How will global warming effect polar ice caps?

Global warming is causing polar ice caps to melt at an accelerated rate, leading to rising sea levels and loss of habitat for polar animals such as polar bears and penguins. The melting ice caps also contribute to further warming as the reflective surface is replaced by dark ocean water that absorbs more heat from the sun.


What is the gradual increase in the temperature of Earth's atmosphere?

Global warming is the name given to the recent (over 200 years) gradual increase in the temperature of Earth's atmosphere.


Why is global warming not cool?

Global warming is detrimental because it leads to rising temperatures, which can result in severe weather patterns, such as droughts, floods, and hurricanes. These events can disrupt ecosystems, damage infrastructure, and threaten human health. Additionally, global warming is linked to the melting of polar ice caps and the rise of sea levels, which can have long-term impacts on coastal communities and biodiversity.


Does global warming affect arctic animals?

Global warming has had some impact on the animals of the Arctic and Antarctic (there are actually no animals at either Pole). Being an ice shelf, rather than a land mass, the North Pole is more prone to melting, decreasing in size over at least the last five decades. Currently, global warming affects animals because the melting of freshwater ice affects the marine creatures. These creatures also cannot withstand the warmer sea temperatures. Habitat loss is a major issue. In the Antarctic, there has been a 33% decrease in some penguin populations due to habitat loss.


When should global warming be capitalized in a sentence?

Global warming should be capitalized when it is used as part of a proper noun, such as in the title of a specific event or organization (e.g., Global Warming Summit). Otherwise, it should be written in lowercase as a general term.
