Block diagram indicating primary causes and wide-ranging effects, including feedback, of global warming and climate change.
This diagram image could be re-created using vector graphics as an SVG file. This has several advantages; see Commons:Media for cleanup for more information. If an SVG form of this image is available, please upload it and afterwards replace this template with {{vector version available|new image name}}.


It is recommended to name the SVG file “20200101 Global warming - climate change - causes effects feedback.svg”—then the template Vector version available (or Vva) does not need the new image name parameter.

Summary[edit]

Description
English:
  • Block diagram indicating primary causes and wide-ranging effects, including feedback, of global warming and climate change.
  • Of course, other elements and causal paths (arrowed connecting lines) could have been included, but are omitted to keep the diagram reasonably simple for a lay audience.

—————————————————————————

The primary causes[1] and the wide-ranging effects[2][3] of global warming and resulting climate change. Some effects constitute feedback mechanisms that intensify climate change toward climate tipping points.[4]
