The question as text
5. Global warming is a term used to describe the increase in mean global temperatures. There have been numerous computer simulations developed to predict the effects of global warming. One simulation is NASA’s Virtual Earth System Laboratory (VESL), which allows users to see how climate change affects glacier size, global sea level and changes to the coastline. The VESL runs simulations in real time and is an abstraction of reality.
