 " The
Present" explains more recent climate trends. It gives examples
of how our society’s production and use of energy – manufacturing
things, moving vehicles, producing fertilizers, growing food – is
changing the air around us. There is information to help you
explore the connection between burning fossil fuels (coal, oil
and natural gas) and climate change. This section gives you the
scientific evidence for climate change and the current impacts
both globally and here in Ontario. Eg. The relationship between
rising global temperatures, more violent weather and increased
concentration of atmospheric greenhouse gases (GHG)
