ABOUT CLIMATE CHANGE 1. What is climate change? Climate change is a long-term shift in the climate of a s pecific location‚ region or planet. The shift is measured by changes in features associated with average weather‚ such as temperature‚ wind patterns and pr ecipitation. What most peo ple don’t know is that a change in the variability of climate is also considered climate change‚ even if average weather conditions remain the same. Climate change occurs when the climate of a

When looking at the daily average for temperature I found it interesting that on average only 5 months of the year are below zero

1. Natural causes of climate change within the model are livestock (cows) producing methane gas. Human-made causes that can be seen are deforestation for crops‚ homes‚ and businesses. Pollution from cars and planes realeases CO2 into the air and the use of electricty to run the homes and businesses creates greenhouse gases. From 1775 till today‚ cars and planes have been created and contribute to green house gas production. The population has increase and more crops and homes have been built. Oil

Global Climate Change and its Effects A simple way to describe Global warming would be to say that it refers to an average increase in the Earth ’s temperature and this increase may cause changes in climate. As the Earth warms up it may lead to significant rise in sea levels‚ chaotic weather patterns‚ and catastrophic droughts. When we talk about the issue of climate change‚ what we are really concerned about is the global warming caused by human activities. In my opinion‚ Global warming is already
