What are the consequences of global warming?

Well, global warming is synonymous with (= equals to) an increase in the temperatures on Earth, so it obviously creates climate changes. Global warming causes seasonal changes, and it also alters (= changes) the intensity (= the strength) and the frequency of climactic events. For example, we seem to get more typhoons and hurricanes, and they are becoming stronger than in the past, because the oceans are warmer. Climate changes also trigger heavy precipitations (= rainfall) and snow storms, just like the one we experienced two years ago here in China. Broader effects are expected to include the melting of the glaciers in the north and south poles, which will result in rising sea levels worldwide. It's pretty scary.
