Greenhouse Gas Emissions have far-ranging environmental & health effects. They cause climate change by trapping heat, & they also contribute to respiratory disease from smog & air pollution. Extreme weather, food supply disruptions, & increased wildfires are other effects of climate change caused by greenhouse Gas Emissions.
