While the changes to the earth\u2019s climate are nothing new, it is apparent recent effects are having a devastating impact on countless people, places, and wildlife. If you want to know what climate change really is and why it matters, then keep reading to learn more about its causes, effects, and solutions to stop it.<\/p>Starting from what is Climate change? <\/p>Climate change happens when the earth\u2019s climate system adjusts and displays new weather patterns that can last for as little as a few decades or up to millions of years. The climate is constantly changing, and unfortunately, this is a common argument made by people who don\u2019t believe that climate change is something to worry about. <\/p>Climate change has occurred for as long as the earth has existed. It happens anytime earth\u2019s climate patterns change and remain in place for a measurable amount of time. This has notably manifested itself in natural cycles of cooling and warming. Before human causes started to shift the global climate, five main factors interacted with one another as climate changes occurred. <\/p>Now that boils down to the CAUSES: <\/p>Certain gases in the atmosphere block heat from escaping. Long-lived gases that remain semi-permanently in the atmosphere and do not respond physically or chemically to changes in temperature are described as \"forcing\" climate change. Gases, such as water vapor, which respond physically or chemically to changes in temperature, are seen as \"feedbacks.\" <\/p>\u2022 Water vapor. The most abundant greenhouse gas, but importantly, it acts as a feedback to the climate. Water vapor increases as the Earth's atmosphere warms, but so does the possibility of clouds and precipitation, making these some of the most important feedback mechanisms to the greenhouse effect. <\/p>\u2022 Methane. A hydrocarbon gas produced both through natural sources and human activities, including the decomposition of wastes in landfills, agriculture, and especially rice cultivation, as well as ruminant digestion and manure management associated with domestic livestock. On a molecule-for-molecule basis, methane is a far more active greenhouse gas than carbon dioxide, but also one which is much less abundant in the atmosphere. <\/p>\u2022 Chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs). Synthetic compounds entirely of industrial origin used in a number of applications, but now largely regulated in production and release to the atmosphere by international agreement for their ability to contribute to the destruction of the ozone layer. They are also greenhouse gases. <\/p>\u2022 Nitrous oxide. A powerful greenhouse gas produced by soil cultivation practices, especially the use of commercial and organic fertilizers, fossil fuel combustion, nitric acid production, and biomass burning <\/p>\u2022 Carbon dioxide (CO2). A minor but very important component of the atmosphere, carbon dioxide is released through natural processes such as respiration and volcano eruptions and through human activities such as deforestation, land-use changes, and burning fossil fuels. Humans have increased atmospheric CO2 concentration by more than a third since the Industrial Revolution began. This is the most important long-lived \"forcing\" of climate change.\n \n <\/p>Now lets the harsh CONSEQUENCES: <\/p>\u2022 On average, Earth will become warmer. Some regions may welcome warmer temperatures, but others may not.<\/p>\u2022 Warmer conditions will probably lead to more evaporation and precipitation overall, but individual regions will vary, some becoming wetter and other dryers. <\/p>\u2022 A stronger greenhouse effect will warm the oceans and partially melt glaciers and other ice, increasing sea level. Ocean water also will expand if it warms, contributing further to sea-level rise. <\/p>\u2022 Meanwhile, some crops and other plants may respond favorably to increased atmospheric CO2, growing more vigorously and using water more efficiently. At the same time, higher temperatures and shifting climate patterns may change the areas where crops grow best and affect the makeup of the natural plant communities.\n <\/p>These were quite harsh so let\u2019s have look at the SOLUTIONS:\nWhile the effects of climate change can seem bleak, there is still hope. By taking immediate action to curb climate change, we may never see the worst consequences. Likewise, as the world adopts cleaner, more sustainable energy solutions, there may be millions of new jobs created and billions of dollars of economic benefits. Below are some practical ways you can battle climate change, including: <\/p>\u2022\tPurchase Renewable Energy Certificate for your home power needs <\/p>\u2022\tMake your home energy efficient <\/p>\u2022\tBuy carbon offsets <\/p>\u2022\tAdopt a plant-based diet <\/p>\u2022\tReduce food waste <\/p>\u2022\tRecycle <\/p>\u2022\tStop using fossil fuels <\/p>\u2022\tStop deforestation\n <\/p>The Role of Human Activity<\/p>In its Fifth Assessment Report, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, a group of 1,300 independent scientific experts from countries all over the world under the auspices of the United Nations, concluded there's a more than 95 percent probability that human activities over the past 50 years have warmed our planet.\nThe industrial activities that our modern civilization depends upon have raised atmospheric carbon dioxide levels from 280 parts per million to 412 parts per million in the last 150 years. The panel also concluded there's a better than 95 percent probability that human-produced greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide, methane, and nitrous oxide have caused much of the observed increase in Earth's temperatures over the past 50 years.\n <\/p>The industrial activities that our modern civilization depends upon have raised atmospheric carbon dioxide levels from 280 parts per million to 412 parts per million in the last 150 years.

Let\u2019s not make the Earth is the history but reality. Let us join hands together and save it little every day. Baby steps like use cloth bags instead of plastic. Let\u2019s turn off the water while shaving\/brushing. Replacing the incandescent light bulbs in your home with energy-efficient LED bulbs and also, by turning off lights and small appliances when you're not using them. Before we throw away excess food, look into food banks and charities where we can bring items we know we are not going to consume before they go bad, and give them to people in need. Most importantly Buy recycled products and then recycle them again. <\/p> <\/p>"}]
