Climate change affects global temperature and precipitation patterns. These effects, in turn, influence the intensity and, in some cases, the frequency of extreme environmental events, such as forest fires, hurricanes, heat waves, floods, droughts, and storms...
We have already experienced the effects of climate change through severe weather events, including forest fires, hurricanes, droughts, heat waves, floods, and storms. Computer modeling of real data has shown that the frequency and intensity of these events are influenced by climate change.
There is a distinction that needs to be made when it comes to the relationship between climate change and extreme environmental events: Climate change has not been proven to directly cause individual extreme environmental events, but it has been shown to make these events more destructive, and likely happen more frequently, than they normally would be.
