CLIMATE CHANGE

Climate change means the earth’s


getting warmer because people are
doing things like burning coal and oil.
This makes the weather go a bit crazy,
with hotter temperatures, stronger
storms and ice melting . It’s big
problem that we need to fix by using
cleaner energy and taking care of the
planet.

Causes of climate chnage


o Greenhouse Gas Emissions
o The burning of fossil fuels such as coal, oil, and natural
gas releases large amounts of carbon dioxide (CO2) into
the atmosphere. CO2 is a greenhouse gas that traps heat
and contributes to global warming.
o Other greenhouse gases, such as methane (CH4) and
nitrous oxide (N2O), are also released through
agricultural and industrial activities.
4

Deforestation:Trees absorb CO2 from the


atmosphere through photosynthesis.
Deforestation, especially in tropical rainforests,
reduces the Earth's capacity to absorb CO2 and
contributes to increased greenhouse gas
concentrations.

Industrial Activities :Industrial processes, such as


cement production and chemical manufacturing,
release greenhouse gases and other pollutants into
the atmosphere.
5

Effects of climate change


o Rising Temperatures :Global average
temperatures have increased by 1 degree
Celsius since pre-industrial times.

o Heatwaves and heat-related illnesses have


become more frequent and severe.

o Extreme Weather :Increased frequency and


intensity of hurricanes, cyclones, and
typhoons.
6

More frequent and severe droughts, floods, and


wildfires.

Sea Level Rise :Melting glaciers and ice caps


contribute to rising sea levels

Coastal areas are at risk of flooding and erosion.

Threat to marine ecosystems and coastal


communities.
7

Solutions to climate change


o Renewable Energy :Transitioning to renewable
energy sources, such as solar and wind power,
reduces greenhouse gas emissions.

o Investing in renewable energy infrastructure


creates jobs and stimulates economic growth.
8

Energy Efficiency :Improving energy efficiency


in buildings, transportation, and industrial
processes reduces energy consumption and lowers
emissions.

Energy-efficient technologies and practices can


save businesses and households money on energy
bills.
9

Sustainable Agriculture :Implementing


sustainable farming practices, such as organic
farming and agroforestry, helps reduce
deforestation and soil degradation.

Promoting regenerative agriculture practices can


sequester carbon and improve soil health.
