Introduction In 1856, scientist Eunice Foote conducted a groundbreaking experiment that set in motion a chain of events that would shape the world as we know it today. Foote's experiment, which compared the warming effects of regular air and carbon dioxide, laid the foundation for our understanding of the greenhouse effect. Over a century later, the world celebrated the centennial of the American oil industry, a milestone marked with a sobering speech by physicist Edward Teller. He warned that burning fossil fuels and emitting extra carbon dioxide could trigger a catastrophic greenhouse effect, potentially submerging cities like New York.
