Global warming means that the entire globe is warming up.
Every geographical location is being affected in obvious and non-obvious ways. The polar ice caps are melting. Plants that used to be prevalent in Mexico are moving to Canada. The Gulf Stream is weakening, and making England COLDER.

Not necessarily. Global warming effects systems, and the impact on any local environment depends on a lot of interrelated factors. Global warming may produce colder weather in some areas. The biggest impact will be when global scale ocean currents are disrupted and the distribution of heat changes patterns.

There is no such thing as "global warming" according to many prominent scientists who study this. The warming that scientists have noticed recently is simply a normal cycle of the Earth. That said, the warming cycle will affect places like Alaska first.

Global warming does not exist.The environmentalist connected it to green house gases of which CO2 was one of the most problem. They say that CO2 has increased 30% it has not. Mother nature has recycled our air for millions of years with green plants through a process called photosynthesis. The plants need CO2 just as much as u need oxygen. If u still don't understand go measure the CO2.

Well, they say the pollar ice caps are melting so maybe. But I think they blame all weather changes on "Global Warming".
