He added: “But we don’t know that yet…. We need to continue the debate and continue the review and the analysis.” NASA and the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration said earlier this year that the rise in average temperatures can be attributed to “increased carbon dioxide and and other human-made emissions.” Read more at CNBC.
