CO2 causes global warming?
Has a causal relationship been established between CO2 presence and global temperature?

Please tell me in your own words; I’m not interested in links, I can use google too. Thank you!

He examines the impact that climate change will have on health, agriculture, water resources, coastal regions, forests, and wildlife. He also looks at the efforts being made to counteract the effects of global warming and the ways in which we can adapt.
