Different places have different climates. A desert, for example, ( refer) to as a dry climate because little water falls during the year. In polar regions, however, rising global temperatures (associate) with climate change mean that ice sheets and glaciers are melting at an accelerated rate from season to season. This contributes to sea level rise in ( difference) regions of the planet. Together with expanding ocean waters due to rising temperatures, the rise in sea level has begun to damage coastlines a result of increasing flooding.
The cause of current climate change is largely human activities, like burning fossil fuels, include natural gas, oil, and coal. Burning these materials ( release) greenhouse gases into the Earth's atmosphere. These gases trap heat from the sun's rays inside the atmosphere, (cause) the Earth's average temperature to rise. The warming of the planet impacts local and ( region ) climates. Throughout the Earth's history, climate has ( continual )changed. When occurring naturally, this is slow process that has taken place over hundreds or thousands of years. The human influenced climate change that is happening now is occurring at a much faster rate.
