textSchool Globe Model for Infrastructural Global Warming by Zbigniew Charnas
What about if the global warming is now not only in the atmosphere and on the surface, but 1.5 *C or more is the geophysical warming inside the Earth. This is the theoretical conception with some practical cases in our reality.

by Jerry Rubin, Posted By Lynda Carson
