Why do small changes in the Earths temperature have a big impact?
Global warming and climate change are controversial topics. A scientific consensus reached by more than 2,500 experts concludes that the Earth is undergoing climate change on a global scale and that it’s likely much of this is due to human activities. There are other scientists with dissenting opinions who say the evidence doesn’t support this conclusion, though most of them also agree that the data shows a gradual increase in the Earth’s temperature. Whether you agree with the consensus or not, there’s no denying that even a small change in temperature can have enormous consequences. Temperature plays an important part in shaping weather patterns, guiding the life cycle of various organisms and maintaining ocean l
