Climate change is the most significant challenge to achieving sustainable development and threatens to drag thousands of people to severe poverty. It refers to any outstanding measures of climate lasting for an extended period of time. This includes major changes in temperature‚ precipitation or winds patterns and others that occur several days longer. Some Caribbean islands in particular are vulnerable to climate change. Rising sea levels will have a consequential and dampening effect on their economy

concerning topic of Climate Change. Climate change is a serious global challenge. Temperature increases‚ which many scientists attribute to human activity‚ are likely to bring widespread and unpredictable changes around the world. Climate change is the gradual increase of the temperature of earth’s atmosphere and oceans. It occurs when greenhouse gases‚ such as carbon dioxide‚ nitrous oxide and methane trap heat inside the earth’s atmosphere. Australia is vulnerable to climate change. We occupy the driest

potential impacts of climate change on Queensland come under three main factors‚ health‚ environment and economics. HEALTH Effects such as the Mosquito-borne dengue fever and increasing heatwaves pose a threat to Queensland under the health factor. The future distribution of mosquito’s carrying dengue fever will be determined by climate change‚ it is expected that the disease will expand further south extending to New South Wales and even the Northern Territory. Climate change will also impact the
