    Global warming is caused by the greenhouse effect where gases like carbon dioxide and methane trap heat in the atmosphere. Human activities like burning fossil fuels and deforestation are increasing the concentrations of these gases. This is leading the planet to warm with rising sea levels, more extreme weather, warming oceans, and affected countries like Afghanistan and Bangladesh. Solutions include using renewable energy, reducing consumption and waste, becoming more energy efficient, and advocating for climate action.

    What is global warming?

    Global warming is the current rise in


    temperature of the air and oceans.
    What causes global warming?

    practices
    GREENHOUSE EFECT
    The main driver of climate change is the greenhouse effect. Some gases in the
    Earth's atmosphere trapping the sun's heat and stopping it from leaking back into
    space and causing global warming. Many of these greenhouse gases occur naturally,
    but human activities are increasing the concentrations of some of them in the
    atmosphere, in particular:
    • carbon dioxide (CO2)
    • methane
    • nitrous oxide
    • fluorinated gases
