How is climate change effecting our planet?
The burning of fossils fuels along with other things is what is adding to the green house effect which is warming out planet and making our air temperatures higher and our water temperatures higher. Both, are contributing to the damage of the plants and animals that live on land and in our oceans on our planet.
The greenhouse effect is a process that occurs when gases in Earth's atmosphere trap the Sun's heat. This process makes Earth much warmer than it would be without an atmosphere. The greenhouse effect is one of the things that makes Earth a comfortable place to live.
