Global warming is caused by greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide trapping heat from the sun in the atmosphere, causing the Earth's temperature to rise. Some effects of global warming include more frequent heat waves, stronger storms, and sea level rise from melting ice caps. To address global warming, we can choose renewable electricity sources, plant trees, unplug devices when not in use, eliminate burning coal, and make other lifestyle changes to reduce our carbon footprint.
