Climate Change refers to significant and lasting changes in the Earth’s climate patterns, primarily attributed to human activities such as the burning of fossil fuels, deforestation, and industrial processes. It encompasses both natural variations in climate as well as human-induced changes, particularly the increase in greenhouse gas emissions, which trap heat in the atmosphere. This phenomenon leads to rising global temperatures, altered weather patterns, melting ice caps, rising sea levels, and increased frequency of extreme weather events. Climate change poses various challenges to ecosystems, biodiversity, and human societies, impacting agriculture, water resources, health, and infrastructure. Addressing climate change involves international cooperation, policy-making, and sustainable practices aimed at reducing greenhouse gas emissions and enhancing resilience to its effects.
