The human activities causing this warming include fossil fuel combustion, cement production, and land use changes such as deforestation, [3]: 10–11 with a significant supporting role from the other greenhouse gases such as methane and nitrous oxide. [1]: 7 This human role in climate change is considered "unequivocal" and "incontrovertible".
This is why summer monsoons cause so much rain over land. In the colder months, the cycle is reversed. Then the land cools faster than the oceans and the air over the land has higher pressure than air over the ocean. This causes the air over the land to flow to the ocean.
