Answer:

Global warming is caused by gases called green house gases. These green house gases are human made gases that come from things like, cutting down trees, power plants, transportation, farming, fertilizer and oil drilling. The gases get released into the atmosphere and is reflected back to the surface of the earth. This is called the greenhouse gas effect. The gases cause temperatures to rise (climate change) which cause rising sea levels, ice on the poles to melt, increased precipitation and increased forest fires.
