DID contribute to trend shown did NOT contribute to trend shown
agricultural practices, like cattle farming
decomposition of organic waste, like in landfills
burning fossil fuels
introduction of windmills
preservation of the water cycle

The concentrations of these gases are not related to the temperature changes.
The concentrations of these gases have probably decreased.
The concentrations of these gases have probably increased.
The concentrations of these gases have probably stayed the same.

Decreased greenhouse gases cause increased global temperatures.
Research shows that Arctic polar ice is melting faster than it did in previous generations.
Increased greenhouse gases cause increased global temperatures.
As polar ice melts, it causes ocean currents to get slower.
As polar ice melts, it causes ocean currents to be more efficient.
Research shows that Arctic polar ice is growing thicker and covering more area.

Large segments of crust called plates have moved to new positions over periods of millions of years.
As water floods new areas, sections of crust are transferred by water to new locations.
Resource deposits have been moved by researchers and then found later by other scientists.
Organisms have migrated to new areas, which caused continental drift to occur.
