Due to the global nature of climate change, many international communities have begun to work together to change their practices and reduce their carbon emissions. Many also make ongoing efforts to recycle, decrease carbon emissions, and preserve natural habitats. Scientists continue to study climate change and possible solutions to its causes. Extreme heat as an effect of climate change will render currently inhabited regions unlivable for humans.ĭespite the inevitability of some effects of climate change, there are many people who are working to ameliorate or combat the damage. The change in Earth’s temperature has also created severe weather events (like hurricanes and superstorms ) and seasonal shifts that disrupt crop cycles. Many animal populations are being affected by climate change, either by the depletion of their natural habitats or sensitivity to the temperature/chemical change in their environments.
As glaciers melt from rising temperatures, sea levels across the world are rising, endangering coastal communities. The effects of climate change are numerous and varied, and will drastically change the conditions of human civilization over the next century or so. The result of these carbon emissions is climate change. The clearing of land for agricultural and urban development has also depleted plant life (plants reduce carbon dioxide concentrations) and produced more carbon emissions. In particular, the uses of vehicles like cars and planes have caused carbon emissions to skyrocket. Inventions like the steam engine, factory machines, and other mechanical products have largely been powered by fossil fuels over the last couple hundred years.
Starting in the Industrial Revolution and continuing today, the burning of fossil fuels (oil, natural gas, and coal) increased at a very high rate.
