The American Geophysical Union (AGU) adopted a statement on Climate Change and Greenhouse Gases in 1998. [13] A new statement, adopted by the society in 2003, revised in 2007, and revised and expanded in 2013, [14] affirms that rising levels of greenhouse gases have caused and will continue to cause the global surface temperature to be warmer:
The court further ruled that "policy judgments have nothing to do with whether greenhouse gas emissions contribute to climate change and do not amount to a reasoned justification for declining to form a scientific judgment." In EPA's view, this required the agency to make a positive or negative endangerment finding under Section 202(a) of the CAA.
At atmospheric pressure, the body tissues are therefore normally saturated with nitrogen at 0.758 bar (569 mmHg). At increased ambient pressures due to depth or habitat pressurisation, a diver's lungs are filled with breathing gas at the increased pressure, and the partial pressures of the constituent gases will be increased proportionately.
