Climate Change in Ontario
Over the last 50 to 100 years, increased industrialization and human activities have begun to affect the balance of the Earth’s natural climate. Increasing the amount of greenhouse gases causes the Earth’s atmosphere to heat up. When this global warming affects our weather patterns and climate conditions, it is referred to as climate change.
