Climate Change

Climate Change refers to significant and lasting changes in the Earth’s climate, primarily due to human activities such as burning fossil fuels, deforestation, and industrial processes. This results in an increase in greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, leading to global warming, which in turn causes shifts in weather patterns, rising sea levels, and increased frequency of extreme weather events. Climate change affects ecosystems, biodiversity, and human societies, causing impacts such as food and water scarcity, health risks, and economic challenges. It is a critical global issue that necessitates mitigation strategies to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and adaptation efforts to prepare for its inevitable effects.
