Climate Change

Climate change refers to significant and lasting changes in the Earth’s climate, particularly an increase in temperature due to human activities, such as the burning of fossil fuels, deforestation, and industrial processes. These activities increase the concentration of greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide and methane in the atmosphere, leading to a range of environmental impacts. Climate change manifests through rising global temperatures, altered weather patterns, melting ice caps, and rising sea levels. It poses threats to ecosystems, wildlife, and human societies, impacting agriculture, water supplies, and health. Addressing climate change involves mitigation strategies to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and adaptation strategies to cope with its effects.
