Effects of Global Warming on Climatic Change??

Climate change affects everyone. Have you noticed that the soil is drying out faster after a heavy rainfall? Or have you witnessed your beautiful landscape garden falling victim to the scorching heat, with flowers withering away? This is due to the climate change brought about by global warming. Recurrent heat waves, droughts and floods are some other consequences of global warming.
Plants and animals are also not spared of the adverse effects of global warming. Forests are affected by ecosystem changes. The flora and fauna may not be able to adapt and they may face extinction.
Global warming also causes the polar caps to melt. Low lying land may eventually become flooded as the sea level rises. There will be more storms and hurricanes. Polar bears could be threatened. When snow and ice melt, their ability to reflect sunlight is lost. This escalates global warming even further.
