What is global warming? | myclimate

That level of optimism isn’t, however, a global phenomenon. Large numbers of people in the EU and US believe there is nothing that can be done. Northern Europeans, in particular, share this concern; approximately 40% of people in France and Poland think we have gone beyond the tipping point, compared to just over one-quarter in Italy and Spain.

With so many moving parts, forecasting a hurricane is hard. Large-scale changes in the climate, such as El Niño and La Niña conditions in the tropical Pacific Ocean.

April 22 is Earth Day, an annual event that highlights environmental concerns and encourages civic action. This year’s Earth Day comes amid widespread global concern about climate change.

Here are five facts about how people globally see climate change, drawn from a 2018 Pew Research Center survey on how people evaluate eight potential threats, as well as other polls conducted by the Center. (For more on how people in the United States see climate change, see our companion post, “How Americans see climate change in 5 charts.”)

In conclusion, many people think that climate change is a big problem. A worldwide survey shows that countries like China are especially worried. Right now, more than half of the people are concerned. Some are starting to help by joining protests, voting, and doing other things. Maybe soon, more people will work together to fix this issue.

In conclusion, global warming has increased a lot in recent years. For example, in the last 100 years, the Earth's temperature has gone up by 1.2°C. This has caused many natural disasters like El Niño, La Niña, electric storms, and even earthquakes. These problems happen because society is making more things that pollute the planet.

This adds enormous amounts of greenhouse gases to those naturally occurring in the atmosphere, increasing the greenhouse effect and global warming.
