In times past, the earth was always warmest when the CO2 in the atmosphere was at its highest level. Researchers have determined that from boring into the ice at Antarctica sites and measured the levels trapped in the ice.
The burning of fossil fuels by mankind is rapidly escalating the levels of CO2 to a dangerous percentage.
Storms may become more frequent and severe. Rain will fall less in some areas and cause flooding in others....

in the simplest terms global warming is when the sun's uv rays penetrate the earth's protective cover aka the ozone layer and it heats the artic and melts the ice and the ice turns to water and eventually the earth will be covered in water because of global warming.

Global warming is a myth dreamed up by environmentalists. 'Extreme' fluctuations in temperatures attributed to this fairytale are naturally occurring phenomena that have done so for eons.
Think I'm wrong? Then explain the two ice ages (that we know of) that have occurred before humankind was ever a factor.

rising of the average temperature of the earth due to a layer of gases collectively called the green house gases as they produce the green house like effects.
what will happen, more data is needed to answer this question, perhaps it might be too late to rectify the ill effects carbon emissions have caused by the time more data is available...
