Is climate change a lie?

Is climate change a lie? I will be arguing against this question. 

• Scientific evidence to prove that climate change is true - most scientists agree
• We are seeing the evidence of climate changes already - hotter temperatures mean ice caps are melting, leading to the sea level rising and flooding the Earth
• There is a reason that climate change is happening - we are releasing excessive carbon emissions into the air and not planting enough trees

THESIS: It's the question that the world is wondering: is climate change fake news or is it true? In this essay, I will be discussing why climate change is a very real issue on Earth, and the facts behind it. 

IDEA ORDER:
1. We are already seeing the effects of climate change: hotter temperatures, ice caps melting, sea level rising etc.
2. There is backed up scientific evidence that climate change is real and is happening: include researched info from the internet etc.
3. Climate change isn't happening because of nothing: it's happening because we are releasing too much carbon emissions into the air and destroying the trees.
