Global warming is long-term rise in the average temperature of the Earth’s climate system. The term commonly refers to the mainly human-caused increase in global surface temperatures and its projected continuation. Climate change includes both global warming and its effects, such as changes in precipitation and impacts that differ by region. There were prehistoric periods of global warming, but observed changes since the mid-20th century have been much greater than those seen in previous records covering decades to thousands of years.
