Global warming is a fact
Article Abstract:
Global warming is caused by industrial emissions that mainly contain carbon dioxide, but NASA researchers attribute global warming to soot, which is produced from diesel, forming sooty snow which in turn absorbs more sunlight and reflects back less sunlight back into space, causing faster melting. AT-PREZ vehicles that are Advanced-Technology Partial Zero Emissions Vehicles produce emissions about 90-percent less than a typical new car.
