The burning of fossil fuels releases greenhouse gases into the atmosphere, which trap heat and cause the Earth's temperature to rise.

Climate change alters the global atmospheric circulation patterns, which can lead to more extreme and unpredictable monsoons.

Changes in monsoon variability can lead to more frequent and severe droughts and floods, which can have devastating impacts on agriculture, water resources, and ecosystems.

Climate change refers to the long-term alteration of temperature and typical weather patterns in a place. It is distinct from climate variability, which refers to short-term fluctuations in weather patterns.

Oxygen is not a greenhouse gas because it does not absorb and trap heat in the atmosphere like carbon dioxide, methane, and water vapor do.

The urban heat island effect is a phenomenon where the temperature of a city or urban area is significantly higher than the surrounding rural areas. This is due to the presence of buildings, roads, and other infrastructure that absorb and retain heat.

Climate change is generally expected to lead to a deterioration in air quality, not an improvement.

Carbon sequestration is the process by which carbon dioxide is removed from the atmosphere and stored in plants, soils, and other natural reservoirs.

Natural gas is a fossil fuel and therefore not a renewable energy source.

Ocean warming refers to the increase in the temperature of the Earth's oceans due to the absorption of heat from the atmosphere.

Climate change is generally expected to lead to a decrease in biodiversity, not an increase.

The greenhouse effect is the process by which the Earth's atmosphere traps heat from the sun, causing the planet's temperature to rise.

Climate change is generally expected to lead to a decline in soil fertility, not an improvement.

Carbon emission refers to the release of carbon dioxide into the atmosphere from natural sources such as respiration, decomposition, and volcanic eruptions.

Climate change is generally expected to lead to a decline in water quality, not an improvement.
