Glossarbegriffe: Globale Erwärmung

Description: Die globale Erwärmung ist eine Erwärmung der Atmosphäre eines Planeten durch Treibhausgase wie Wassermoleküle, Kohlenstoffdioxid oder Methan. Sie wird durch einen verstärkten Treibhauseffekt verursacht, bei dem die Atmosphäre weniger Infrarot-Strahlung (Wärmestrahlung) in den Weltraum entweichen lässt. Dadurch erhöht sich die globale Durchschnittstemperatur eines Planeten. Es gibt natürliche Treibhausgase sowie (auf der Erde) durch industrielle Aktivitäten von Menschen freigesetzte Treibhausgase. Die globale Erwärmung der Erde wird erhebliche und sehr langfristige Auswirkungen auf den Planeten haben: Dazu gehören kurz- und mittelfristige Veränderungen von lokalen Wettermustern, die Zerstörung von Lebensräumen und der Anstieg des Meeresspiegels.
