Here Are the American Experts - 208
Here is NASA’s Climate Websites:
“It’s
not your imagination: Certain extreme events, like heat waves, are happening
more often and becoming more intense. But what role are humans playing in
Earth’s extreme weather and climate event makeover? Scientists are finding
clear human fingerprints.”
“Earth-orbiting satellites and other technological advances have
enabled scientists to see the big picture, collecting many different types of
information about our planet and its climate on a global scale. This body of
data, collected over many years, reveals the signals of a changing climate.
“From
more frequent and longer heat waves to more intense rainstorms, scientists are increasingly confident human-induced climate change is making
some types of extreme weather and climate events much more likely.”
Off NOAA’s website:
The
heat-trapping nature of carbon dioxide and other gases was demonstrated in the
mid-19th century.2 Their
ability to affect the transfer of infrared energy through the atmosphere is the
scientific basis of many instruments flown by NASA. There is no question that
increased levels of greenhouse gases must cause Earth to warm in response.”
The United States' foremost scientific agencies and organizations have
recognized global warming as a human-caused problem that should be addressed.
The US Global Change Research Program has published a series of scientific
reports documenting the causes and impacts of global climate change. NOAA,
NASA, the National Science Foundation, the National Research Council, and the
Environmental Protection Agency have all published reports and fact sheets
stating that Earth is warming mainly due to the increase in human-produced heat-trapping
gases.
On their
climate home page, the National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and
Medicines says, "Scientists have known for some time, from multiple lines
of evidence, that humans are changing Earth’s climate, primarily through
greenhouse gas emissions," and that "Climate change is increasingly
affecting people’s lives."
