•Weather is described as the immediate
condition in a specific place.
•For example, if you see that it is raining
outside right now, that is a way to describe
today’s weather. Rain, snow, wind, hurricanes,
tornadoes — these are all-weather events.
❑ climate is more than just one or two rainy days.

It describes the weather conditions that are expected in a region at a

particular time of year. It is also the usual weather of a place.

The climate can vary in every season.

A place might be mostly warm and dry in the summer, while it may
be cool and wet in the winter.

Different places can have different climates.

IMPACT OF
CLIMATE CHANGE
IN THE
ENVIRONMENT
What specific phenomena are we
experiencing right now concerning
our climate?

What could be the possible impacts

of this phenomenon on our
environment?
•is described as a change in the average conditions
— such as temperature and rainfall — in a region
over a long period.
•Also, global climate change refers to the average
long-term changes over the entire Earth.
❑ This includes warming temperatures
and changes in precipitation, as well as
the effects of Earth’s warming, such as:

a. rising sea levels

b. shrinking mountain glaciers
c. ice melting at a faster rate than usual
in Greenland, Antartica and the Arctic
d. Changes in flower and plant blooming
times.
• The scientific discovery of climate change began in the early
19th century when ice ages and other natural changes in
paleoclimate were first suspected, and the natural
greenhouse effect was first identified.

• In the late 19th century, scientists first argued that human

emissions of greenhouse gases could change the climate.

• Many other theories of climate change were advanced,

involving forces from volcanism to solar variation
• Climate change, broadly interpreted, is a significant and lasting
change in the statistical distribution of weather patterns over
periods ranging from decades to millions of years.

• It may be a change in average weather conditions or weather

distribution around the average conditions (such as more or
fewer extreme weather events).
• Climate change is a change in the usual weather
found in a place. It could be a change in how much
rain a place usually gets in a year, or it could be a
change in a place’s usual temperature for a month
or season.
• Climate change is also a change in Earth’s
climate. It could be a change in Earth’s normal
temperature, or it could be a change in where
rain and snow usually fall on Earth.
• Humans are increasingly influencing the
climate and the Earth’s temperature by
burning fossil fuels, cutting down rainforests,
and farming livestock.

• It adds enormous amounts of greenhouse

gases to those naturally occurring in the
atmosphere, increasing the greenhouse effect
and global warming.
Some gases in the Earth’s atmosphere act a bit
like the glass in a greenhouse, trapping the
sun’s heat and stopping it from leaking back
into space.
• Many of these gases occur naturally. However, human
activity is increasing the concentrations of some of them
in the atmosphere, in particular:
● carbon dioxide (CO2)
● methane
● nitrous oxide
● fluorinated gases
 CO2 is the greenhouse gas most
produced by human activities, and
it is responsible for 64% of
human-made global warming. Its
concentration in the atmosphere is
currently 40% higher than it was
when industrialization began.
•Other greenhouse gases are
emitted in smaller quantities, but
they trap heat far more effectively
than CO2, and in some cases, are
thousands of times more potent.
Methane is responsible for 17%
of human-made global warming,
nitrous oxide for 6%.
 Causes for rising emissions
● Burning coal, oil, and gas produce carbon dioxide and
nitrous oxide.

● Cutting down forests (deforestation). Trees help to

regulate the climate by absorbing CO2 from the
atmosphere. So, when they are cut down, that
beneficial effect is lost, and the carbon stored in the
trees is released into the atmosphere, adding to the
greenhouse effect.
 Causes for rising emissions
● Increasing livestock farming. Cows and sheep
produce large amounts of methane when they
digest their food.
● Fertilizers containing nitrogen produce nitrous
oxide emissions.
● Fluorinated gases produce a powerful warming
effect, up to 23 000 times greater than CO2.
Thankfully, these are released in smaller quantities
and are being phased down by EU regulation.
• The current global average temperature for
March 2020 was 1.16ºC (2.09 ºF), higher than it
was in the late 19th century. Each of the past
three decades has been warmer than any
preceding decade since records began in 1850.

• The world’s leading climate scientists think

human activities are almost certainly the main
cause of the warming observed since the
middle of the 20th century.
•What’s the difference
between global
warming and climate
change?
 Global Warning Climate Change
Global warming refers only while climate change
to the Earth’s rising surface includes warming and the
temperature. Said another “side effects” of warming—
way, global warming is one like melting glaciers,
symptom of the much heavier rainstorms, or
larger problem of human- more frequent drought.
caused climate change.
 Global Warning
global warming these days,
they almost always mean
human-caused warming—
warming due to the rapid
increase in carbon dioxide
and other greenhouse
gases from burning coal,
instance, from carbon-storing forests
oil, and gas.
Climate Change
climate change can mean human-
caused changes or natural ones,
such as ice ages. Besides burning
fossil fuels, humans can cause
climate changes by emitting aerosol
pollution—the tiny particles that
reflect sunlight and cool the
climate— into the atmosphere or
transform the Earth’s landscape, for
to farmland
• Today’s global warming is
overwhelmingly due to the
increase in heat-trapping
gases that humans add to
the atmosphere by burning
fossil fuels.

• In fact, over the last five

decades, natural factors
(solar forcing and
volcanoes) would have led
to a slight cooling of Earth’s
surface temperature
