Solution

Sand storms

Explanation:

Global warming causes a rise in Earth’s temperature, leading to effects such as coastal flooding due to sea level rise, climate change with irregular weather patterns, and droughts caused by decreased rainfall and melting glaciers. However, sandstorms are not directly an effect of global warming; they are more related to local soil dryness and wind conditions rather than the overall increase in global temperatures. Thus, sandstorms are not considered an effect of global warming.
