Ito ang pangkaraniwan at pangmatagalang
kalagayan at katangian ng panahon sa isang
takdang lugar o rehiyon.
Ang Pilipinas ay mayroong TROPICAL CLIMATE kung kaya nakararanas tayo
ng mahabang panahon ng tag-araw at mahabang panahon ng tag-ulan.
TAG-ARAW TAG-ULAN
WINTER/ SPRING/
TAG-LAMIG TAG-SIBOL
SUMMER/ FALL/
TAG-INIT TAG-LAGAS
Ilan ang mga ito sa mga na inaaral o sinusuri upang maintidihan
ang klima sa isang lugar.
Ang climate change ay isang natural na
proseso ng pagbabago ng klima.
Gaano katagal nagaganap ang normal na pagbabago ng klima?
a. 100 years
b. 1,000 years
c. 10,000 years
d. 100,000 years
e. More than 1,000,000 years
Ang pagkakaroon natin ngayon ng mas mabilis na
pagbabago ng klima ay dahil sa mas mabilis na pagtaas ng
temperatura sa mundo.

Dalawa sa mga halimbawa ng GHG ay ang carbon dioxide
(CO2) at methane (CH4).

GREENHOUSE GASES AND THEIR ORIGINS
Carbon Dioxide (CO2)
• Carbon dioxide is the gas responsible for around 76%
of global greenhouse gas emissions.
• It can be removed from the atmosphere through
planting trees and reforestation.
• Produced by the natural processes of respiration
(breathing) and decay, but without human activity
this output would be balanced by nature and
reabsorbed by trees and the oceans.
• Most human activity results in the release of carbon
dioxide – especially burning fossil fuels, deforestation,
heating our homes and running our cars.
GREENHOUSE GASES AND THEIR
ORIGINS
Methane (CH4)
• Naturally generated during decomposition of organic
matter.
• It is also produced by animals and released by
natural gas deposits.
• Human activities like dairy and beef cattle farming,
poor waste management, burning of fossil fuels and
drilling for natural gas significantly add to the level
of methane in the atmosphere.
GREENHOUSE GASES AND THEIR
ORIGINS
Water Vapor (H2O)
• Biggest contributor to the ‘natural greenhouse effect’
and varies the most in the atmosphere.
• Human activities have little impact on the level of
water vapor in the atmosphere.
GREENHOUSE GASES AND THEIR
ORIGINS
Nitrous Oxide (NO2)
• Makes up a tiny percentage of the total greenhouse
gas content of our atmosphere compared to CO2.
• Mainly produced by human activities such as burning
fossil fuels and wood, sewage treatment and the
widespread use of nitrogen-based fertilizers.
GREENHOUSE GASES AND THEIR
ORIGINS
“F” Gases
• These gases contribute directly to climate change.
They include:
• Hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs) – found in air
conditioners and fridges.
• Perfluorocarbons (PFCs) – used by the
electronics and pharmaceutical industries.
• Human activities cause the ‘F’ gases to be released
into the atmosphere.
GREENHOUSE GASES AND THEIR
ORIGINS
Sulphur Dioxide (SO2)
• All human activities that involve the burning of fossil
fuels release sulphur dioxide into the atmosphere.
• It is also produced naturally by volcanoes.
Ang isang epekto ng climate change ay ang pagkakaroon ng
extreme at unpredictable na panahon.
Maaari tayong makaranas ng malalakas at matitinding ulan, bagyo o init. Maaari rin itong mangyari sa
hindi inaasahang panahon. Halimbawa, kahit na sa panahon ng tag-araw ay biglang may darating na
bagyo, o di kaya naman kahit panahon ng tag-ulan ay makaranas pa rin tayo ng matinding init.

Ang climate change ay nakapagdudulot rin ng takot, lungkot
at pangamba. Maari rin itong makaapekto sa mental health.

Snow and ice covers much of the Arctic land
and ocean. Because snow and ice is bright
white, as much as 90% of the solar energy that
hits them reflects back into space.
