Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

  1. Increased frequency and intensity of heatwaves and droughts, leading to decreased water availability and increased risk of wildfires.
  2. More frequent and severe storms, including hurricanes, tornadoes, and thunderstorms, leading to flooding and property damage.
  3. Changes in precipitation patterns, such as increased rainfall in some areas and decreased rainfall in others, leading to changes in crop yields and water availability.
  4. Rising sea levels and increased coastal erosion, leading to loss of property and infrastructure in coastal communities.
  5. Changes in the distribution and abundance of plant and animal species, as they adapt to changing climatic conditions.
  6. Increased incidence of vector-borne diseases, such as Lyme disease and West Nile virus, as warmer temperatures allow disease-carrying insects to thrive in new areas.
  7. Shifts in the timing of seasonal events, such as flowering and migration, as a result of changing temperatures and weather patterns.
