We just have to look out for anything these days, the end of all things is at hand,people fail to humble themselves and seek the face of the Lord so that the land can be heal so we are facing the consequences.

Global warming refers to the long-term rise in the average temperature of the Earth's climate system, primarily due to human activities. It is a significant aspect of climate change, which encompasses both global warming and its broader impacts.
### Causes of Global Warming
1. **Greenhouse Gas Emissions**: The primary cause is the increase in greenhouse gases (GHGs) like carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4), and nitrous oxide (N2O) in the atmosphere. These gases trap heat, preventing it from escaping into space.
- **Burning Fossil Fuels**: Combustion of coal, oil, and natural gas for energy and transportation.
- **Deforestation**: Reducing the number of trees that absorb CO2.
- **Industrial Processes**: Emissions from manufacturing and chemical processes.
- **Agriculture**: Methane emissions from livestock and rice paddies, and nitrous oxide from fertilized soils.
2. **Land Use Changes**: Urbanization and deforestation alter the Earth's surface, affecting its ability to absorb CO2 and reflecting more sunlight back into the atmosphere.
### Effects of Global Warming
1. **Temperature Rise**: Increased global temperatures leading to heatwaves.
2. **Melting Ice and Rising Sea Levels**: Melting glaciers and ice caps contribute to rising sea levels, affecting coastal regions.
3. **Extreme Weather Events**: Increased frequency and intensity of hurricanes, droughts, and floods.
4. **Ocean Acidification**: Increased CO2 levels lead to more acidic oceans, impacting marine life.
5. **Ecosystem Disruption**: Changing climates affect habitats, leading to biodiversity loss.
6. **Impact on Agriculture**: Altered growing seasons and crop yields, affecting food security.
### Mitigation and Adaptation
1. **Reducing Emissions**: Transitioning to renewable energy sources (solar, wind, hydro), enhancing energy efficiency, and promoting sustainable transportation.
2. **Carbon Sequestration**: Planting trees, restoring forests, and using technologies to capture and store CO2.
3. **Policy Measures**: International agreements like the Paris Agreement aim to limit global temperature rise.
4. **Adaptation Strategies**: Building resilient infrastructure, developing drought-resistant crops, and improving water management.
### Conclusion
Addressing global warming requires global cooperation and immediate action. By reducing greenhouse gas emissions and implementing sustainable practices, it is possible to mitigate its effects and adapt to changes that are already underway.

Perfect information

[@mrakronyahoo]

Shh - stop reporting on extreme weather. The people might finally demand climate action and vote out politicians in the pockets of big oil.

[@rocketman3827]

🤣 yup it was definitely big oil that causes the floods lol 🤡
