Climate Change

Climate Change refers to significant and lasting alterations in the Earth’s climate, primarily driven by human activities such as the burning of fossil fuels, deforestation, and industrial processes. These actions increase the concentration of greenhouse gases (like carbon dioxide and methane) in the atmosphere, leading to a rise in global temperatures and changes in weather patterns. The effects of climate change include more frequent and severe weather events, rising sea levels, and disruptions to ecosystems and biodiversity. It poses widespread challenges to natural environments, human health, agriculture, and economies. Addressing climate change requires global cooperation to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and adapt to its impacts.
