ABOUT THE SONG: Observational Evidence
\n1. Rising global temperatures (surface and ocean heat content)
\n2. Melting glaciers and ice sheets (Greenland, Antarctica, Arctic sea ice)
\n3. Rising sea levels
\n4. Atmospheric CO\u2082 increase with fossil fuel isotopic signature
\n5. Measured radiative forcing matches predictions from CO\u2082 and other GHGs<\/p>\n
Summary
\n* Fossil fuel combustion increases CO\u2082 \u2192 higher radiative forcing \u2192 warming.
\n* The isotopic composition confirms the carbon source is anthropogenic.
\n* Feedback loops accelerate the warming beyond the direct effect of CO\u2082 alone.<\/p>\n
