🌍The consensus in science is that human activities, such as burning fossil fuels, have significantly contributed to the rise in global temperatures.
🌡️The average temperature on Earth has risen faster in the past century than at any other time in the past 10,000 years.
🌊Melting ice caps and rising sea levels are causing coastal regions to be flooded, putting cities and populations at risk.
🔥Extreme weather events, such as heatwaves and droughts, are becoming more frequent and intense due to global warming.
💨The burning of fossil fuels releases greenhouse gases, such as carbon dioxide, which trap heat in the atmosphere and contribute to global warming.
