Which of the following describes 'Positive Feedback' in climate change?
AA process that reduces the initial warming
BA process that amplifies the initial warming

DA process that only happens in the lab
✓ Correct Answer: B — A process that amplifies the initial warming
Positive feedback loops, like ice-albedo feedback, accelerate the original change (warming leads to more warming).
