is can destroy a lot of stuff

Tornado's can also also be a extreme weather as it can severely destroy houses, and buildings.

I agree with these other posts about extreme weather, it can cause peoples lives and homes!

I noticed that climate change is becoming a big problem, because of increasing temperatures. last  summer it was hot with very high temperatures in my hometown. some  days  there were strong floods, creating landslides not far from where i live because of the very high temperatures and some plants in my garden dried up.

In the last years because of the climate change, natural disasters incrased, and many people have lost their family, friends, house, work and so on. If we don't want that this will have a largest incrase in the next years, or we don't want that this will happen to us, we have to pay attention and reduce our emission of carbon, so we can save the planet, many people and the nature.

72 F today

The weather is changing a lot because of Global warming. The climate is changing and it is getting hotter. This is mostly caused by the greenhouse effect. It is scientifically molecules that are uneven are getting heat and holding the heat and they move around like particles. The atmosphere keeps these molecules in which means they cant leave and because of that the heat never leaves. If this continues to happen many animals can die and lose their habitat like polar bears. We need to find a way to fix this.

Its crazy how the weather has gotten more powerful and destructive because of humanity's actions

Yes I agree with you that global warming is affecting many things like the animals and their habitats are starting to change, and we should do something to stop it.

I noticed that today climate change is a serius problem, for example where i live in winter it snows only 1/2 times a year and not even too much snow, here we have also a glacier (Presena)  that is melting because this temperature changes

I think extreme weather is a big problem because it is due to of global warming.
For example in my town this summer it was so hot in comparison to the other years and when it rained the wather created a lot of disasters like landslides.
Global warming is dangerous for the animals and the humans on the earth.
One of the biggest problems is also the glaciers that are melting, for example I live near the Adamello glacier, an old glacier that unfortunately is dying due to high temperatures

I noticed that today climate change is a serious problem, for example in winter it snows only 1/2 times a year and not even too much snow

I guess if we use more pubblic transports and less car for only one person it will better for our planet and there will less pollution

Extreme weather events have become increasingly frequent and severe, posing significant threats to communities and ecosystems worldwide. From devastating hurricanes and floods to intense heatwaves and droughts, these phenomena are largely driven by climate change, which alters weather patterns and increases the intensity of storms. The impacts of extreme weather are felt disproportionately, often affecting the most vulnerable populations who may lack the resources to prepare for or recover from such events. These incidents can lead to loss of life, displacement, and economic instability, underscoring the urgent need for robust climate adaptation strategies. By investing in resilient infrastructure, enhancing early warning systems, and promoting sustainable practices, we can better prepare for and mitigate the effects of extreme weather, ultimately safeguarding lives and livelihoods while fostering a more resilient future.

We have to use less fossil fuel.

I completely agree that reducing our use of fossil fuels is essential for creating a more sustainable future. Fossil fuels are a major contributor to climate change, air pollution, and other environmental issues. By finding ways to cut back—whether through using public transportation, investing in renewable energy, or adopting more energy-efficient technologies—we can make a significant impact. It's not just about individual actions; we also need systemic changes that support a shift away from fossil fuels. This includes advocating for policies that promote clean energy sources and encouraging companies to prioritize sustainability. Every small step counts, and collectively, we can drive the change we need for a healthier planet.

Extreme events are occurrences of unusually severe weather or climate conditions that can cause devastating impacts on communities and agricultural and natural ecosystems. Weather-related extreme events are often short-lived and include heat waves, freezes, heavy downpours, tornadoes, tropical cyclones and floods. Climate-related extreme events either persist longer than weather events or emerge from the accumulation of weather or climate events that persist over a longer period of time. Examples include drought resulting from long periods of below-normal precipitation or wildfire outbreaks when a prolonged dry, warm period follows an abnormally wet and productive growing season.This type of probabilistic approach is applied in extreme event attribution to determine whether global warming is driving changes in the frequency and intensity of extreme events.
The second approach is more widely applied by the climate adaptation community and uses impact-related thresholds to determine if an event is extreme, and to inform adaptive solutions. A common example here is the number of consecutive days over 100˚F, which can be used to quantify heat waves. There has been a substantial increase in most measures of Atlantic hurricane activity since the early 1980s, the period during which high quality satellite data are available. These include measures of intensity, frequency, and duration as well as the number of strongest (Category 4 and 5) storms.
The recent increases in activity are linked, in part, to higher sea surface temperatures in the region that Atlantic hurricanes form in and move through. Numerous factors have been shown to influence these local sea surface temperatures, including natural variability, human-induced emissions of heat-trapping gasses, and particulate pollution. Tornadoes are outgrowths of powerful thunderstorms that appear as rotating, funnel-shaped clouds. They extend from a thunderstorm to the ground with violent winds that average 30 miles per hour. Also, they can vary in speed dramatically from being stationary to 70 miles per hour. With a loud roar that sounds similar to a freight train, tornadoes in the United States typically are 500 feet across and travel on the ground for five miles.
Every state is at some risk from tornadoes and the severe storms that produce them. These same destructive storms also cause strong gusts of wind, lightning strikes, and flash floods. In my life, I haven’t experienced much extreme weather, the only thing that i’ve really experienced is extreme cold. Every year, we tend to have a lot of snow days and really cold school days. We also get a lot of ice on the road which is the reason for the snow days. Blizzards can also lead to power outages. Many people who live in big cities and towns lose power due to these heavy amounts of snow, wind, and freezing air.

The burning of fossil fuels and car emissions returns carbon back into the atmosphere as carbon dioxide according to the understanding Global Change from ugc Berkeley. This is significant because the carbon dioxide being released into the atmosphere results in climate change issues which can lead to extreme weather conditions.On the account of Earthjustice.org, “Hurricanes are growing more powerful as global temperatures rise because these storm systems draw their energy from warm ocean water.” If there is no change made to stop the carbon dioxide output into the atmosphere from around the world, the ocean waters will continue to become warmer. This is a big concern, weather wise, for coastal regions all over the globe. Stronger hurricanes can destroy cities and lives, setting people so far back that some may never recover fully. This is not only a research matter but it also affects me personally for I am from Puerto Rico, which is essentially an island surrounded by ocean water; heavily affected by hurricanes and other water related catastrophes. Hurricanes getting stronger due to climate change strike fear into my heart, because once hurricanes happen, especially strong ones, food sources are limited, chances of reaching safety in time are low, and the damages to structures are devastating. With that being said, we can look at helping nations such as Puerto Rico in other ways than we have before. Currently I feel like the main focus for preventing hurricane damages is by putting up guards to protect windows and beams. I am not saying that those strategies are bad in any way. But what about preventing strong hurricanes in the first place? If people around the world individually would pay more attention to their carbon footprint and do little things to reduce it, combined with more laws and innovations to help industrial plants still people able to produce goods. The earth will be less contaminated with carbon dioxide, causing global warming to decrease. Over time this will call for smaller storms and less significant damage.https://ugc.berkeley.edu/    https://earthjustice.org/

Extreme weather like heat waves, droughts, and heavy rainfall, create a long list of effects to the environment. It is affected by the climate, which then affects individuals, and so on. For example, hurricanes tend to occur in warmer climates. This is because evaporation intensifies as the temperatures rise as well as the transfer of heat from the oceans to the air. So, as the storm travels over the oceans, it pulls in more water vapor and heat, which means stronger wind, rain, and flooding. This is important because human-caused global warming makes the storm surges worse, and more damage will be done to these “hurricane prone” areas. As the climate gets warmer, the hurricanes and storms will be worse. It takes months or years to rebuild these communities in the warmer climates after they have been hit by a storm, and citizens can lose their homes or their lives because of it. With that being said, there are many ways to reduce our ways of global warming, like using less electricity, and even eating more vegetables. By eating more vegetables, it can lower the amount of greenhouse gas emissions and it requires less energy, heat, and water. By doing just this, you can reduce your carbon footprint by almost 500 kilograms of CO2e per year. Another way to slow down global warming would be simply cleaning up your environment. Humans as well as animals and even the land around you are all affected by improper waste disposal. If you have trash, throw it out properly, and try to only use what is necessary. You can also volunteer to help in local clean-ups around your community. Speaking up and being a leader is one of the best ways you can help and slow down human-caused global warming and climate change. It will be very beneficial towards extreme weather and communities that are affected by it.

The reason why extreme weather happens is because human activity is causing rapid changes to our global climate that are contributing to extreme weather conditions. When fossil fuels are burned for electricity, heat, and traps solar radiation, is released into our atmosphere. Over the past century, massive increases in carbon dioxide, methane, and other greenhouse gas emissions have caused the temperature on our planet to rise. That spike in global temperatures is fueling climate disasters that will only get worse unless we take action. Experts warn that we are running out of time to dramatically cut pollution to avoid climate catastrophe.
Extreme events are occurrences of unusually sever weather or climate conditions that can cause devastating impact on communities and agricultural and nature ecosystems. A common example is the number of consecutive days over 100 F, which can be used to quantify heat waves. This portion of the Climate Hubs website expands on the types of extreme events that impact the different climate hub regions. Climate change is expected to worsen the frequency, intensity, and impacts of some types of extreme weather events. There can be as many as 40,000 thunderstorms each day around the world. They are most common in the U.S., where they can produce tornadoes, floods, lightning and damaging winds. A thunderstorm is classified as “severe” when it contains one or more of the following: hail one inch or greater, winds gusting in excess of 50 knots (57.5 mph), or a tornado. Thunderstorms are most likely in the spring and summer months and during the afternoon and evening hours, but they can occur year-round and at all hours.
Much about tornadoes remains a mystery. They are rare, unpredictable and deadly. The U.S. has more tornadoes than anywhere else in the world. Tornadoes occur in many parts of the world, including Australia, Europe, Africa, Asia, and South America. Even New Zealand reports about 20 tornadoes each year. Two of the highest concentrations of tornadoes outside the U.S. are Argentina and Bangladesh. The truth is that we don't fully understand. The most destructive tornadoes occur from supercells, which are rotating thunderstorms with a well-defined radar circulation called a mesocyclone. (Supercells can also produce damaging hail, severe non-tornadic winds, frequent lightning, and flash floods.) Tornado formation is believed to be dictated mainly by things which happen on the storm scale, in and around the mesocyclone.

Our thoughts about the connection between climate change and extreme weather events are that scientists use a combination of climate models and land, air, sea, and space-based observations to research how extreme weather events change over time. First, scientists examine historical records to determine the frequency and intensity of past events. Many of these long-term records date back to the 1950s, though some start in the 1800s. Then scientists use climate models to see if the number or strength of these events is changing, or will change, due to increasing greenhouse gasses when compared to what has happened historically. As Earth’s climate changes, it is impacting extreme weather across the planet. Record-breaking heat waves on land and in the ocean, drenching rains, severe floods, years-long droughts, extreme wildfires, and widespread flooding during hurricanes are all becoming more frequent and more intense. Climate change continues to expose more of the global population to more frequent and severe extreme weather events. Recent research shows that these changes in extreme weather have not, as yet, consistently motivated changes in opinions about climate change or changes in climate-related behavior. Extreme weather may reinforce opinions among people who are already worried about climate change, yet be misattributed or misperceived by those who are unconcerned. However, the characteristics and severity of personal experience may influence its impacts on climate opinions. Future research should consider appropriate research designs, such as matching or panel data, to disentangle the effects of experience from other factors, while also respecting ethical considerations for research among disaster survivors. As the impacts of climate change become increasingly evident at the local level, it becomes increasingly important to understand how these experiences interact with other factors to shape mitigation and adaptation decisions. Human activity is causing rapid changes to our global climate that are contributing to extreme weather conditions. When fossil fuels are burned for electricity, heat, and transportation, carbon dioxide, a greenhouse gas that traps solar radiation, is released into our atmosphere. Long-term changes in climate can directly or indirectly affect many aspects of society in potentially disruptive ways. For example, warmer average temperatures could increase air conditioning costs and affect the spread of diseases like Lyme disease, but could also improve conditions for growing some crops. More extreme variations in weather are also a threat to society. More frequent and intense extreme heat events can increase illnesses and deaths, especially among vulnerable populations, and damage some crops. While increased precipitation can replenish water supplies and support agriculture, intense storms can damage property, cause loss of life and population displacement, and temporarily disrupt essential services such as transportation, telecommunications, energy, and water supplies.

The CO2 (Carbon Dioxide) levels in the air change how plants “breathe”. Plants “breathe” through the Stomata. These are the microscopic pores that plants take in CO2 through, in turn, releasing H2O (water) and O2 (Oxygen) into the atmosphere. These pores are then affected by the CO2 levels in the air, with higher concentrations leading to the closing of these pores. This leads to plants keeping in more H2O, meaning they release less into the atmosphere.
Subsequently, this affects rainfall patterns. Researchers note, “the reduction in water released by stomata through transpiration will result in changing rainfall patterns across the tropics.” (Asher). Although it changes the rainfall patterns, it has drastically different effects depending on the location. For example, in South America, rainfall patterns are influenced heavily by the amount of moisture released from plants. Meaning, that if plants retain moisture, it could lead to longer and deeper droughts. Forests in Indonesia, for example, are surrounded by humid air, and warm oceans. Reduced transpiration would mean that more warm air rises, which draws in the ocean's moistened air, leading to heavy rainfall. Researchers concluded that although their models lead to a dryer South America, and a wetter Indonesia, it is impossible to predict exactly what will happen.
Other researchers argue the claims of this study, even though the average of all models used predict the same thing. Douglas Sheil, a tropical forest ecologist at the Norwegian University of Life Sciences, points out that climate models are known for being poor at accurately predicting the water cycle. “Personally… I don't think [the study conclusion] is convincing.” (Sheil). But, even with his disagreements, he still agrees that the study addresses an important issue.
In conclusion, plants retaining their moisture drastically change the rainfall in some regions, causing extreme weather conditions and patterns. Even if some researchers don't agree with the study, the study still addresses an important issue. An issue, that we as a global community, need to figure out how to fix.

Extreme weather events are getting more common, more expensive and harder to accurately predict. The cost per event has increased nearly 77% over the past five decades. July 2021's floods across Germany, Belgium, Luxembourg and the Netherlands generated an estimated $43 billion in damages and killed 200 people.In Sudan in 2020, more than 700,000 people were displaced by the most severe storms since 1962. Floods in central China's Henan province killed dozens and displaced more than 250,000 and significantly disrupted economic activity. While extreme events have increased more than five times over the same number of decades, the cost of extreme events has increased nearly eight times globally since the 1970s. Also natural disasters can cause a lot of damage and require a lot of money to rebuild. Snow removal, rehabilitation and repair efforts and costs. For example, the city of Buffalo budgeted approximately $9 million for snow removal alone in 2014-2015. This just goes to show how extreme weather is affecting countries in huge ways. It is also admitting a lot of carbon. Jerry Brown recently proposed a $1 billion plan that will bring aid to the communities hit the hardest by the current statewide drought. This will create jobs locally. So extreme weather can stimulate economies while also costing the city, state and national governments great amounts. This is just one way that we can help improve the issues at hand. Again, Regardless of one’s personal views, there is no doubt that extreme weather can have profound effects on local, state and national economies. Economic harms from extreme weather and climate events have become more commonplace due to increasing temperatures, sea levels, and economic development in areas vulnerable to these events. In recent years, the United States has experienced, on average, more than one disaster that has caused over a billion dollars in damages each month. To put this in perspective, until this past decade, the country rarely experienced a year with more than a handful of billion-dollar weather and climate disasters. Because of this it is crucial to come up with ways to help improve the effects of extreme weather.

extreme weather is influenced by climate change. For example the amount of rain in the sky is due to ice caps melting and more water getting released which in turn make rain more heavy and more dangerous. Another example is droughts which have been increasing at an alarming rate due to the fact that water is getting sparce in some areas and the heat from the sun is increasing due to greenhouse gas emmisions.

I also think that extreme weather is caused by climate change and is something that can be avoided or less extreme if the world made more effort to battle climate change. Some places are drier and are reaching dangerous levels of high temperature and heat while others are experiencing extreme cold weather. Yet there are still people with higher power that are convincing other people that climate change is not real.

I 100% agree. In Maine we didn’t have any snow during Christmas and now it’s spring and we’re about to get dumped on with predictions of 2 feet of snow. We also had 3 100 year storms. 3 times in the last few months we’ve been completely flooded, roads blocked and unable to leave our driveway. These storms are so uncommon they happen every 100 years. This all has to with climate change and how we’re getting less snow throughout the season and getting rain instead.

I agree! We burn about 40.9 million tons of fossil fuels each year, and we've been burning fossil fuels all the way since the 1800s (of course, the yearly emissions have increased a lot since then). With these emissions, we're releasing so much carbon dioxide into the atmosphere, leading to the air and oceans to warm. The warming of the air and oceans increases the rate of land and sea ice melting, leading to a rise in sea level. With the rising of the sea level, we're going to see a lot more coastal "high-tide" flooding, as well as flooding cities through inlets and rivers. On the flip side, as the earth warms, drier climates (including, not limited to deserts) are going to get drier. The hotter air will lead to more evaporation of water from the ground, and droughts get more severe.

Did you guys notice that it has been so hot lately? It is just April and I could die of heat. AC are on everywhere I go. But, why is this? The reason is because of GLOBAL WARMING. It is is the long-term heating of Earth's surface observed since the pre-industrial period (between 1850 and 1900) due to human activities, primarily fossil fuel burning, which increases heat-trapping greenhouse gas levels in Earth's atmosphere. Because of global warming, many animals are dying. The polar bears in North Pole are dying because of the heat. The ice that they are living on are slowly melting. In a few decades, or even less, they are going to be no ice. They are all just going to die!

The polar bears are not just going to be the target of global warming. We, humans, are also going to be targets. This is because in a few decades, the temperature on Earth might be 50 degrees or more. Can humans survive this temperature? I don't think so. Maybe humans can't even survive 40 degrees. Don't say that this is not possible. These few days in Taiwan are 30 degrees. It is only April!!! So maybe next few years will actually be 40 degrees!

Global warming is actually a cycle. First, people invented the AC because it gets too hot during the summer. When people used it in the summer, the inside stays cold, but in contrast, hot air will be released into the atmosphere. Slowly over time, it gets hotter and hotter everywhere around the world. Humans can't stand a little hot, so they will turn on the AC. So it goes on and on and on. Until maybe the winter won't be cold anymore. No more spring, fall, or winter. Summer all year!

In conclusion, global warming is a serious issue on Earth. If we don't fix this problem, we are all going to die. You can reduce this issue by saving energy, such as using fans instead of AC or turn off the light if you are not using it. You can also walk to places if they are close to your location or prevent driving cars and take public transportation with many more people. You can stop wasting food and reduce, reuse, and recycle. By accomplishing these steps, you will not only make a huge change to yourself, but also a huge change to the world.

For not have the extreme weather in summer like the others summers, We need to recycle more for not having a bad weather.

I agree with you but I think that recycling isn't the only reason for extreme weather. 1.3 billion metric tons of CO2 emissions are generated annually when the trash that could be recycled goes into landfills. Based off this drastically high number you would think this could be a leading cause of the extreme weather, but really a lot of different CO2 emissions weigh into it, not just people not recycling. I think if we are trying to stop or slow down these weather events there are a lot of other measures we could also take. Some examples are, taking a bike or electric car compared to gas cars, eat less meat & dairy, and reduce your energy usage.

You are correct but the same time recycling wont compleatly change the weather it will help but we need to limit other things as well. We need to stop burning as much fossil fuels, trash, and stop flying so much and the weather will improve.

Yes, while this is true it does not fully affect the climate. This may make a change but in the long run it will take a lot more then just recycling. It does have a massive foot print on climate change but so does things such as over heating houses, and heating a house when it is not needed. With things like driving and flying have a huge foot print. So while recycling more will help it will not be a fix to climate change.
