Understanding Climate Change:

Climate change is one of the most urgent and complex challenges facing humanity in the 21st century. It has become a central issue on the global agenda due to its significant impacts on ecosystems, biodiversity, the economy, and human health. This report aims to provide an overview of the main aspects related to climate change, including its causes, impacts, and potential solutions.


Climate change is primarily caused by the increase in concentrations of greenhouse gases (GHGs) in the atmosphere, especially carbon dioxide (CO2), methane (CH4), and nitrous oxide (N2O). These gases trap heat in the Earth's atmosphere, leading to a warming effect known as the greenhouse effect. Human activities such as the burning of fossil fuels, deforestation, industrial processes, and agricultural practices are the main drivers behind the increase in GHG emissions.


These impacts include rising global temperatures, more frequent and severe weather events such as hurricanes, droughts, floods, and heatwaves, as well as melting polar ice caps and rising sea levels. These changes disrupt ecosystems, threaten food and water security, increase the risk of natural disasters, and exacerbate poverty and inequality, particularly in vulnerable communities.


SOLUTIONS:


1. Transition to renewable energy sources.

2. Implement carbon pricing mechanisms.

3. Promote energy efficiency in industries and households.

4. Protect and restore forests and other natural carbon sinks.

5. Invest in sustainable transportation infrastructure.

    Hello, this is mentor Seeun.
    Greenhouse gas emissions are the main cause of climaate change, as you mentioned.
    The solutions you mentioned are all quite effective, and some have already been implemented around the world. Which one do you think is the most important?
    Thank you for your report.
