    This text discusses global warming, climate change, and the greenhouse effect. It explains that global warming is caused by the burning of fossil fuels, which increases greenhouse gases in the atmosphere and traps heat. This warming trend causes climate change, or changes in weather patterns and seasons around the world. Climate change further impacts the planet through rising sea levels from melting ice sheets and glaciers as well as more extreme weather.

    Global warming is the long-term warming of the planet’s overall temperature. Though this warming trend
    has been going on for a long time, its pace has significantly increased in the last hundred years due to the
    burning of fossil fuels. As the human population has increased, so has the volume of fossil fuels burned.
    Fossil fuels include coal, oil, and natural gas, and burning them causes what is known as the “greenhouse
    effect” in Earth’s atmosphere. 

    The greenhouse effect is when the Sun’s rays penetrate the atmosphere, but when that heat is reflected off
    the surface cannot escape back into space. Gases produced by the burning of fossil fuels prevent the heat
    from leaving the atmosphere. These greenhouse gasses are carbon dioxide, chlorofluorocarbons, water
    vapor, methane, and nitrous oxide. The excess heat in the atmosphere has caused the average global
    temperature to rise overtime, otherwise known as global warming.

    Global warming has presented another issue called climate change. Sometimes these phrases are used
    interchangeably, however, they are different. Climate change refers to changes in weather patterns and
    growing seasons around the world. It also refers to sea level rise caused by the expansion of warmer seas
    and melting ice sheets and glaciers. Global warming causes climate change, which poses a serious threat
    to life on earth in the forms of widespread flooding and extreme weather. Scientists continue to study
    global warming and its impact on Earth.
