We can certainly draw water into our lungs, even though
our brain screams "Don't do that!".
But our lungs can only separate oxygen out of air, not out of
water. So if there's only water in our lungs, we pass out after
a short time because we're not getting any oxygen.

Our lungs are not designed breathe oxygen from water to be able to breathe under water.

As air temperatures increase, evaporation increases. Warmer temperatures also increase the capacity to absorb water vapor. More water vapor in the atmosphere accelerates the greenhouse effect.
