1- High temperatures will adjust: because high temperatures lead to changing weather patterns, and lead to forest fires that spread quickly as temperatures increase.
2- Stronger storms
Changes in temperature lead to changes in precipitation, resulting in more frequent and more severe storms. These storms cause floods and landslides, destroy homes and communities, and cost billions of dollars.
3- Increased drought
Water is becoming scarcer in more areas, and droughts can trigger devastating sand and dust storms that can move billions of tons of sand across continents. Deserts are expanding, which reduces the area of land suitable for growing food. Many peoples today face the risk of being deprived of sufficient quantities of water in some periods.
4- Warming of the oceans and a rise in their surface level
The oceans absorb most of the heat from global warming. This is causing the ice sheets to melt and their surface level to rise, threatening coastal and island communities. In addition, the oceans absorb carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. And if the amount of carbon dioxide increases, the acidity in the oceans increases, which puts marine life at risk.
5- Extinction of living species
Climate change poses a threat to life on land and in the oceans, and these risks increase with rising temperatures. Examples of climate threats include wildfires, extreme weather events, and the spread of pests and diseases. Some species may be able to change location and survive, while others may not.
6- Nutritional deficiency
Climate change and extreme weather events are among the reasons for the exacerbation of hunger and malnutrition in the world. Fisheries, crops and livestock may be destroyed or their productivity reduced. Heat stress can reduce the amount of water and grasslands for grazing.
7. Increased health risks
Changing weather patterns lead to the spread of diseases such as malaria. Extreme weather events increase illness and death, and affect the performance of health care systems. Other health risks include the exacerbation of hunger and malnutrition in places where it is not possible to grow food or find an adequate amount of food.
8- Poverty and displacement
Climate change is exacerbating poverty. Floods can sweep away urban slums, destroy homes and deprive people of their livelihood. In addition, the high temperature makes it difficult to work outdoors. Climate disasters displace 23 million people annually, putting many at risk of increasing poverty.

The climate has been changing for a very long time, but this period began to change very quickly. The temperature of the planet began to rise in an unprecedented manner due to the high concentration of a group of gases called greenhouse gases, the most important of which are water vapor, carbon dioxide, methane, and certainly nitrous gas. A little while reflecting and Shuwaikh insurance, the earth absorbs them and returns their radiation, so you prefer the heat to be trapped in the planet, and this is a normal and good thing, but its increase is not normal
Reasons for the increase in greenhouse gases: Industry Most industries depend on methods of burning fossil fuels in order to produce energy from coal, oil and natural gas, and this of course produces carbon dioxide, and this is not the risk of industrial waste.
Agriculture and animal husbandry. Forests that absorb carbon dioxide are removed and agriculture is used instead. They use fertilizers from which nitrous dioxide gas is released, and machines are used in the operations of plowing and harvesting the land.
Gases released due to storage, processing and transportation
As for livestock, the emission of methane gas is caused by the intestinal fermentation process during the digestion of food, and methane is emitted in large quantities.
Huge buildings emit carbon dioxide, and every ton of cement emits a ton of carbon dioxide

When the temperature increases, the snow at the poles Hedoppov, the water surface level will increase, in the coastal cities it will sink, and this is not the case, the snow will pour fresh water into the salty oceans, the degree of its salinity will change, and this affects the linear currents that play a very important role in marine life
⚠️ Focus here because this is important ⚠️
The higher the temperature means the higher the rates of evaporation of water vapor, which is a greenhouse gas. The higher the temperature, the higher the water vapor percentage, and it will make a warm gas, so the temperature will increase more.
The higher the water vapor rate will increase the rainfall, the places where there will be torrential rains and the dry areas will increase their dehydration, the cultivation will be and the food will be less. It increases acidity because it is an acidic gas, and this acidity causes many problems for living organisms and will kill coral reefs.
Hurricanes and floods will happen at more and more rates
⚠️Solutions⚠️
In order to solve this problem, we must return carbon dioxide from the atmosphere to the earth again, plant trees and plants, and preserve the existing forests, but it seems that we depend on countries, but it is not enough or the problem will happen, but after a long time, scientists invented machines that absorb gas, but they are not practical now because of their high cost
Another solution is to stop the emission of gas, or to a maximum, so that the rate of carbon dioxide absorption is lower than the rate of its emission.
⚠️How to reduce carbon dioxide emissions ⚠️
We increase the efficiency of the devices so that we consume less energy and get the same result
and recycling
Use of renewable energy
Improving the means of transportation, so that cars are working with electricity, imposing fines on factories and low-efficiency companies, and we use the money to finance projects and research
The individual must use energy-saving lamps
And turn off the lights that you don't need
Relying on walking instead of Arabic
Reduce eating meat
Planting trees or plants
Most of the rivers of Europe are now going through a drought that is considered the most driest in their history, and this is due to the climate change that has affected the rivers and made the water level decrease to the point that the land at the bottom of the river itself remained in it and people could cross the river while they were walking on their feet, for example, the Loire River dried up completely in France, and the river Loire dried up completely in France. The Rhine in Germany, its level was so low that it was noon and the merchant ships were not able to walk in it, and I looked at the movement of trade in the river, and in Italy, the Po River, its level was less than 2 meters full, to the point that it remained almost dry, this is not what happened in other rivers like a river Danube in Hungary whose level is so low that river islands and the Thames River appear in it in Britain, which reached a complete drought in many areas, and this drought forced many countries like Germany to reduce the capacity with which nuclear reactors operate because the severe drought made the air temperature so high Europe is now in a stage of real danger and in the midst of all this and on the other side of the world: torrents and rains have begun to increase the lands of the Arabian Peninsula in a way as old as what happened in any period of history to the extent that there are floods in Jeddah, Dubai, Sana’a and the backs of lakes in the desert of Quarter A My uncle is in the Arabian Peninsula, which is famous for being one of the driest deserts in the world, and areas with paintings have turned green.
