What is climate change? What are the causes of climate change? What are the effects of climate change

Warming oceans: The oceans have absorbed much of this increased heat, with the top 700 meters (about 2,300 feet) of ocean showing warming of degrees Fahrenheit since 1969.

Shrinking ice sheets, causing most Antarctic ice shelf mass loss

Extreme events The number of record high temperature events in the United States has been increasing, while the number of record low temperature events has been decreasing, since The U.S. has also witnessed increasing numbers of intense rainfall events.
