Premise: Global warming , also referred to as climate change , is the observed century-scale rise in the average temperature of the Earth 's climate system and its related effects . Future climate change and associated impacts will differ from region to region around the globe . Anticipated effects include warming global temperature , rising sea levels , changing precipitation , and expansion of deserts in the subtropics . Warming is expected to be greater over land than over the oceans and greatest in the Arctic , with the continuing retreat of glaciers , permafrost and sea ice . Effects significant to humans include the threat to food security from decreasing crop yields and the abandonment of populated areas due to rising sea levels .
Hypothesis: Global warming effects all regions in exactly the same way.
