2025年1月26日 · For a full description of Earth’s gaseous envelope, within which climate change and global warming occur, see atmosphere. Global warming, the phenomenon of rising average air temperatures near Earth’s surface over the past 100 to 200 years.

2024年3月18日 · “Climate change” encompasses global warming, but refers to the broader range of changes that are happening to our planet. These include rising sea levels; shrinking mountain glaciers; accelerating ice melt in Greenland, Antarctica and the Arctic; and shifts in flower/plant blooming times.

2024年10月21日 · Climate change is a long-term change in the average weather patterns that have come to define Earth’s local, regional and global climates. These changes have a broad range of observed effects that are synonymous with the term.

2024年10月23日 · “Climate change” encompasses global warming, but refers to the broader range of changes that are happening to our planet, including rising sea levels; shrinking mountain glaciers; accelerating ice melt in Greenland, Antarctica and the Arctic; and shifts in flower/plant blooming times.

There is unequivocal evidence that Earth is warming at an unprecedented rate. Human activity is the principal cause. Why Is Climate Change Happening? Human activities are driving the global warming trend observed since the mid-20th century. What Are the Effects of Climate Change?

Climate change is a long-term change in the average weather patterns that have come to define Earth’s local, regional and global climates. These changes have a broad range of observed effects that are synonymous with the term.

2022年3月1日 · As greenhouse gas emissions blanket the Earth, they trap the sun’s heat. This leads to global warming and climate change. The world is now warming faster than at any point in recorded...

2024年10月14日 · Climate change encompasses not only rising average temperatures but also natural disasters, shifting wildlife habitats, rising seas, and a range of other impacts. All of these changes are...

2024年1月18日 · Earth’s temperature has risen by an average of 0.11° Fahrenheit (0.06° Celsius) per decade since 1850, or about 2° F in total. The rate of warming since 1982 is more than three times as fast: 0.36° F (0.20° C) per decade. 2023 was the warmest year since global records began in 1850 by a wide margin.

2019年1月22日 · Climate change has accelerated the rate of ice loss across the continent. The "greenhouse effect" is the warming that happens when certain gases in Earth's atmosphere trap heat. These...
