Abstract

This paper presents some of the climate changes that are occurring at Earth level. It highlights particularly the main temperature increases caused by the greenhouse effect. One of the consequences of the temperature increases is the melting of polar ice caps, polar glaciers and mountain glaciers that feed many streams and rivers. The result may be the rising of the sea and ocean level with catastrophic flooding and loss of an important land reservoir of drinking water, without which life is not possible.
