How does carbon dioxide added cause flooding?
Carbon dioxide itself does not directly cause flooding; however, increased levels of CO2 in the atmosphere contribute to climate change, which can lead to more extreme weather patterns, including heavy rainfall and storms. These intensified weather events can overwhelm drainage systems and lead to flash flooding. Additionally, rising temperatures can result in the melting of glaciers and ice caps, contributing to higher sea levels and coastal flooding. Thus, while CO2 is not a direct cause of flooding, its role in climate change exacerbates conditions that can lead to flooding events.
