Tag: Climate Change

Climate change is a phenomenon that involves the gradual changes in global weather patterns, such as temperature, precipitation, and wind patterns, over an extended period. It is predominantly caused by human activities, such as burning fossil fuels and deforestation, that release large amounts of greenhouse gases into the atmosphere, leading to the trapping of heat and an increase in the planet’s temperature. Climate change has various environmental, economic, and social impacts, such as the rise in sea levels, more frequent and severe weather conditions, and the displacement of vulnerable communities. To address climate change, it requires collective efforts at the local, national, and international levels to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, shift to sustainable energy sources, and safeguard ecosystems and biodiversity.
