climate change
What are 5 effects of climate change?
More frequent and intense drought, storms, heat waves, rising sea levels, melting glaciers and warming oceans can directly harm animals, destroy the places they live, and wreak havoc on people's livelihoods and communities.
As climate change worsens, dangerous weather events are becoming more frequent or severe.What are the 5 causes of climate change?
Causes of Climate Change
Generating power.
Generating electricity and heat by burning fossil fuels causes a large chunk of global emissions. Manufacturing goods. Cutting down forests. Using transportation. Producing food. Powering buildings. Consuming too much.Climate change will likely increase the frequency and strength of extreme events (such as floods, droughts, and storms) that threaten human health and safety.
Climate changes may expose more people to diseases.
Some groups of people (e.g., the very young and the very old) are especially vulnerable to health impacts.
What exactly 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.
