Step-by-step explanation:
carbon dioxide is a green house gas among many others, human activities Increase the amount of co2 being released. Co2 acts as a global insulator, when the sun rays enter the atmosphere and then bounces back off the earth, the co2 creates a blanket that traps the sun rays. this therein causes the surface of the earth to "heat up" and cause global warming. the increased temperatures triggers another series of events; ice caps begin to melt and in already hot areas there are chances of forest fires etc. the melting of the ice then causes a rise in sea level and the potential release of diseases and other unknown material that was trapped in the ice from different ages ago. the rise in sea level can cause land area to decrease and small islands to be submerged. many habitats would be affected as the ice above the water acts as Insulation that keeps the water below at optimum conditions for sea creatures. on another note, the forest fires destroy habitats and property, this leads to many species becoming endangered and the environment to become inhabitable as the air is not breathable due to thick smoke etc. the fires also contribute back to the global warming and it will just get increasingly worse over a period of time if without interference. the seasons in many place will change to more rapid and serious conditions....
