Natural Causes of Climate Change The earth’s climate is influenced and changed through natural causes like volcanic eruptions‚ ocean current‚ the earth’s orbital changes and solar variations. Volcanic Eruptions When a volcano erupts it throws out large volumes of sulphur dioxide (SO2)‚ water vapour‚ dust‚ and ash into the atmosphere. Large volumes of gases and ash can influence climatic patterns for years by increasing planetary reflectivity causing atmospheric cooling. Tiny particles called aerosols

When fossil fuels are burned‚ greenhouse gases are released into the atmosphere thickening the air‚ trapping heat and other pollutants increasing the chances for climate change thru human induced activities
