CLIMATE CHANGE - A CONCERN FOR ALL

One of the biggest problems that the whole world is facing right now is Climate Change. It has affected everything and everyone from Nature to Plants Animals, Natural, and Man-Made Things, and Living things most importantly. Although this Climate Change is created by us, i.e., Human Beings, due to the activities to do and we take climate change for granted, we take it so lightly and do not know its consequences. 

Climate Change includes both Global Warming driven by human emissions of greenhouse gases and resulting in large-scale shifts in weather patterns. In simple words, it means a change in temperature and rainfall.

A report by NASA stated that Earth's surface is warming and many of the warmest years on record have happened in the past 20 years. 

Human Activity is the main cause of climate change. The way we do the activities, we never look at the factors that can affect other things by what we do. 

Increasing pollution and global warming are the major cause of climatic change which human beings have evolved. It has eventually increased so much that we cannot stop it easily. To stop this, we need to take many brave steps and be aware of everything around us. Other factors that cause climatic change and increase in the Earth's temperature are listed below:-

       ~ Burning of fossil fuels

       ~ Cutting down rainforests

       ~ Release of greenhouse gases produced through human activity 

       ~ Depletion of quality of air

       ~ Ozone layer depletion and so on.

Global Warming is the major cause of climate change. Now, what global warming is? Global warming is the long-term heating of Earth’s climate system observed since the pre-industrial period (between 1850 and 1900) due to human activities, primarily fossil fuel burning, which increases heat-trapping greenhouse gas levels in Earth’s atmosphere. The term is frequently used interchangeably with the term climate change, though the latter refers to both human- and naturally produced warming and its effects on our planet. It is most commonly measured as the average increase in Earth’s global surface temperature.

Climatic conditions like changes in temperature and rainfall also may influence the transmission pattern of many diseases, such as water-related or water-borne diseases such as diarrhea, and vector-borne infections such as malaria. Also, climate change may affect the patterns of food production, which in turn can have health impacts.

Climatic changes also affect living organisms' daily lives, whether human beings, animals, flora, and fauna. It affects the farmer when there is heavy rain or no rain, animals have to migrate if it is raining, and many die due to the temperature rise and so on.

Everything has its causes, effects, and solutions. So here are some solutions to reverse climate change- Refrigerant Management: which means refrigerators, air conditioners contain chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) and hydrochlorofluorocarbons (HCFCs) which were the key culprits in depleting the Ozone layer; Wind Turbines: Fossil fuels sidelined zero-emission wind energy during the mid-twentieth century.
