What is Climate Change

What Causes Climate Change
Climate Change is Caused by the release of Carbon Dioxide and Methane. These gasses are called Greenhouse Gasses. A Greenhouse Gas is a gas that goes into the atmosphere and traps heat that comes from the sun. This causes the temperature to steadily rise around the world.
What Problems Are Causes By Climate Change
Climate Change will have many effects on our lives. The way we live, the way we travel, the foods we eat all of this can change if we don't address this monumental problem. If this problem isn't addressed water levels will rise, animal and plant species will go extinct, and much more could happen.
As you can see the sea levels can rise anywhere from .2 meters to 2 meters by 2100
