Reuse This Work. Current climate change is primarily caused by human emissions of greenhouse gases. This warming can drive large changes in sea level, sea ice and glacier balances, rainfall patterns, and extreme temperatures. This has potentially devastating impacts on human health, farming systems, the stability of societies, and other species.

READ MOREClimate change describes a change in the typical weather for a region — such as high and low temperatures and amount of rainfall — over a long period of time. Scientists have observed that, overall, Earth is warming. In fact, many of the warmest years on record have happened in the past 20 years. This rise in global temperature is

Therefore, comparing a full period with trends over more recent intervals can demonstrate the intensification of the forced change over the natural variability. Here, through the three trend lines, 1951-2020, 1971-2020, and 1991-2020, one can
