With hot summers and increasing temperatures, we know how our vacations are incomplete without air conditioners. Many countries have recorded a never seen rise in temperature that no one could have imagined a few decades ago. Our summer is getting hotter every year because of global warming. Apart from recording temperatures, there are other shocking facts about global warming that you need to be aware of.Before we get into the facts, let's talk about global warming for a minute.<h1>Global warming: What is it, and why should you care?</h1>&nbsp;Have you realized that the summer has extended itself this year? We are facing extreme hotter days during winter as well. This is because of global warming. Global warming is an occurrence in which the temperature of the earth's surface and its oceans gradually rises. Global warming has been seen and experienced over the past century or two. This change in temperature has disrupted the Earth's climate patterns. This phenomenon is mainly caused by greenhouse gases, which are emitted when people burn fossil fuels. These greenhouse gases, such as carbon dioxide and methane, absorb heat that would otherwise escape from the earth’s atmosphere.Global warming has been one of the major concerns of the world, as everyone is affected by it. Many actions have been constantly taken to curb the situation, but global warming prevails.Let’s now read about some interesting facts on global warming that you might not have known until now.<h1>10 facts about global warming you need to know</h1>&nbsp;Here are 10 significant yet interesting facts that everyone needs to be aware of by 2023.<h2>Fact 1</h2>&nbsp;<img class="image_resized" style="width:55.7%;" src="https://strapi.thekarmapoints.com/uploads/image_3_1_cb2dc02990.webp" alt="image (3) (1).webp" srcset="https://strapi.thekarmapoints.com/uploads/thumbnail_image_3_1_cb2dc02990.webp 156w,https://strapi.thekarmapoints.com/uploads/small_image_3_1_cb2dc02990.webp 500w,https://strapi.thekarmapoints.com/uploads/medium_image_3_1_cb2dc02990.webp 750w,https://strapi.thekarmapoints.com/uploads/large_image_3_1_cb2dc02990.webp 1000w," sizes="100vw">Emissions such as carbon dioxide, methane, and other greenhouse gases will stay in the atmosphere for years, making it futile to eradicate global warming over decades.<h2>Fact 2</h2>&nbsp;<img class="image_resized" style="width:51.61%;" src="https://strapi.thekarmapoints.com/uploads/image_3_fddcab1153.webp" alt="image(3).webp" srcset="https://strapi.thekarmapoints.com/uploads/thumbnail_image_3_fddcab1153.webp 156w,https://strapi.thekarmapoints.com/uploads/small_image_3_fddcab1153.webp 500w,https://strapi.thekarmapoints.com/uploads/medium_image_3_fddcab1153.webp 750w,https://strapi.thekarmapoints.com/uploads/large_image_3_fddcab1153.webp 1000w," sizes="100vw">As per climatic studies, the past two decades of the 20th century were the hottest in the history of the last 400 years.
