Global Warming Terms Explained

The meaning of global warming can often be lost when someone does not fully understand what the terms of global warming means. The four main terms are global warming, climate change, carbon offset and carbon neutral. Global warming is where the average temperature of the entire planet, or globe, rises. This rise causes major changes in the planet’s climate affecting every form of life on it.
