SzSSThe document discusses several effects of global warming including the reduction of sea ice and receding glaciers which will detrimentally impact many animals. Within 20-30 years, melting Himalayan glaciers will increase flooding in Asia and affect over 1 billion people's fresh water supply. Droughts and increased desertification from global warming will likely cause mass migration, malnutrition, war over resources and diminished crop growth. Additionally, deforestation has already destroyed over 80% of the world's natural forests, with up to 90% of West Africa's coastal rainforests disappearing since 1900.

Desertification Group 3
Desertification is the process of desert expansion caused by climate change and human activities like deforestation and inadequate farming methods. It leads to a reduction in agricultural land and increases soil erosion, salinity, dust storms and carbon dioxide emissions while destroying ecosystems. Countries try to reduce desertification through practices like prohibiting deforestation, afforestation, irrigation, and planting vegetation.
Turn down the heat fp2
Climate change is now accepted among scientists as human activities like carbon emissions from fossil fuel combustion, agriculture, and deforestation are major contributors to global warming. These factors have led to extreme events including increased flooding, drought, and rising sea levels.
Drought
Drought is an extended period of dry weather leading to extreme dryness and a shortfall in water supply. It develops slowly as a creeping hazard and is characterized by moisture levels below normal for the affected area. Drought can be defined in three main ways: meteorological drought related to rainfall amounts, hydrological drought determined by water levels, and agricultural drought related to water availability for crops. The impacts of drought are exacerbated by factors like overuse of land and rapid population growth, and it can cause secondary hazards such as wildfires, disease, and famine.
Nss Global Warming
Global warming is occurring due to the greenhouse effect trapping heat from fossil fuels, deforestation, and farming, causing average temperatures to rise since the mid-20th century. This is melting glaciers and raising sea levels while bringing more extreme weather, threatening species and agriculture. Individual actions like using low-carbon appliances, CFL bulbs, public transport, planting trees, and social change can help raise awareness and reduce the impacts of global warming.
Climate Change G-12 (ICT)
Climate change refers to changes in average weather patterns such as temperature, wind, and precipitation over extended periods of time. Climate change has occurred naturally in the past due to factors like changes in the Earth's orbit and sun's energy output, as well as volcanic eruptions. However, the current climate change is also influenced by human activities that have increased greenhouse gas emissions such as the burning of fossil fuels, deforestation, and industrial processes. If unmitigated, climate change will have widespread effects on systems like weather, ecosystems, agriculture, and sea level rise.
2 global warming
The document discusses the causes and effects of global warming. It notes that human activities like deforestation, industrialization, and traffic emissions increase greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. Some effects of global warming mentioned include coral bleaching and extinction, as well as increased public health threats. The Kyoto Protocol is summarized as an international agreement to reduce carbon emissions that came into force in 2005, though some major countries have not ratified it.
Global warming
Global warming is caused by increased carbon dioxide from human sources trapping heat like a greenhouse. Scientists observe melting ice caps and glaciers, which raises sea levels and could flood coastal areas. Rising temperatures are also expected to affect ecosystems, agriculture, and human health. Two areas that show impacts of warming are the decline of Adelie penguin populations as their sea ice habitat shrinks, and increased coral bleaching events destroying reefs as ocean temperatures rise. The rapid warming of the last 150 years is unprecedented and linked to increased fossil fuel usage. Urgent action is needed to reduce carbon dioxide emissions to slow global warming impacts.
Chemistry
The document discusses the causes and effects of global warming. It outlines both natural causes such as the greenhouse effect, deforestation, and ozone depletion, as well as anthropogenic causes like industrialization, mining, and rapid population growth. Some of the effects of global warming mentioned are rising temperatures, increasing sea levels, and shortages of cereal crops in tropical regions. The document also provides recommendations for reducing global warming such as planting trees, driving less, using energy saving light bulbs, and recycling paper.

Climate change and its effects on marine life ppt.
Climate change is caused by an increase in carbon dioxide that warms the atmosphere and affects weather patterns over long periods of time. This warming climate has negatively impacted Arctic marine species like seals, polar bears, and right whales by reducing sea ice habitat for seals and polar bears and decreasing the key food source of right whales. Individual actions like using energy efficient appliances, insulating homes, and taking public transportation can help address climate change.
Drought Ap
The document discusses drought, including what causes drought, how it affects more economically developed countries (MEDC's) and less economically developed countries (LEDC's), and ways to control and reduce the effects of drought. It focuses on drought in the Sahel region of Africa as a case study, noting that drought is caused by factors like the position of the Intertropical Convergence Zone (ITCZ) not moving far enough north, bringing less rain. Human activities like desertification from overcultivation and overgrazing have also exacerbated drought in the Sahel. The document recommends various solutions for MEDC's and LEDC's to control drought such as building dams, introducing drought-resistant crops, afforestation
Nurcan Namlıoğlu global warming
Global warming is an increase in the average temperature of the Earth's atmosphere and oceans. Most of the observed temperature rise since the 1950s has been caused by increasing greenhouse gas emissions. If global warming increases temperatures by over 2 degrees Celsius, the United Nations report predicts water shortages will start, sea levels will rise, and food stocks around the world may run out, leading to migration issues. Solutions proposed to address global warming include using energy-efficient light bulbs, reducing car usage, contributing to recycling programs, using less hot water, planting trees, and preventing burning in forests.
The effects of global warming
The 5 deadliest effects of global warming are:
1) The melting of ice caps which will cause sea levels to rise and displace polar bears and other Arctic species from their habitats.
2) The economic consequences, including costs of hundreds of millions displaced by flooding, hunger, and water shortages which could cost up to $200 billion.
3) Increased heat waves and droughts, particularly in Africa, which will worsen conditions and cause food shortages and famine.
4) Warmer ocean waters fuel stronger hurricanes like Katrina which caused $75 billion in damage and 1200 deaths.
5) The spread of diseases as vectors move north and adapt, bringing new illnesses to northern regions.
Climate change and global warming
This document discusses the impacts of climate change and global warming on agriculture. It notes that agriculture depends on climate conditions like temperature, moisture levels, and more. Changes in droughts and floods from climate change could pose challenges for farmers and disrupt ecosystems by shifting fish and shellfish habitats. Climate change could make it harder to grow crops and raise animals in the same ways and places. It also discusses effects like reduced crop nutrition and increased pests from climate change. Global warming is defined and its causes like fossil fuel use and farming practices are outlined. The effects of global warming may include increased crop pests, greater crop losses from droughts and floods, and decreased cereal production.
13 effects on oceans - updated
1) The Gulf Stream circulation system brings warm water northward, acting as an ocean heat pump for northern Atlantic regions. Disruption of this system could cool those regions by 3-5 degrees Celsius.
2) El Niño events have economic and ecological impacts and have been occurring more frequently since the 1970s, possibly due to human-caused climate change. They cause fish to move deeper and result in mass starvation of sea birds.
3) Rising ocean temperatures cause coral bleaching where corals expel symbiotic algae, losing most of their food supply. This often results in coral death and replacement by macro algae. Temperature increases especially threaten Arctic ecosystems.
Global warming definitions_clil_ceip_pl_riadevigo_2017
In this segment of our Global Warming project, we created definitions to define the causes and effects that our students had brainstormed earlier in the year. With dramatic pictures of Global Warming effects, we were able to show the severity of climate change.
Global warming [opraveno]
Global warming is caused by increased concentrations of greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide that accumulate heat in the atmosphere and increase global temperatures. This climate change leads to rising sea levels, increased precipitation, and reduced snow cover in the Northern Hemisphere. The negative effects of higher temperatures include increased mosquito-borne diseases, heat deaths, floods, droughts, famine, destruction of coastal lands and drinking water sources, and the potential disappearance of some coastal states under water.
Global warming
Global warming is causing rapid climate change through rising CO2 emissions and other greenhouse gases from factors like deforestation, energy use, and industrialization. This is raising global temperatures and melting ice caps, glaciers, and permafrost. Consequences include rising sea levels that could flood coastal cities, stronger storms, droughts, and species extinction as animals' habitats change. Immediate action is urgently needed to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and mitigate the effects of climate change.
Natural disaster (nabeel__kp__)
This document discusses different types of natural disasters including tsunamis, earthquakes, floods, wildfires, and landslides. It provides details on the causes and impacts of each type of disaster. Tsunamis are large waves caused by earthquakes or volcanic eruptions under the sea and can result from displacement of water in oceans or large lakes. Earthquakes are caused by the sudden release of built-up energy within geological faults in the earth's crust. Floods occur when bodies of water overflow their usual boundaries, often due to excessive rain. Wildfires are uncontrolled fires that often start in rural areas but can spread to consume homes and farms. Landslides happen when gravity causes slopes of earth, rock, or debris
Approaching climate change in south sudan
South Sudan faces significant climate change impacts like increased temperatures, rainfall, droughts and floods. This has affected agriculture and caused food insecurity for most South Sudanese who depend on farming. The effects of climate change have also led to physical destruction of ecosystems by encouraging encroachment on forests and wetlands. IDA can help South Sudan by establishing climate monitoring, supporting climate-smart agriculture, restoring forests, funding renewable energy and education programs, and population control initiatives to address the vulnerabilities and drivers of climate change in the country. Financing solutions need to consider the different environmental impacts of farmers and industrialists and promote best practices for sustainable resource use across sectors.
Global Warming is a Threat to Our Existence
This is bound to happen and there will come a time when there willl be no snow left at all. Globa warming is the long term warming of the planet's overall temparature. Though this warming trend has been going on for a long time, it's pace has significantly increased over the last hundred years. Today we're going to take a look at the cuurent situation of global warming, it's causes and impacts and finally how to get over it.
Global Warming_3eso
The document discusses various effects of climate change such as more extreme storms, droughts, hurricanes, and floods. It explains that the increasing greenhouse effect from burning fossil fuels is trapping heat in the atmosphere and causing the average temperature of the earth to rise. If emissions are not reduced, scientists predict the global temperature will increase by 7.2 degrees Fahrenheit in this century, which will have widespread consequences like rising sea levels, more frequent heat waves and droughts, expanded ranges for disease-carrying insects, and increased species extinction.
Global warming By Siddharth Koyal
Global warming is caused by the rise in greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide from human activities like burning fossil fuels. The average temperature of the Earth has increased by 0.8°C since the late 19th century, with two-thirds of the increase occurring since 1980. While natural factors can influence climate, the current warming pattern cannot be explained without including the effect of human-emitted greenhouse gases. If warming continues unchecked, impacts are expected to intensify and include rising sea levels, stronger storms, species disruption, and more floods and droughts. Reducing emissions through actions like clean energy and more efficient use of resources can help mitigate the effects of global warming.

Extinction
Extinction of a particular animal or plant species occurs when there are no more individuals of that species alive anywhere in the world - the species has died out. This is a natural part of evolution. But sometimes extinctions happen at a much faster rate than usual. Natural Causes of Extinction.
Value moment (tree)
Trees are the most valuable thing on the planet because they regulate the climate by absorbing 60% of global fossil fuel emissions each year. Climate change is causing rising temperatures, sea levels, and species extinction due to human alteration of land and oceans. While Japan is generally clean, pollution from other countries still impacts it, requiring collective global action to protect the environment such as planting more trees, reducing deforestation, better waste management, and valuing nature over material goods.

Underground water is water found in cracks below the ground. It is the most exposed to pollution because it is underground. The document discusses the water cycle, impacts of pesticides and heat on underground water, and possible solutions to protect underground water sources from pollution.
Water and life substances
The document discusses the importance of water and its properties. Water is a polar molecule that can dissolve many other polar molecules and ionic compounds due to water's attraction to ions and other polar molecules. This attraction between water molecules is caused by hydrogen bonding between the positively charged hydrogen of one water molecule and the negatively charged oxygen of another. This property makes water essential for many cellular functions by helping to maintain homeostasis.

Water moves through a natural cycle, changing states between liquid, solid, and gas. It evaporates from bodies of water, condenses into clouds, and falls as precipitation. Most water is then absorbed by plants or flows into rivers and lakes before evaporating again. Water is also treated and distributed for everyday human uses. It is pumped from underground sources through pipe networks and reservoirs before reaching homes and businesses. Agriculture accounts for about 70% of water consumption globally, while industry uses around 22% and domestic use about 8%. However, consumption varies significantly between wealthy and poor countries. Access to clean drinking water remains a challenge in some parts of the world.
Protists
Protists are a diverse group of eukaryotic organisms that include protozoa, algae, and fungus-like protists. They can be unicellular or multicellular, microscopic or large, and obtain energy through photosynthesis or consuming other organisms or organic matter. Major groups of protists include protozoa such as amoebas, flagellates, ciliates, and sporozoans; algae which perform photosynthesis; and fungus-like protists such as slime molds, water molds, and downy mildews. Protists play important roles in ecosystems as producers, decomposers, and causes of diseases.

Global Worming
The document discusses the causes and impacts of climate change. It outlines that increasing greenhouse gases from human activities are causing the global climate to change. This will result in variations in weather patterns and extreme events like floods and droughts. Bangladesh is highly vulnerable due to its geography, population density, poverty, and reliance on climate-sensitive sectors like agriculture. Impacts include reduced crop production, land loss from sea level rise, damage to water resources, health impacts, effects on biodiversity and ecosystems. National efforts are needed for adaptation and mitigation.
#SciChallenge2017 - Global warming
Global warming poses an existential threat to humanity according to the document. The evidence of climate change is clear from rising sea levels, global temperatures, shrinking ice sheets and increasing extreme weather events. The main causes are human activities like burning fossil fuels and deforestation that release greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide into the atmosphere, enhancing the natural greenhouse effect. Effects of climate change include further temperature rises, longer frost-free seasons, changing precipitation patterns, stronger hurricanes, and Arctic ice melt. Wildlife like dugongs, okapis and Siberian tigers are also threatened with extinction. Individual actions like conserving energy, choosing renewable power, reducing waste, and greener commuting can help address the crisis.
Report on Climate Change
Climate change poses significant risks to Bangladesh through higher temperatures, more extreme weather, and sea level rise. This document examines the effects on agriculture and the economy. Agriculture will be heavily impacted as higher temperatures and changing rainfall patterns reduce food production. Staple crops like rice and wheat are expected to decline. Heavier rainfall will also damage farms through flooding and soil erosion. Rising seas will exacerbate coastal flooding and erosion, threatening land, infrastructure and livelihoods. Altogether, climate change is projected to seriously damage Bangladesh's agriculture and result in very high economic costs through reduced GDP, increased disaster losses, and effects on coastal areas and infrastructure.
Climate change
Climate change is defined as a significant change in climate measures like temperature or precipitation lasting an extended period. Evidence shows the Earth is changing due to global warming. Climate change is affecting all regions - in North America there is less snow and more heat waves, South America is transforming from rainforest to savannah, Europe faces floods and species loss, Africa will have widespread water stress by 2020, and Asia will have decreased freshwater and coastal flooding. The 2003 European heat wave was the hottest since 1540 and led to over 70,000 deaths from heat-related causes and drought. Solutions include using energy efficiently, reducing waste, and increasing wind and solar power to limit greenhouse gases.

The document summarizes key findings from the IPCC Fourth Assessment Report on the impacts of climate change. It finds that climate change is already affecting natural and human systems through reduced agricultural productivity, heightened water insecurity, increased extreme weather events, ecosystem collapse, and higher health risks. Impacts are projected to increase substantially with additional warming. While adaptation can reduce vulnerability in the short-term, limits exist, and mitigation is needed to minimize unavoidable impacts.
Carbon lockin why we should free ourselves
The document discusses carbon lock-in and the challenges of transitioning to renewable energy due to existing fossil fuel infrastructure investments. It notes that while climate change poses serious threats, technologies exist to lower carbon emissions cost-effectively. However, their diffusion has been slow due to carbon lock-in effects from past policies and investments that have made economies dependent on fossil fuels. Transitioning away from these entrenched systems requires overcoming substantial inertia.

COVERED FACTORS REPONSIBLE FOR GLOBAL WARMIMG AND ITS EFFECTS.
Amazon Rainforest wildfires Introduction
The Amazon rainforest is considered the "lungs of the Earth" due to its ability to absorb large amounts of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere. However, deforestation over recent decades has reduced forest cover and increased wildfires. Deforestation is primarily driven by cattle ranching and agriculture, including soybean production. This has negative environmental impacts like increased greenhouse gas emissions, reduced biodiversity, and effects on indigenous groups. Wildfires in 2019 were especially severe due to climate change producing a longer dry season and higher temperatures that year.
Climate change: Changes in the biosphere
The document summarizes the effects of climate change on different aspects of the biosphere, including land cover, marine life, forests, biodiversity, and humans. It discusses how land cover change affects surface albedo and evaporation. It also describes how ocean acidification impacts marine life by reducing the ability of some species to form shells and skeletons. Forests are threatened by diseases and wildfires fueled by climate change. Climate change endangers Arctic mammals that rely on sea ice. Humans face health risks from heat waves, storms, and changing disease patterns.
Climate Resilient Horticultural Crops of Future
Climate Resilient Horticultural Crops of FutureVivekananda Global University, Jaipur, Rajasthan -303012
Concise Oxford Dictionary defines Resilience as recoiling; springing back; resuming its original shape after bending, stretching, compression etc. With five components of crop production - space, water, energy, light, nutrients- limiting, there are biotic and abiotic stresses on crops to perform at thresh hold inputs yielding optimum output. Droughts and floods, extreme cold and heat waves, forest fires, landslides and mudslips, icestorms, duststorms, hailstorms, thunder clouds associated with lightening and sea level rise are throwing new challenges to farmers and farming. This dangerously narrow level of food base prompts to widen the base of grains, vegetables, fruits, spices, industrial crops, mushrooms and aromatic plants. The emphasis was so far on terrestrial plants, forest plants and lesser on aquatic and lower plants. The aquatic plants- fresh water, brackish water, marine- were not much explored for edible use except by Chinese, Japanese and S.E. Asian nations. Halophytes, ferns and sea weeds are so far climate resilient. The Indo-Burmese Centre of origin (Hindustan centre including North East) is abode of several plants of possible vegetable, fruit and spice values. Eighty thousand plants are reported to be of possible use, about 30,000 plants are found edible in nature and approximately 7,000 plants are cultivated by mankind at one time or another, of which 158 plants are grown by man at some point of time. Among these, 30 crops provide world’s food and only 10 crops supply 75% of the world’s food budget. Out of these only three crops-rice, wheat, maize provide 60% of the world’s food requirement.This dangerously narrow level of food base prompts to widen the base of grains, vegetables, fruits, spices, industrial crops medicinal plants, mushrooms, plantation crops, pulses, fibre crops, oil seeds and aromatic plants.The emphasis so far was more on terrestrial plants, forest plants and lesser on lower plants like lichens, micro algae, fungi and bryophytes. The aquatic plants-fresh, brackish, marine water were not much explored for edible use except by Chinese and Japanese.The food base of people in South East Asia is partly on cacti (dragon fruit), micro-algae (azola) and several leaf vegetables unlike in India.Halophytes, bryophytes, ferns and sea weeds are so far climate resilient and require lesser fresh water and energy. The Indo-Burmese Centre of origin (Hindustan centre including North East) is abode of several plants of possible vegetable, fruit, industrial, energy and spicy value. The projected climate resilient crops are edible chasmophytes, brahmakamal, tropical tuber crops, herbs like broad dhaniya (Burmese coriander) and black caraway, kale, ornamental gingers, speciality mushrooms and leafy vegetables of Mizoram unexploited and underutilized in the main land.Climate change

Jagan global warming
Global warming is caused by both natural factors and human activities that increase greenhouse gas emissions like carbon dioxide. The key human factors are burning fossil fuels and deforestation. This traps heat in the lower atmosphere and causes average surface temperatures to rise globally. Effects of global warming include rising sea levels, more extreme weather, damage to ecosystems, and threats to food and water security. Addressing climate change requires both mitigation efforts like transitioning to renewable energy and adaptation strategies to deal with impacts that can no longer be avoided.

20091202 Comenius Economic Aspects
Flooding occurs as sea levels rise due to increasing temperatures causing water to expand. Melting glaciers and ice sheets from warming also contribute to sea level rise. This forces people to relocate and damages economies. Droughts happen where rainfall is insufficient, preventing water vapor from forming. Different types of droughts include meteorological from low rain, agricultural affecting crops, and hydrological with low water levels. Droughts result in reduced crop growth, less water for fishing, and malnutrition from scarce food resources.

20091127 Fr Middle East Group 2 4+5
- Turkey controls the two major rivers in the Middle East, the Tigris and Euphrates rivers, through dams and water infrastructure projects. This gives Turkey influence over downstream countries Iraq and Syria which rely on water from these rivers.
- Iraq and Syria are dependent on Turkey for water as the Tigris and Euphrates rivers originate in eastern Turkey and 70% of the water flows through Turkey before reaching the other countries.
- Disputes over water access and flow have caused conflicts between the three countries as Turkey can regulate and reduce the water flow to Iraq and Syria through its control of the dams and infrastructure.
20091127 Fr Groundwater Group 4 4+5
1) Groundwater is water located underground that is an essential natural resource for humanity.
2) It is replenished by precipitation infiltrating the ground and collects in aquifers, which are permeable underground layers of rock or sediment.
3) Groundwater management is important to prevent overexploitation of aquifers and pollution of this critical resource, as some aquifers have already been exhausted from overuse.
20091127 Fr Camargue Group 2 1+2
The Camargue region of southern France contains a unique ecosystem centered around the Rhone River delta. It has varied environments like salt marshes, lagoons, and rice fields. Managing the water resources between agricultural, environmental, and other needs is an ongoing challenge. The region protects much of its natural areas through land purchases and contracts that encourage environmentally-friendly farming and grazing practices.

Rising sea levels pose economic challenges for coastal states. These states will need to find solutions to address the financial impacts of higher seas. The document discusses how states can develop strategies to deal with the economic effects of sea level rise.
20091126 Fr Group02
While drinkable water resources will never fully disappear due to the natural water cycle, demand is increasing and access to clean water sources is becoming more difficult and costly in some regions. The document discusses how the sun drives evaporation and distillation of seawater, producing drinkable water that falls as rain and collects in rivers, lakes, and underground. However, population growth and industrial use are causing demand to outpace easily accessible supplies. Water treatment and distribution also incur rising economic costs. Desalination of seawater is presented as an important future solution to water scarcity in dry regions. Overall, the passage argues that drinkable water will always exist on Earth but conservation and alternative sources will be needed to meet higher global consumption

This Dissertation explores the particular circumstances of Mirzapur, a region located in the
core of India. Mirzapur, with its varied terrains and abundant biodiversity, offers an optimal
environment for investigating the changes in vegetation cover dynamics. Our study utilizes
advanced technologies such as GIS (Geographic Information Systems) and Remote sensing to
analyze the transformations that have taken place over the course of a decade.
The complex relationship between human activities and the environment has been the focus
of extensive research and worry. As the global community grapples with swift urbanization,
population expansion, and economic progress, the effects on natural ecosystems are becoming
more evident. A crucial element of this impact is the alteration of vegetation cover, which plays a
significant role in maintaining the ecological equilibrium of our planet.Land serves as the foundation for all human activities and provides the necessary materials for
these activities. As the most crucial natural resource, its utilization by humans results in different
'Land uses,' which are determined by both human activities and the physical characteristics of the
land.
The utilization of land is impacted by human needs and environmental factors. In countries
like India, rapid population growth and the emphasis on extensive resource exploitation can lead
to significant land degradation, adversely affecting the region's land cover.
Therefore, human intervention has significantly influenced land use patterns over many
centuries, evolving its structure over time and space. In the present era, these changes have
accelerated due to factors such as agriculture and urbanization. Information regarding land use and
cover is essential for various planning and management tasks related to the Earth's surface,
providing crucial environmental data for scientific, resource management, policy purposes, and
diverse human activities.
Accurate understanding of land use and cover is imperative for the development planning
of any area. Consequently, a wide range of professionals, including earth system scientists, land
and water managers, and urban planners, are interested in obtaining data on land use and cover
changes, conversion trends, and other related patterns. The spatial dimensions of land use and
cover support policymakers and scientists in making well-informed decisions, as alterations in
these patterns indicate shifts in economic and social conditions. Monitoring such changes with the
help of Advanced technologies like Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems is
crucial for coordinated efforts across different administrative levels. Advanced technologies like
Remote Sensing and Geographic Information Systems
9
Changes in vegetation cover refer to variations in the distribution, composition, and overall
structure of plant communities across different temporal and spatial scales. These changes can
occur natural.
