• Ocean heat content is increasing.
• Air temperature over ocean is increasing.
• Sea surface temperature is increasing.
• Global sea level is rising.
• Humidity is increasing.
• Temperature of the lower atmosphere is increasing.
• Air temperature over land is increasing.

What do scientists believe is the biggest contributor to climate change?

Carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide, ozone, and various chlorofluorocarbons are all human-emitted heat-trapping gases. Among these, carbon dioxide is of greatest concern to scientists because it exerts a larger overall warming influence than the other gases combined.

What are the possible solutions to prevent global warming?

What are the main causes of climate change in South Africa?

The burning of fossil fuels (e.g. through driving cars and to produce electricity), the cutting down of rainforests, the destruction of native vegetation, unsustainable development, the increase of livestock farming, industrial processes and an increased amount of waste going to landfills all contribute to speeding up …

What are the examples of climate change in South Africa?

The various effects of climate change on rural communities are expected to include: drought, depletion of water resources and biodiversity, soil erosion, decreased subsistence economies and cessation of cultural activities.
