Climate change
Present-day climate change includes both global warming—the ongoing increase in global average temperature—and its wider effects on Earth's climate system. Climate change in a broader sense also includes previous long-term changes to Earth's climate. The modern-day rise in global temperatures is driven by human activities, especially fossil fuel burning since the Industrial Revolution. Fossil fuel use, deforestation, and some agricultural and industrial practices release greenhouse gases. These gases absorb some of the heat that the Earth radiates after it warms from sunlight, warming the lower atmosphere. Earth's atmosphere now has roughly 50% more carbon dioxide, the main gas driving global warming, than it did at the end of the pre-industrial era, reaching levels not seen for millions of years.

Climate change
Climate change denotes long-term shifts in the average patterns of temperature, precipitation, and other climatic variables on regional and global scales. In the contemporary context, Earth's global surface air temperature has risen about 1.2°C since the 1850–1900 pre-industrial baseline, with annual means in 2023–2024 reaching roughly 1.5°C above that baseline influenced by El Niño, marking 2024 as the confirmed warmest year on record per authoritative datasets; however, this annual exceedance does not indicate a sustained long-term breach of the 1.5°C threshold referenced in the Paris Agreement. This warming reduces Arctic sea ice extent (with natural variability accounting for about 30–50% of the decline) and alters precipitation patterns. It increases the frequency of heatwaves and heavy rainfall events, though attributing specific events requires careful modelling due to natural variability.
