Detailed explanation-3: -We already see effects scientists predicted, such as the loss of sea ice, melting glaciers and ice sheets, sea level rise, and more intense heat waves. Scientists predict global temperature increases from human-made greenhouse gases will continue. Severe weather damage will also increase and intensify.
Detailed explanation-4: -A warming atmosphere affects more than just air temperatures: while heat waves and droughts are becoming more common and intense, rainstorms are also becoming more powerful, sometimes provoking dangerous floods.
Detailed explanation-5: -Ocean water gets heated and expands. Low coastal areas will get flooded. Regional patterns or precipitation (rain and snow) will be affected. Glaciers and polar ice sheets will melt faster.
