Climate Change

Climate Change refers to significant and lasting changes in the Earth’s climate patterns, particularly those related to temperature, precipitation, and wind patterns. It is primarily driven by human activities such as burning fossil fuels, deforestation, and industrial processes that increase the concentration of greenhouse gases (like carbon dioxide and methane) in the atmosphere. These changes can result in various environmental impacts, including rising global temperatures, melting ice caps, shifting weather patterns, and increased frequency of extreme weather events. Climate change poses serious risks to ecosystems, human health, agriculture, and economies worldwide. Efforts to combat climate change focus on reducing greenhouse gas emissions, enhancing energy efficiency, transitioning to renewable energy sources, and adapting to its effects.
