Global warming is caused by greenhouse gases trapping heat in the atmosphere and increasing temperatures. It is affecting many parts of the world by causing sea level rise which floods low-lying islands, harming plants, animals, and people. Individual actions like using appliances less and conserving energy at home can help reduce global warming.

2. Global warming is when the earth heats up (the temperature rises). It happens when greenhouse gases (carbon dioxide, water vapor, nitrous oxide, and methane) trap heat and light from the sun in the earth’s atmosphere, which increases the temperature.
