Read the following passage carefully and answer the questions No.s1to3:

Global warming refers to the gradual increasein the Earth's average temperature, primarily due to human activities such as burning fossil fuels(coal, oil, natural gas), deforestation,, and industrial processes. These activities release greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide(CO,)and methane(CH,)into the atmosphere, which trap heat and cause the planet to warmup.As aresult, the Earth's climate is undergoing significant changes.

One ofthe most noticeable effects ofglobal warming is the melting oficecaps and glaciers, especially in the polar regions. The rise in global temperatures accelerates the melting process, leading to arise in sea levels. This can result in the flooding of coastal areas, affecting millions ofpeople around the world.

Global warming also causes extreme weather events like heatwaves, droughts, and hurricanes to become more frequent and intense. These events not only pose a threat to human lives but also disrupt ecosystems, agriculture, and water resources. Another concern is the loss ofbiodiversity. Many species of plants and animals cannot adapt quickly to the changing climate, leading to a decline in their populations.

To mitigate the effects of global warming, international agreements like the Paris Agreement aim to reduce carbon emissions and promote the use of renewable energy sources. Governments, organizations, and individuals all have arole to play in addressing this pressing issue.
