Global warming
Global warming refers to the long-term increase in Earth's average surface temperature due to human activities, particularly the emission of greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide (CO2) and methane (CH4). These gases trap heat in the atmosphere, leading to a range of environmental impacts. "Empowering Tomorrow: Green Solutions for a Sustainable World" Key Causes: 1. Fossil Fuel Combustion: Burning coal, oil, and natural gas for energy releases significant amounts of CO2. 2. Deforestation: Trees absorb CO2, so cutting them down reduces the planet's capacity to mitigate climate change. 3. Agricultural Practices: Livestock production and certain fertilizers release methane and nitrous oxide, potent greenhouse gases. Consequences: 1. Rising Temperatures: Increased heat affects weather patterns, leading to more extreme weather events. 2. Melting Ice and Rising Sea Levels: Polar ice melt contributes to rising sea levels, threatening coastal communities. 3. Ecosystem
