Global warming

     Albert Gore was speaking in the video in general and in detail about the global warming of our planet Earth, and spoke mainly about the causes of global warming and its effects. We also saw the causes of carbon dioxide and human waste and waste from factories. Also Albert Gore said that the change of weather from cold to hot over the centuries is caused by global warming of the Earth.

There are accidents cause global warming and climate variables which in recent years, including floods, droughts, severe heat waves; oceans are warming and ice caps are melting. So the message is that we should not underestimate human-produced global warming because it is a serious human and environment issue and raises the heat trapped in the planet.
