Rising water vapour in atmosphere making weather worse
This year’s string of record-breaking disasters – from deadly wildfires and catastrophic floods to record-high ocean temperatures and record-low sea ice in Antarctica – seem like an acceleration of human-induced climate change.
And it is. But not only because greenhouse gas emissions continue to rise. It is also observed that the long-predicted water vapour feedback within the climate system also played a part.
As the atmosphere warms, it can hold more moisture in the form of water vapour, which is also a greenhouse gas. This in turn amplifies the warming caused by our emissions of other greenhouse gases.
Water vapour is part of Earth’s hydrological cycle and plays an important role in the natural greenhouse effect. Its rise is a consequence of the atmospheric warming caused by our emissions arising especially from burning fossil fuels.
all this is happening and there are people who still believe that Climate Change is a hoax smh
Well it is not a hoax definitely, but for sure a tool used by developed nations to hinder growth prospects of developing nations.
