Answer to Question 1

Warmer temperatures overall; melting glaciers, ice caps, and sea ice; increased drought in some
locations, increased precipitation in other locations; difficulty growing food in some agricultural areas;
and spread of tropical diseases into areas that have traditionally been too cold for them.



Answer to Question 2

Carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases are natural components of the atmosphere. These gases
allow sunlight to pass through the atmosphere but trap some of the heat that radiates outward from
Earth's surface. This is the greenhouse effect. If the mount of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere
increases, they can trap more heat, and the atmosphere warms.
