Answer 2

2-4

Step-by-step explanation:

2018 US government report presents news on climate change science, and examines how global warming is likely to affect different regions of the country.

Higher temperatures (more than 2 degrees on average) and drier conditions have led to larger fires in the western United States, the report says, and this trend will continue as the planet warms and the fire season lengthens in future decades.

Persistent droughts have helped accelerate groundwater depletion for consumption and agriculture in the southwest and midwest of the United States, according to the analysis. Along the east coast, the combination of rising seas and extreme precipitation increased flood risks.
