You are about to explore what happens to Earth when there's too much CO2 in the atmosphere.It takes only 1 degree to cause catastrophic climate changes.
GLOBAL WARMING AND CLIMATE CHANGE
Storms and extreme rainfall events have always happened, but with the added heat in the atmosphere and oceans due to greenhouse gas emissions, storms now occur with increasing accumulated energy and higher moisture loading. Let's have a look at the ocean. 
It looks peacful, but in fact for every extra degree of warming, the atmosphere holds about 7% more water vapour. Over the past 25 years alone, satellites have measured a 4% rise in atmospheric water vapor, matching the rapid warming of the atmosphere.Let's go the City and see what's happening up close! 
Oh, no! Looks like we are having quite a heavy rainfall down here! Because of human-caused climate change, the storms, cyclones, hurricanes and typhoons we see today are bringing noticeably heavier rainfall, blowing with stronger winds and causing biggers storm surges. Let's have a look at that glacier behind the city. It looks suspicious.
Did you notice? It's almost gone! It melted in front of our eyes! Due to warming of the oceans and atmosphere, the amount of ice on Earth is delining - from glaciers to the Arctic and Antarctic. This is driving sea level rise, reducing the earth's ability to reflect heat energy back out to space. I have a bad feeling aobut it. Let's zoom out to have a look at our Earth
Oh, no! The Earth has flooded! Facts: the June 2016 flooding in Paris and its surrounds was found to have been made at least 40% and as much as 90% - more likely due to climate change. The June-July 2016 flooding in China that killed more than 833 people, destroyed upwards of 400,000 houses and displaced more than 6 million people was made significantly worse by human-caused climate change.
