Global warming is one of the most complicated issues facing the world today. It occurs when greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide and methane trap heat in the atmosphere, causing temperatures to rise. This harms many living things. The greenhouse effect normally makes the Earth habitable, but now global warming is causing problems. It is raising sea levels, harming ocean life like algae, and increasing acid rain through pollution from burning fossil fuels. Deforestation also contributes by reducing the number of carbon-absorbing trees. To address global warming, people are carpooling, conserving energy, and supporting laws like the Clean Air Act that regulate industrial pollution and vehicle emissions. If left unaddressed, global warming could threaten human health and the environment
