Yes it is. It's a by-product of burning fossil fuels, which release greenhouse gases, including Carbon Dioxide. It is also a side effect of deforestation and intensive livestock farming, which releases methane. In effect, our presence has resulted in a change in balance between the removal of greenhouse gases from the atmospehere and the production of greenhouse gases.
Any increase in atmospheric carbon dioxide contributes to global climate change.
Greenhouse gases, such as carbon dioxide and methane, trap heat in the Earth's atmosphere, leading to an increase in global temperatures, a phenomenon known as global warming. This warming contributes to broader changes in climate patterns, referred to as global climate change, which can result in extreme weather events, rising sea levels, and shifts in ecosystems. Essentially, while global warming is a key aspect of global climate change, the latter encompasses a wider range of environmental impacts resulting from increased greenhouse gas emissions.
Not quite, though they are very closely connected. Global warming is the warming of the earth. This is causing climate change, which is the many different changes in climate that are beginning to happen.
Greenhouse gases A+
They haven't. Scientists agree that global climate change is caused by human burning of fossil fuels and deforestation.
The answer you are looking for is climate change.However, the question is incorrect. Global warming is not the same as climate change. Global warming is the warming of the earth. Climate change is the result of this warming.
Any increase in atmospheric carbon dioxide contributes to global climate change.
Global warming is an effect of climate change. Climate change refers to long-term changes in temperature, precipitation, and other atmospheric conditions. Global warming specifically refers to the increase in Earth's average surface temperature due to human activities like burning fossil fuels.
There are probably three "big" questions that preteens might ask about global climate change.How will I be affected by global climate change?What are the consequences of global climate change?What can be done to fight global climate change?If these questions seem a bit "advanced" for preteens here's a suggestion: do not sell them short. They know what time it is. They know what's going on.
Brazil itself is the main cause of global warming and climate change as they are continuously chopping down the rainforests!

Global warming
It can change the climate
Global issues are: Climate Change Deforestation Recycle, Reuse, Reduce
Climate change is a global phenomenon affecting the Earth's climate system. It can be observed in various regions around the world through changes in temperature, precipitation patterns, sea levels, and more. The impact of climate change is felt on a local, regional, and global scale.

"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).
