Answer:

The terms climate change and global warming are often used interchangeably, but climate change refers to both the rise in global temperatures because of human activities andthe many impacts this rise has on the planet—such as more intense and frequent droughts and storms, melting glaciers and ice sheets, rising sea levels, warming seas (which can cause coral reef bleaching and disrupt the marine food chain), and ocean acidification (see question 7). Climate change can also refer to natural fluctuations in the Earth’s average temperature between cold periods (ice ages) and warm periods.

The climate change we are currently experiencing is almost certainly manmade in origin (see question 2). Scientists have concluded that, over the last 50 years, the Earth’s surface should have been cooling slightly based on natural factors, like solar intensity and volcano activity; instead, the increased burning of fossil fuels has led to global warming—and at a significantly faster rate than at any time over the last 800,000 years.

People around the world are already feeling the impact of climate change on the environment. A hotter atmosphere means extreme weather is more likely and potentially more devastating: droughts, flooding, and more severe storms have all become more common. Changing weather patterns can ruin crops and cause serious water shortages. Rising sea levels are threatening low-lying islands and coastal cities. Tropical and insect-borne diseases are spreading as their hosts colonize new habitats that were previously too cold for them to survive.

Climate change represents a significant threat to the health and well-being of human societies, especially in vulnerable areas of the developing world where people are ill-equipped to deal with the side effects of a warmer climate.
