Good knowledge question.

Fruits ripen sooner because of global warming.

Bad question:- Why in global warming do the fruits ripen faster?
Intermediate question:- How do we conclude that the fruits ripen faster when global warming occurs?
Good question:- How do we know global warming affects fruits with the help of natural science, arts, and other areas of knowledge.
