INTRODUCTION Climate change is a significant and lasting change in the statistical distribution of weather patterns over periods ranging from decades to millions of years. It may be a change in average weather conditions or the distribution of events around that average (e.g.‚ more or fewer extreme weather events). Climate change may be limited to a specific region or may occur across the whole Earth. The most general definition of climate change is a change in the statistical properties of

There is half of the world ’s population in urban areas and the proportion will increase rapidly in future years. Climate change is a mean state of the climate or in its variability‚ continue for a long period

The Effects of Human Activity on Climate Climate is a natural activity that can be defined as the weather conditions prevailing in an area in general over a long period of time (which can include temperature‚ air pressure‚ humidity‚ precipitation‚ sunshine‚ cloudiness‚ and winds) (“Climate”). The climate has been a part of our environment long before humans came to study it‚ and really took it into consideration. Now through the many negative environmental actions created by humans through beneficial
