Landforms are natural features on Earth's surface shaped by geological processes, including mountains, plateaus, and valleys, which influence climate, vegetation, and human activities. Climate is the long-term weather pattern of a region, affected by factors like latitude and altitude, and has significant impacts on agriculture, clothing, and housing. Climate change, driven by human activities, poses a global threat with consequences such as rising temperatures and unpredictable weather.

🌍 Landforms

Landforms are natural features found on the Earth’s surface and are shaped by various
geological processes over time. They include mountains, plateaus, plains, hills,
valleys, deserts, and coastal features. These are formed by internal forces like
volcanic activity and tectonic movements, as well as external forces such as
weathering, erosion, and deposition. For instance, mountains like the Himalayas were
formed due to the collision of tectonic plates, while river valleys are carved over time
by the erosive action of flowing water. Plateaus are elevated flatlands, often formed
by volcanic activity or uplift. Landforms influence climate, vegetation, human
settlement, and economic activities. For example, fertile plains support agriculture,
while mountainous regions may be sparsely populated due to difficult terrain.
Understanding landforms is crucial for managing natural resources and planning
infrastructure.

☀️Climate

Climate refers to the long-term pattern of weather conditions in a particular region,


typically measured over 30 years or more. It includes elements such as temperature,
precipitation, humidity, wind, and atmospheric pressure. The Earth's climate varies
from region to region, giving rise to different climatic zones such as tropical,
temperate, arid, and polar. Factors influencing climate include latitude, altitude, ocean
currents, distance from the sea, and wind patterns. For example, areas near the equator
typically experience hot and wet climates, while polar regions remain cold throughout
the year. Climate has a direct impact on the natural vegetation, wildlife, and human
activities in a region. It affects what crops can be grown, the kind of clothing people
wear, and even the type of houses they build. In recent decades, climate change due to
human activities, such as greenhouse gas emissions, has become a major global
concern, leading to rising temperatures, melting glaciers, and unpredictable weather
patterns.
