Q#1 What are the causes and effects of climate change?

Ans: Human activities, such as burning fossil fuels and destroying rainforests, have an
increasing influence on the climate and the Earth's temperature.

Q:2 What are two main causes of climate?

Ans: The leading cause of climate change is human activity and the release of greenhouse
gases.

Q:3 What are the effects of the climate change?

Effects of Climate Change on Weather

As global temperatures climb, widespread shifts in weather systems occur, making events like
droughts, hurricanes, and floods more intense and unpredictable.

Q:4 What are the natural causes of climate change?

Natural causes of climate change

The earth has gone through warming and cooling phases in the past, long before humans were
around. Forces that can contribute to climate change include the sun's intensity, volcanic
eruptions, and changes in naturally occurring greenhouse gas concentrations.

Q:5 What factors affect climate?

The temperature characteristics of a region are influenced by natural factors such as latitude,
elevation and the presence of ocean currents.

Q:6 What is climate change examples?

“Climate change” encompasses global warming, but refers to the broader range of changes that
are happening to our planet, including rising sea levels; shrinking mountain glaciers;
accelerating ice melt in Greenland, Antarctica and the Arctic; and shifts in flower/plant blooming
times.

Q:7 What are 7 effects of climate change?

Ans: Climate change is the single biggest health threat facing humanity. Climate impacts are
already harming health, through air pollution, disease, extreme weather events, forced
displacement, pressures on mental health, and increased hunger and poor nutrition in places
where people cannot grow or find sufficient food.

Q:8 Who is affected by climate change?

Ans: All Americans face possible health impacts from climate change. However, certain groups
are at more risk than others due to both climate and non-climate factors. For example, people
living on floodplains, coastlines, or in areas prone to severe storms are more vulnerable to
extreme weather.

Q:9 What stops climate change?

Ans: Cut emissions

While climate change cannot be stopped, it can be slowed. To avoid the worst consequences of
climate change, we'll need to reach “net zero” carbon emissions by 2050 or sooner. Net zero
means that, on balance, no more carbon is dumped into the atmosphere than is taken out.

Q:10 What are the factors affecting the climate of Pakistan?

Ans: The monsoon and the Western Disturbance are the two main factors which alter the
weather over Pakistan;

Q:11 When did climate change start?

Ans: Scientists generally regard the later part of the 19th century.

Q:12 What is the difference between global warming and climate change?

Ans: “Global warming” refers to the rise in global temperatures due mainly to the increasing
concentrations of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. “Climate change” refers to the
increasing changes in the measures of climate over a long period of time – including
precipitation, temperature, and wind patterns.

Q:13 What is the major cause of climate change in Pakistan?

Ans: Pakistan include an inadequate sewage system, air pollution from industrial waste, and
deforestation.

Q:14 Why Pakistan is most affected by climate change?

Ans: Pakistan is located at a place on the globe which bears the brunt of two major weather
systems. One can cause high temperatures and drought, like the heatwave in March, and the
other brings monsoon rains.

Q:15 What are the 4 climate zones of Pakistan?

Ans: The climate of Pakistan is divided into four main climatic regions or zones i.e. Highland
Climate, Low land Climate, Desert/Arid Climate, Coastal/Maritime Climate.

Q:16 How much is Pakistan responsible for climate change?

Ans: Pakistan is only responsible for 0.3 percent of global emissions.

Q:18 What is zero carbon emission?

Ans: Zero carbon means that no carbon emissions are being produced
from a product or service (for example, a wind farm generating
electricity, or a battery deploying electricity).
Q:19 What is positive carbon emission?
Ans: Carbonpositive describes most business as usual situations. It
means a business entity produces an amount of carbon emissions
that is more than zero.
Q:20 What is negative carbon emission?
Ans: Carbon dioxide removal, also known as carbon removal, greenhouse gas removal or negative
emissions, is a process in which carbon dioxide gas is removed from the atmosphere by deliberate
human activities and durably stored in geological, terrestrial, or ocean reservoirs, or in products.
