Brodstar: Greenhouse gases are a huge problem in this world.... people don't seem to understand the importance of it all. I think the world needs to improve if we want to live the way we want to - with limitations. animals are dying and suffering. And our world is being destroyed right now - as you are reading this. save the world!!!

I think the problem with green house gas emissions is the impact on the average temperature around the world...which is rising as a result of gas emssions.

With rising temperatures the ice shelves in Antartica are melting at an increasing rate which of course causes problems for the local wild life there (Polar bears etc) and also causes the oceans water levels to rise, and ocean currents to change. Both these things will have lasting affects on the worlds weather patterns.

Probably the best summary of the effect of all this stuff is the excellent movie An Inconvenient Truth. If you havn't seen it already it is a must see.
