International scientific consensus agrees that increasing levels of man-made greenhouse gases are leading to global climate change.

Possible consequences of climate change include rising temperatures, changing sea levels, and impacts on global weather.

These changes could have serious impacts on the world's organisms and on the lives of millions of people, especially those living in areas vulnerable to extreme natural conditions such as flooding and drought.

Even if the scientists might be wrong about the human input to climate change it is beholden upon us for all of life to take the precautionary principle and to do all in our power to help stop global climate change.
