The document discusses the greenhouse effect and its consequences. It begins by explaining the greenhouse effect and the different gases that cause it, such as carbon dioxide and methane. Examples of sources of these gases, like the burning of fossil fuels, are provided. The consequences of the greenhouse effect mentioned include climatic warming leading to rising sea levels and extreme weather events like droughts, hurricanes, and wildfires. Health issues are also exacerbated as rising temperatures spread diseases. Insurance companies incur large financial losses from more frequent natural disasters.
