What is migration?
Agriculture and livestock produce large amounts of this greenhouse gas.
What is methane?
Melting glaciers contribute to this global problem
The process of reducing greenhouse gas emissions is called
what is mitigation?
This phenomenon occurs when warmer oceans provide more energy to storms, making them stronger.
What is hurricane intensification
Climate change can cause some species to decrease.
What is extinction?
