It is what keeps the earth warm by keeping 70% of the emissions on Earth. The other 30% are naturally released back into space.¹ However, due to the increased of human activities every year, the Greenhouse Effect is trapping more emissions on earth. With the growth of emissions, gases are not filtering back into outer space. Therefore, the result of additional trapped emissions is causing an increased temperature on earth. The increased emissions are due to the major activities, such as the industrial processes, wasteful lifestyle, transportation, and electricity. These activities produce carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide, water vapor, and other gases.¹
   

  The Greenhouse Effect can also be like being under a blanket in the sunshine; the body under the blanket will heat up and the blanket will keep the heat from escaping causing warming.¹

  
  The increase of human activities, such as the ones mentioned above is impacting the Greenhouse Effect, which is causing an increased temperature leading us to climate change. The changes include more powerful storms, longer and heavier floods and monsoon seasons, and sea level rises.² Climate change is negatively impacting the world. However, third world countries are facing much more difficulties compared to developing countries. Citizens in third world countries are being forced to leave their homes for safety. Already facing limited resources and living under the poverty line, citizens are not receiving much help. They are legally known as displaced individuals.³ These displaced people are "persons or groups of persons who have been forced or obliged to flee or to leave their homes or places of habitual residence, in particular as a result of or in order to avoid the effects of armed conflicts, situation of generalized violence, violations of human rights or natural or human-made disasters, and who have not crossed an internationally recognized State border."³ However, many scientists and reporters are referring them as climate refugees.
