▎ The Impact of Climate Change on Global Ecosystems
Climate change is one of the most pressing issues of our time, affecting both natural and human
systems. Its key drivers include greenhouse gas emissions from fossil fuels, deforestation, and
industrial processes.
Rising temperatures lead to unpredictable weather patterns, affecting precipitation and contributing to
extreme weather events. Ecosystems are disrupted as plant and animal species struggle to adapt,
resulting in habitat loss and degradation.
Biodiversity is severely threatened, with many species facing extinction. This loss impacts food chains
and overall ecosystem stability. Human communities are also affected; climate refugees and food
security challenges arise from these environmental changes.
To combat these issues, we must adopt mitigation strategies such as renewable energy sources and
sustainable agricultural practices, along with policies that support environmental protection.
