|Description ={{en|1=The diagram shows widespread evidence of warming temperatures having affected many physical and biological systems across the world. From the source, written by Cynthia Rosenzweig (2008): "Researchers from NASA GISS and from 10 other institutions across the world analyzed data from published papers on 829 physical systems and some 28,800 plant and animal systems, stretching back to 1970. [...] In physical systems, 95 percent of observed changes are consistent with warming trends. These include wastage of glaciers on all continents; melting permafrost; earlier spring river runoff; and warming of water bodies. The study also found that 90 percent of documented changes among living creatures are consistent with warming. [...] It is unlikely that any force other than human-influenced global warming could be driving these changes; factors such as deforestation or natural climate variations could not explain it. The work builds upon the consensus of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, which in 2007 declared human-made climate warming "likely" to have discernible effects on biological and physical systemHadCRUT3 and CRUTEM3),] written by Phil Jones and Mike Salmon, last updated 2011-01-01.
