5 pictures that show climate change is real
Global Scientific community believes that a 2 degree rise in temperature from pre-industrial levels can be catastrophic. If emissions continue unabated, the world is on track to exceed the global average temperature by 2 degree Celsius—exposing communities to increasingly dangerous forest fires, extreme weather, drought, and other climate impacts. Below are few images that show us the Startling Effects Of Climate Change
