What is Global Warming?
Global warming is the long-term increase in Earth's average
surface temperature due to human activities, such as burning
fossil fuels and deforestation, which release greenhouse
gases into the atmosphere. These gases trap heat,
intensifying the natural greenhouse effect and causing rising
temperatures, melting ice caps, sea-level rise, extreme
weather events, and ecosystem disruptions. It poses
significant threats to human health, agriculture, economies,
and the environment. Mitigation efforts focus on reducing
greenhouse gas emissions, while adaptation strategies
address the impacts already occurring.
