Very effective video, and sobering commentary.

And if you’re wondering about the link between CO2 and global warming, here’s what the data from NASA shows:

The carbon dioxide level in the atmosphere was about 285 parts per million in 1880, when the GISS global temperature record begins.
By 1960, the average concentration had risen to about 315 parts per million.
Today it exceeds 390 parts per million and continues to rise at an accelerating pace.

While scientists don’t expect temperatures to rise consistently year after year, they do expect those figures to continue climbing over decades with extreme temperatures predicted in the next two to three years due to increased solar activity and the effects of El Nino on the tropical Pacific region.
