• Climate change is one of the biggest crisis
humanity faces.

• Climate change means the change in the


climatic activities & in atmospheric levels.
• Change of climate that is attributed directly or indirectly to
human activity, altering the composition of the global
atmosphere.
CAUSES OF CLIMATE CHANGE
• Changes in solar energy and slow changes in orbit of Earth.

• Changes in ocean circulation.

• Human activities – burning fossil fuels, deforestation, building

developments in cities.

• Greenhouse gases – excess carbon dioxide from burning fuels and

clearing forest.

• Global warming
IMPACTS OF CLIMATE CHANGES

• Intense drought, storm


• Rising sea levels, melting glaciers
• Natural calamities – earthquake, cyclones, flood
• Hazardous diseases – cancer from radiations, incurable allergies.
• Wildfires
• Acid rain
Acid rain is caused by emissions of sulfur dioxide and nitrogen
oxide, which react with the water molecules in the atmosphere to produce
acids.
Some Effects of Climate Change
• An average increase in Earth’s temperature during the last century
• Melting of polar ice—polar bears and other animals are drowning
• Migrating birds are forced to change their time and place of migration
• Melting of glaciers will lead to higher sea level, which will cause floods
and put many low-elevation regions at risk of disappearing under water
• Longer summers can disrupt animal habitation
• New and widespread diseases because of warm climate
• Damaged crops due to sudden climate change and floods
• Average precipitation increase around the world
• Droughts, heat waves, extreme winters and storms, hurricanes,
typhoons
• More wildfires
• Helps people and nature adapt to a changing climate

• Advances policies to fight climate change- ( COP Paris by UNFCCC )

• Combats deforestation

• Introduce automobiles with new fuel system which reduces 90% pollution

• Engages with businesses to reduce carbon emissions

• Make others aware about the problem

• Invest in renewable energies

• Protecting forests
