The Effects

History of Climate Change:

Climate change started in the 1700s when the invention of the coal engine started the industrial revolution. After the invention of the coal engine and use of fossil fuels the population reached one billion and the consumption of fossil fuels increased. A French physicist learns about the greenhouse effect and soon after an Irish physicist understands how the greenhouse effect forms. The invention of the automobile started an increase in the use of fossil fuels. A Swedish chemist figured out that even a small increase in temperature could radically impact the future of our planet. The amount of fossil fuel burning reaches around one billion tons a year. From 1927 on, the amount of damage we did had a constant increase and got worse and worse.

Some effects of climate change are:

- Sea Ice melting

- Higher sea levels

- Drastic changes in the temperature

- More damaging natural disasters

- Less rain in places and more heat in others

-Animal habitats being destroyed
