Causes
Global warming occurs when carbon dioxide (CO2) and other air pollutants and greenhouse gases collect in the atmosphere and absorb sunlight and solar radiation that have bounced off the earth’s surface. Normally, this radiation would escape into space—but these pollutants, which can last for years to centuries in the atmosphere, trap the heat and cause the planet to get hotter. That's what's known as the greenhouse effect.


Effect s on environment

Melting glaciers, early snowmelt, and severe droughts will cause more dramatic water shortages and increase the risk of wildfires

Rising sea levels will lead to coastal flooding on the Eastern Seaboard,
Forests, farms, and cities will face troublesome new pests, heat waves, heavy downpours, and increased flooding. All those factors will damage or destroy agriculture and fisheries.
Disruption of habitats such as coral reefs and Alpine meadows could drive many plant and animal species to extinction.

One of the biggest issues facing us right now is global warming. Its effects on animals and on agriculture are indeed frightening, and the effects on the human population are even scarier. The facts about global warming are often debated in politics and the media, but, unfortunately, even if we disagree about the causes, global warming effects are real, global, and measurable. The causes are mainly from us, the human race, and the effects on us will be severe.
       
1. Global Warming Cause: Carbon dioxide emissions from fossil fuel burning power plants
2. Global Warming Cause: Carbon dioxide emissions from burning gasoline for transportation
3. Global Warming Cause: Methane emissions from animals, agriculture such as rice paddies, and from Arctic seabeds
4. Global Warming Cause: Deforestation, especially tropical forests for wood, pulp, and farmland
5. Global Warming Cause: Increase in usage of chemical fertilizers on croplands
  6. Global Warming Effect: Rise in sea levels worldwide
7. Global Warming Effect: More killer storms
8. Global Warming Effect: Massive crop failures
9. Global Warming Effect: Widespread extinction of species
10. Global Warming Effect: Disappearance of coral reefs....... i hope it will help u bro...) 
                                    if it is befinificial for u then mark me as a brainlist....))
