Global warming is heating up our planet at a rapidly increasing rate. Since the 19th century Earths average temperature has gone up 0.8 degrees Celsius this may not seem like much but even this increase can be bad for animals and even our health. It causes polluted air from the increase in combustion, in turn causing pollution induced asthma. This rapid increase in temperature is also causing more extreme natural events such as hurricanes, droughts and floods which all lead to more combustion to rebuild the damage they cause. Which in-turn is the thing we are trying to stop. The increase in temperature is also warming our oceans. The increase in ocean temperature is killing our coral reefs and leaving lots of under water inhabitants with no where to go. Global warming is also destroying our ice caps and glaciers. The increase in temperature means that they are melting and in-turn rapidly increasing water levels. This means that a lot of ocean islands will soon be inhabitable. Also it causes a lot of countries to maybe soon be a completely different shape due to the oceans flooding over low land coastal areas.
