Why does global warming lead to extreme climate?
When the global average temperature rises 1℃, great changes will take place: sea level rises, glaciers in mountainous areas shrink, and the snow area shrinks. As the global temperature rises, it will lead to unbalanced precipitation, with precipitation increasing in some areas and decreasing in some areas.
Global warming has increased precipitation in Chinese mainland, especially in the middle and high latitudes, and reduced precipitation in some areas such as Africa. Frequency and intensity of extreme weather and climate events (El Nino, drought, flood, thunderstorm, hail, storm, high temperature weather and sandstorm, etc.). ) has increased in some areas.

Climate warming factor
1, the factor of population explosion
The rapid growth of population is one of the main factors leading to global warming. At the same time, it also seriously threatens the balance between the natural ecological environment. With such a huge population, the amount of carbon dioxide emitted by itself every year will be an amazing number, and the result will directly lead to the continuous increase of carbon dioxide content in the atmosphere, thus directly affecting the climate change on the earth's surface.
2, atmospheric environmental pollution factors
The increasingly serious environmental pollution has become a major global problem, and it is also one of the main factors leading to global warming. The research on global climate change in 2 1 century has clearly pointed out that the temperature of the earth's surface has been rising since the end of last century.
3. Factors of marine ecological environment deterioration
The change of sea level is on the rise. According to the prediction of relevant experts, the sea level may rise by 50 cm by the middle of the next century. If no measures are taken, it will directly lead to the destruction and pollution of fresh water resources and other adverse consequences.
