Climate change is a change in the pattern of weather, and related changes in oceans, land surfaces and ice sheets, occurring over time scales of decades or longer. Weather is the state of the atmosphere, its temperature, humidity, wind, rainfall and so on—over hours to weeks.

• rising maximum temperatures.
• rising minimum temperatures.
• rising sea levels.
• higher ocean temperatures.
• an increase in heavy precipitation (heavy rain and hail)
• shrinking glaciers.
• thawing permafrost.

• Climate change is having serious impacts on the world’s water systems through more flooding and droughts. Warmer air can hold a higher water content, which makes rainfall patterns more extreme. Rivers and lakes supply drinking water for people and animals and are a vital resource for farming and industry.

• Speak up! 
• Power your home with renewable energy. 
• Weatherize, weatherize, weatherize. 
• Invest in energy-efficient appliances. 
• Reduce water waste. 
• Actually eat the food you buy and make less of it meat. 
• Buy better bulbs.
• Pull the plug(s).

• Fact 1: Most of the increase in global temperatures since 1950 has been caused by human activity.
• Fact 2: The average temperature of the Earth is determined by the greenhouse effect. 
• Fact 3: Global temperatures have increased by about 1° Celsius in the past century.

Humans are increasingly influencing the climate and the earth’s temperature by burning fossil fuels, cutting down rainforests and farming livestock. This adds enormous amounts of greenhouse gases to those naturally occurring in the atmosphere, increasing the greenhouse effect and global warming.

Some changes have bad effect like pollution and destruction of habitat and lose of lives. Improper disposal of garbage, harmful chemicals and human waste can cause changes. It can pollute air, land and water.

These have been caused by many natural factors, including changes in the sun, emissions from volcanoes, variations in Earth’s orbit and levels of carbon dioxide.

Global temperature rise. The planet was warmer by 1.2 degrees Celsius from January to October in 2020 than the pre-industrial average measured between 1850 and 1900, according to the Nature report. This is the second-warmest recorded when compared to similar periods in historical data.
