If the Earth keeps absorbing more energy than it emits, global temperatures will rise, producing more frequent and intense heat waves, melting glaciers and polar ice and causing sea level rise. Warmer oceans and air will drive stronger storms, alter precipitation patterns and droughts, and harm ecosystems (for example, coral bleaching and species loss). Positive feedbacks — such as reduced ice albedo and carbon release from thawing permafrost — can accelerate warming, with widespread impacts on agriculture, human health, infrastructure and economies.
