What is climate change?
• Climate change refers to long-term shifts in temperatures and weather patterns. Such shifts
can be natural, due to changes in the sun’s activity or large volcanic eruptions. But since
the 1800s, human activities have been the main driver of climate change, primarily due to
the burning of fossil fuels like coal, oil and gas.
• Burning fossil fuels generates greenhouse gas emissions that act like a blanket wrapped
around the Earth, trapping the sun’s heat and raising temperatures.
• The main greenhouse gases that are causing climate change include carbon dioxide and
methane. These come from using gasoline for driving a car or coal for heating a building,
for example. Clearing land and cutting down forests can also release carbon dioxide.
Agriculture, oil and gas operations are major sources of methane emissions. Energy,
industry, transport, buildings, agriculture and land use are among the main sectors causing
CAUSES:
The effect of climate change
• Sea level increase • Drought • Hot tempature
When the ice are Drought will give effect to This is causes by the
melting,it will cause the the water supply to some greenhouse effect.It can
sea level increase and country,it also will affect the give effect to some of our
sink some of the small food to grow such as daily activities also it may
island or lowlands vegetables because the make people sick from
lands too dry heat stroke
Solution to climate change
• Renewable energy
i. Using renewable energy can help to reduce the burning of fossil fuels
which can help in reduce the CO2 release.
ii. Examples of the renewable energy:
• Wind energy • Solar energy • Hydro energy
Solution to climate change
• Restoring forests
i. Reforestation can help to fight the global
climate change by removing huge
amounts of carbon dioxide and also
protect the biodiversity
