    The Earth's climate has warmed about 1.0 C over the last 100 years.

    Explanation:

    Over the past 100 years, severe global warming has caused a rise in global temperature ranging from 0.7 degrees Celsius to 1.4 degrees Celsius and with a rough average of about 1 degrees Celsius. The increase of up to 1.4 degrees Celsius is mainly contributed by the last quarter beginning from 1980's.

    Global temperature is reflected by the amount of radiation received from the sun and radiated back to the space. The amount of radiations sent back is directly dependent upon the presence of green house gases increases the carbon content.

    With each degree of rise in global surface and ocean temperatures, there is a huge risk of ice caps and glaciers melting, increase in sea level and inundation of coastal cities, droughts, water scarcity, forest fires, and many more environmental and social issues which are highly detrimental to human life.

    Anthropological contribution to global warming by pollution is due to activities like burning of fossil fuels, deforestation, unsustainable agriculture and animal farming etc.
