Answer
Global warming is the rise in Earth’s average temperature due to increased greenhouse gases. This warming causes glaciers and polar ice caps to melt, leading to rising sea levels. It also affects rainfall patterns, causing some areas to receive too much rain and others too little. Heatwaves, droughts, forest fires and faster evaporation from water bodies are also consequences of global warming, all of which lead to climate change.
