Causes:

The cause of climate change is global warming. The earth is warming up, and that is causing climate change. (Global warming is caused by burning fossil fuels [coal, oil and natural gas] and by deforestation [cutting down the forests that absorb carbon dioxide from the air].)

Results:

The results of climate change are predicted to be:

More extreme weather events (storms, floods, droughts etc).

More frequent weather events (more often).

Rising sea levels, especially if glaciers and the Greenland ice cap melts.

Destruction of some Pacific Island countries, as well as large areas of any low lying land.

Loss of species' habitats as plants and animals have to deal with rising temperatures.

Famine and deaths in some countries, especially in Africa.

The main cause of climate change is the increase in greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, primarily due to human activities such as burning fossil fuels and deforestation. The results of climate change include rising global temperatures, sea level rise, more frequent and severe natural disasters, and disruptions to ecosystems and biodiversity.
