One of the most immediate and obvious effects of global warming is the increase in temperatures around the world. The average global temperature has increased by about 1.4 degrees Fahrenheit (0.8 degrees Celsius) over the past 100 years, according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA).
Though global warming (i.e. a rise in earthâs surface temperatures) will have an impact on human societies, this will be much less disruptive and destructive than the other changes mentioned above. The only solution to climate change is to slow the flow, to stop altogether, and re-absorb greenhouse gas emissions.
