The agricultural industry overproduces food, resulting in waste. A large amount of this food ends up in landfills (an anaerobic environment), where it decomposes and produces methane.

Tilling loosens soil, making it more likely to erode away. Tilling also releases carbon stored in soil into the atmosphere. Less soil makes it more difficult to grow food.

When burned, fossil fuels release ancient carbon into the atmosphere. Fossil fuel emissions pollute the atmosphere and are detrimental to the health of people in the vicinity.
Developed countries, like the United States and China, are the biggest producers of greenhouse gases. Marginalized communities often live near locations where greenhouse gases are emitted.

Migration can lead to lack of workforce and lower GDP, potentially causing more migration.

Flooding, salinization, extreme heat/drought, and phenological/range shifts all affect crop growth and lower yields. Agriculture produces methane from cows, carbon dioxide through farm machinery and burning forests, and nitrous oxide from fertilizers. Algal blooms from fertilizer runoff kill organisms in ponds.

Floods, famine, extreme heat, wildfire, and storms can all result in forced migration.
People who have the means to pay for better living conditions will be able to stay where they are.

Drought and extreme heat, combined with decades of wildfire suppression, cause wildfires. This results in large amounts of carbon dioxide emissions, and an increase in drought due to lack of trees and evapotranspiration.

All purple posts directly contribute to global warming. Some of these are positive feedback loops.

Permafrost traps methane. When it melts, that methane is released into the atmosphere.

Salinization harms wildlife and soil. Phenological and range shifts result in further extinction.

Phenological Shifts: Warmer temperatures cause organisms to respond at different times to seasonal changes, possibly resulting in lack of food or failure to reproduce.
Range Shifts: Warmer temperatures change the range of organisms, resulting in the proliferation of warm-weather organisms and the extinction of cold-weather ones. This comes with the spread of tropical diseases and pests.

Higher temperatures increase the likelihood of extreme heat. Higher temperatures also cause higher rates of evaporation, causing drought.
People living in formerly redlined areas are often lower-income, and often do not have high tree canopy percentages, making these people more likely to suffer from extreme heat.
People living along the equator see unlivable temperatures with a comparatively small amount of climate warming.

Warm oceans cause sea ice to melt, which exposes more dark ocean. This means more solar radiation is absorbed as heat, instead of bouncing back into space as light.

Heavy downpours can cause flooding, which damages food stores and infrastructure. Higher storm surges, coupled with rising sea levels, increase the likelihood of salt water flooding, which causes salinization of the environment.

Melting land ice adds more water to the ocean. Additionally, warm water expands, causing additional sea level rise.
Entire island nations are disappearing into the sea.

Warmer air gives ice more time to melt during the year, resulting in high levels of runoff. This runoff goes into rivers and oceans.
Pakistan: Melting glaciers in the Himalayas caused the Indus river to swell, causing a flood.

Warm oceans evaporate more readily, adding moisture to air. Warm, moist air creates optimal conditions for the creation of large cyclones. Large storms bring high wind speeds, high storm surges, and heavy downpours.

Low ocean pH makes it harder for shelled creatures to build their shells, taking energy away from reproduction, and dissolves coral skeletons. High ocean temperatures cause coral bleaching. Phenological and range shifts result in further extinction.

# data[].attributes.body
Oceans absorb carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. Carbon dioxide in the ocean combines with water to form carbonic acid, making the ocean more acidic.

# data[].attributes.body
Low albedo increases the proportion of solar radiation that is absorbed by the earth and released as heat. Greenhouse gases trap this heat, and increased greenhouse gas concentrations in the atmosphere mean more heat is trapped.

Oceans absorb heat from the atmosphere and act as a buffer for climate change
