Question

article on global warming and other environmental issues 150- 200 words​

Answer 1

Answer:The consequences of global warming remain an issue of great debate and uncertainty, and some researchers predict dramatic and serious problems for future generations. Warmer oceans could result in stronger and more frequent hurricanes. As temperatures climb, some regions could experience frequent heat waves and devastating droughts and wildfires. During the 1990s and first decade of the twenty-first century, many areas in the United States endured record-breaking heat and drought. In 2012, severe drought plagued the Wheat Belt of the United States, located in the North American Great Plains. In the beginning of 2013, Australia experienced a heat wave that caused hundreds of wildfires throughout the country. Climate change has also been linked to the severe drought that occurred in California between 2011 and early 2017. In 2018 California has further endured massive wildfires that have led to the displacement of thousands of residents, widespread destruction of property, and the deaths of at least eight people. Scientists have attributed the fires, which included the largest wildfire in California history to date, to the presence of extremely dry vegetation, brought on by rising temperatures, that created conditions that allowed the fires to spread rapidly and burn intensely. California governor Jerry Brown lamented that such fires have become increasingly common in the southwestern United States and warned that fires would likely become more intense as climate change continues.
