because of climate change” Before I start lets define first what was climate change is. Climate change or also known as Global Warming‚ refers to the rise in average temperatures on earth. This is due to primarily human use of fossil fuels‚ which releases carbon dioxide and greenhouse gases into the atmosphere‚ which can have a range of effects on ecosystems‚ including rising sea levels‚ severe weather events‚ and droughts that render landscapes more susceptible to wildfires. Isn’t it climate change

examining the effects of climate change (Lawson et al. 2015; Walther et al. 2015). The role of environmental variance is challenging traditional theoretical approaches supplanting the notion of absolute climate changes. In a world with fluctuating climates‚ two main questions have emerged with urgency: first‚ how do ecologic assemblages respond to changes in environmental variance; and second‚ how does environmental variance affect ecologic assemblages’ responses to changes in a mean condition (Lawson

however climate change is still something that concerns some scientists‚ citizens‚ and policymakers. As such‚ the need for further progress is necessary. In order to make such progress policymakers may need to develop air quality and climate change policies through an integrative approach. Doing this‚ however‚ does not come without political‚ social‚ and scientific obstacles. Although there are obstacles to recognizing integrative approaches for policymaking‚ air quality and climate change may be

Anthropologic climate change in Chile and Argentina has been a vital problem since the turn of the 19th century. With a steady rise in temperature‚ climate change has had a significant effect on this region’s culture‚ economy‚ and social structure. Without the necessary precautions‚ this effect will only continue to increase at an exponential rate‚ causing further irreparable damage and degradation (Barros‚ 2014). There are many causes of anthropologic climate change in Chile and Argentina‚ but perhaps

In Northern Africa and the Middle East‚ where political unrest has caused violent civil wars and riots‚ climate change has deteriorated people’s lifestyles and drastically changed the weather. According to Christopher Schär‚ a rise in temperature and humidity around the Persian Gulf will create extreme conditions that are intolerable to humans within the next century. Statistically‚ with the temperature rise of 0 .65°C for the past century‚ nearly 200 million people are living in regions that are
