INTRODUCTION

Global warming is a growing concern of scientists and researchers who


believe that it is a serious problem for our planet.The concerns and research
have also been questioned and have been called myths.Millions of people find
themselves affected by these weather pattern changes and are concerned for
their futures.Activist on both sides of the argument are very passionate and
not afraid to attack each other in every way they can.There are many
questions that are still not answered.However,we continue to see drastic
weather changes on earth.

Problem statement

Human health is affected by alterations to the environment.

3
RESEARCH OBJECTIVE

❖ Climate change is affecting human health.

4
Methodology

A questionnaire conducted on how the changing of climate affects human health.The


questionnaire will be created by google forms and sent via whatsapp.The researcher chose
this questionnaire because of its accuracy to collect relevant data.
The respondent will be asked necessary information about climate change and global
warming towards their health.
Fifteen persons will be questioned ranging from ages 14-17 years. The main limitation is
that not everyone has access to the internet and will not respond to the survey.
The survey data will be analyzed.The impact of changing climate on human health will be
determined by the number of people who are affected and over the years they're
experiencing it.

PRESENTATION OF DATA

ADDRESS;PRICKLY POLE DISTRICT

Gender

Data 1

Pie chart showing how ozone hole causing climate change affect health

6
Data 2

Pie chart showing how long residents have been experiencing global warming

7
Analysis and Interpretation of Data
In the environment 50% of people agreed that the changing of climate is caused
by the ozone hole while 50% disagreed.The main effect of human health is caused
by climate changing with a 100% agreement.75% of people have been experiencing
global warming for five years while 25% had experienced over 10 years.Four
residents also responded that that global warming can be prevented by:Recycling
and stop the dumping of garbage,least greenhouse gasses,improvements to energy
efficiency and vehicle fuel economy and stop with the burning of garbage and the
practice of reforestation.The respondents also acknowledged that there are some
diseases caused by global warming which may include
malaria,dengue,eczema,chikungunya,west nile virus etc.
The changing climate developed from global warming has a bad impact on
human’s health,infrastructure,and transportation systems.The researcher’s results
show that too much greenhouse gasses and improper disposal are affecting
residents.Global warming also affects societies through different social,cultural,and
natural resources according to Data 2.

Conclusion

After doing this research it was found that the changing of climate caused by global
warming has a bad impact on human health.Natural systems around the world are
being affected by regional climate changes ,particularly temperature increases
which are very likely to be the result of anthropogenic emissions of greenhouse
gasses.

9
Recommendation

Changing agricultural practices and energy efficiency are ways to mitigate global
warming.Use the ten actions to help tackle climate change so we can help in the
decreasing of global warming.

10
Reflection

The researcher was not mindful that human activities are causing a groundbreaking
period of climatic and deadly incidents such as droughts,storms etc.Global
Warming is a major crisis that is being discussed all around the world.These
changes are damaging the environment and agricultural population,threatening
wild species with extinction and more.several miner who burned coal and extract
other minerals from the earth is also causing air pollution.However,the researcher
also discovered that mining is the main contributor to anthropogenic climate
change.Addressing global warming will help lessen the harm to ecosystems that
now provide us with multiple benefits.
