The change in temperature of between 1.5 and 4\u00c2\u00b0C (2.7 to 7\u00c2\u00b0F), forecasted for the next hundred years, has no equal in the recent history of the planet. Several natural phenomena do contribute to climate change and most of the past changes in climate can be explained by a combination of them. However, none of these natural phenomena, individually or collectively, explain today\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s rapid climate changes. In the short (in terms of geologic time) period that people have inhabited Earth, we have brought about massive changes in the environment, which have had a significant impact on Earth\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s climate. Dr. Richard Snow and Dr. Mary Snow examine the evidence and effects of climate change as well as the well-orchestrated attempt to create controversy and disseminate misinformation regarding global warming.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Science Cafe, Orlando is hosting a meeting next week.
