The report determined with near certainty that these heat-trapping gasses are the main contributors to global warming. To quote from the document, "Most of the observed increase in globally averaged temperatures since the mid-20th century is very likely due to the observed increase in anthropogenic (human caused) greenhouse gas concentrations." |
