A comprehensive student centered site all about Global Warming and its effect on our environment and our future

The Joint Program on the Science and Policy of Global Change is MIT's response to these research, analysis, and public education challenges.

A growing body of evidence indicates that humans now have a significant impact on climate.

This information comes from the Marian Koshland Science Museum of the National Academy of Sciences. This research is based upon the most recent available data in 2010. Facts from earlier years are cited based upon availability and relevance, not to slant results by singling out specific years that are different from others. Likewise, data associated with the effects of gun control laws in various geographical areas represent random, demographically diverse places in which such data is available.
