Global Climate Change and Related Phenomena Group 4 presentation  INTRODUCTION IN GLOBAL CLIMATE CHANGE Global climate change, also known as global warming, refers to the long-term changes in the Earth's climate, including temperature, precipitation, and wind patterns, among others, that are largely attributed to human activities such as burning fossil fuels, deforestation, and agriculture. These activities have resulted in an increase in the concentration of greenhouse gases, such as carbon dioxide, methane, and nitrous oxide, in the Earth's atmosphere, which trap heat from the sun and cause the Earth's temperature to rise. This rise in temperature has a wide range of effects, including melting glaciers and sea ice, rising sea levels, more frequent and severe weather events, and changes in ecosystems and biodiversity. Climate change is considered one of the most significant environmental challenges facing the planet, and efforts to mitigate and adapt  WHAT IS CLIMATE CHANGE With only the late 1980s and later seeing the emergence of climate change as a significant policy concern, it is a recent addition to the international political and environmental agenda. One of many such greenhouse gases in the atmosphere is carbon dioxide (CO2), methane, nitrous oxide, and among other gases. The most significant greenhouse gas, however, that is impacted by human activity is carbon dioxide. It is produced by numerous processes. Since the Industrial Revolution, when our consumption of fossil fuels skyrocketed, human activity-related carbon dioxide emissions have increased enough to significantly disrupt the natural carbon cycle. Before the Industrial Revolution, in 1750, there were around 280 parts per million by volume (ppmv) of carbon dioxide in Actions to Take Against Climate Change A. At Work B. On the Road C.

The main greenhouse gases are carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4), nitrous oxide (N2O), and fluorinated gases. According to James Hansen of the Goddard Institute for Space Studies of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration, the Earth is warming up. The rise of atmospheric carbon dioxide and other chemicals, which endanger the stability of the global climate, are what trigger the greenhouse effect. The manufacture of some synthetic compounds, burning of fossil fuels, and deforestation all produce large amounts of heat that trap gases in the atmosphere.  Greenhouse Eff ect The "greenhouse effect," which is the term for the increase in global temperature caused by trapping heat near the planet's surface. The primary culprit in the global warming catastrophe is carbon dioxide (CO2). Carbon dioxide acts as a one-way filter, allowing solar energy to pass through while absorbing longer-wavelength radiation from the earth and forming a greenhouse effect around the globe. Human activities have caused the greenhouse shield to become overly thick. Since the beginning of the industrial revolution, the thickness has been happening gradually. At that time (about 1700), there were 280 ppm (parts per million) of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, and by the end of 1987, there were 345 ppm. By 2070, it's expected to be 560 ppm Greenhouse Gases The main contributor to the greenhouse effect (at 50%) is carbon dioxide. Chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs) provide 15%, methane produced during flooded rice farming and from leaking natural gas wells accounts for 20%, nitrogen oxide and ground-level ozone contribute 10% and 5%, respectively.

The earth's surface is heated by sunlight, but some gases in the atmosphere function like the glass of a greenhouse, retaining the heat as it radiates back into the atmosphere. Earth's temperature rises as a result of the atmospheric buildup of greenhouse gases. Climate change, another name for this process, is changing the climate rapidly.  CAUSES OF GLOBAL WARMING The phenomenon of global warming is remarkably new. Does it really get any hotter? Take into account the following elements that contribute to the production of greenhouse gases that cause global warming. 1. Increasing Population Growth 2. Gases, smoke, and exhaust fumes 3. Cattles, even herbivorous animals, fart. 4. Marsh, swamp, and rice paddy field gases. 5. Termite Bites that Produce Methane Gas EFFECTS OF GLOBAL WARMING 1. Rising Temperatures 2. Melting Ice and Sea Levels 3. Extreme Weather Events 4. Ocea4. Ocean Acidification n Acidification 5. Habitat Loss ARRANGEMENTS FOR GLOBAL WARMING Wallace S. Broecker, a geochemistry professor at Columbia University and an authority on global warming, thinks that these changes are unavoidable and uncontrollable and that everyone should be doing everything they can to slow them down. Despite these possibilities, global warming is a given. An individual can contribute in a variety of ways to delay its arrival. Think about the following: ARRANGEMENTS FOR GLOBAL WARMING 1. Promotion of family planning to reduce population growth. 2. Educating people on reforestation programs by initiating “eco-tourism” trips to various main forests. 3. Car owners have to switch to natural gas to help cut down nitrous oxide emission. 4. Encouraging auto owners to seek out service stations equipped with recycling equipment that cleanses and reuses the car air conditioner’s Freon, which is 100% CFC in the atmosphere, and provides shade which cuts down the demand for electricity for air conditioners.
