many of the most prominent‚ yet commonly looked over‚ indicators of anthropogenic climate change present in society today.

Forest depletion contributes more green house gas emissions than all the cars and trucks in use worldwide. Changes in forest management and agricultural practices could reduce the threat of global warming much more quickly than can technological solutions. There are a couple of solutions I believe one being no-till farming‚ a practice that

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
