In some places, like Costa Rica, clouds are forming higher, which is drying out some of the rainforests. Another unfortunate finding is that some trees are giving out more carbon dioxide than they take in. Rainforests used to store carbon. If they stop that will have serious repercussions for the earth.

Other studies are finding that the increase in carbon dioxide in the atmosphere is causing different kinds of plants to grow in the forests.

Rises in temperature will cause rainforests to change into drier forests in some areas, and other forests into tropical forests. If sea levels rise sufficiently, then large tracts of rainforest and mangrove forests will be affected.

What is climate change global warming causing?

"Climate Change" and "Global Warming" are not the same, though related. Global Warming causes Climate Change. With Global Warming we understand the warming of the earth's global temperature. That warming has in turn an effect on the earth's global climate and on more localized climates (like the climate of England or Western US).

What effect is the greenhouse effect having on your planet?

The normal greenhouse effect keeps the planet, and us, warm.the enhanced greenhouse effect, which we are having now, is causing global warming and climate change.This is happening because of our burning of fossil fuels(coal, oil and natural gas) and deforestation (cutting down trees which previously removed carbon dioxide (CO2) from the atmosphere).
