Climate Change

Climate Change refers to significant and lasting changes in the Earth’s climate, primarily driven by human activities such as the burning of fossil fuels, deforestation, and industrial processes. These activities increase the concentration of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, leading to a rise in global temperatures, altered weather patterns, melting ice caps and glaciers, and sea-level rise. Climate change can result in serious environmental, social, and economic impacts, including increased frequency of extreme weather events, disruptions to ecosystems, threatened food and water security, and challenges to human health. It emphasizes the need for mitigation and adaptation strategies to address its effects and reduce future risks.
