ABSTRACT
Climate change affects all of us, wherever on Earth we live. Weather is changing and storms are increasing in intensity, stressing agriculture and infrastructure. As carbon dioxide and other gases emitted by burning fossil fuels cause the earth to heat up, more water evaporates into the atmosphere, and the sun’s heat, caught in the thickening atmosphere, drives powerful winds and weather cells, causing droughts, storms and floods more extreme than humans have ever witnessed before.
