, CH4, and N2O.
Climate change is a long-term change in weather patterns due to an increase in energy in the atmosphere.
The IPCC assesses scientific, technical, and socio-economical information relevant to the understanding of human-induced climate change.
Working Group 1 of the IPCC has released six reports since 1988.
The IPCC has concluded that warming is unequivocal and most of it is due to human activities.
Limiting future climate change will require substantial and sustained reductions in emissions.
Atmospheric concentrations of carbon dioxide, methane, and nitrous oxide have increased to levels unprecedented in at least the last 800,000 years.
