MORE OPINIONS: *Ahem* Hello, I'm the polar bear and if you ask me..I don't know what the heck is happening but my habitat is changing, my home is experiencing the warmest air temperatures in four centuries, the rapid loss of sea ice is making my life miserable because I hunt, eat, breed and even den there, now I have to walk and walk and walk some more trying to find an adecuate place for my normal activities and when I finally arrive to a comfortable land... BUM... I'm tired as a polar bear who walked the entire Artic ! wait... I am a polar bear who walked the entire Artic !!!!!! O.o Anyway, we, bears, do communicate too and rumors say that human activities caused this disaster because they like to play with weird things such as coal and stuff I can't even pronounce, increasing levels of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere and causing global warming... but we are optimistic, deep down, we know that those smarty pants walking on two legs (you people) will find a way to stop the mess and we'll wait... even the 30 years needed to reverse the exhausting warming trend :-s Sincerely, Mr. Fancy Words Bear ! ps: somebody send me a bottle of sunblock please ! My nose is killing me !!! (do you see the 'relantionship' now?)

global warming is the cause of climate change; excess of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere is one of the biggest causes of global warming. The foreseen climate change will be different from place to place, but one common fact will be (and already is) atmospheric phenomena with bigger energy content, i.e. capable of bigger devastations (havocs).

Global warming refers to surface temperature increases, while climate change includes global warming and everything else that increasing greenhouse gas amounts will affect.

Global warming refers to the increasing temperature and is a part of climate change as was mentioned. Other aspects of climate change include changes in precipitation and sea level. Some scientists say the more extreme weather events we've been having are also the results of climate change. In the last couple years, the U.S. has suffered the hottest weather on record and some of the worst hurricanes and tornadoes.
