A correlational study of Internet Usage towards Climate

Change Awareness Among Northern Bukidnon State

College Students
Introduction
The internet can be conceived as a rich, multi-layered complex ever-changing
text for information dissemination and a medium for collaborative interaction
between individuals and computers without regards for geographical limitation
of space Climate change refers to a long-term shift in the average weather
patterns that have come to characterize the local, regional, and global climates
on Earth. By burning fossil fuels that produces carbon dioxide and greenhouse
gas, cutting down trees, and raising livestock, humans are rapidly affecting the
atmosphere and the earth's temperature. Climate change refers to a long-term

humans are rapidly affecting the atmosphere and the earth's temperature. [1].
The internet today is a worldwide entity whose nature cannot be easily or
simply defined. Effect of Internet in Climate change [2] Those scraps of energy,
and the associated greenhouse gases emitted with each online activity, can add
up. The carbon footprint of our gadgets, the internet and the systems
supporting them account for about3.7% of global greenhouse emissions,
according to some estimates. ... And these emissions are predicted to double.
Climate change refers to a long-term shift in the average weather patterns that
have come to characterize the local, regional, and global climates on Earth. By
burning fossil fuels that produces carbon dioxide and greenhouse gas, cutting
down trees, and raising livestock, humans are rapidly affecting the atmosphere
and the earth's temperature. Technology [3] This increases energy consumption
– directly leading to more fossil fuels being burned. Modern planes, cars, trains
and ships have made it possible for us to travel all around the world. But
their technological developments, along with the number of people driving and
traveling – has led to more carbon emissions. Social Media [4] Media coverage
of climate change has had effects on public opinion on climate change, as it
mediates the scientific opinion on climate change that the global temperature
has increased in recent decades and that the trend is mainly caused by human-
induced emissions of greenhouse gases. Awareness [5] It helps people
understand and address the impact of global warming, increases
“climate literacy” among young people, encourages changes in their attitudes
and behavior, and helps them adapt to climate change related trends. Alarmist
[6] alarmist" is primarily used by those who reject the scientific consensus
on climate change as an epithet for those who treat the issue objectively. This
adds massive quantities of greenhouse gases to the already existing ones in the
atmosphere, amplifying the greenhouse effect and contributing to global
warming. People are generally unaware of climate change. Even if the majority
of people claim to be
