Climate change is causing various environmental stresses that impair plant growth, such as drought, high temperatures, and soil salinization. These stresses trigger responses in plant processes, gene expression, cellular metabolism, growth, and productivity. Changes in climate are also altering species distributions, life cycles, and interactions between species. Both direct impacts on individual species and indirect impacts through species interactions must be considered when predicting how plants will respond to climate change. Immediate action is needed to limit global warming and mitigate its effects on plants and ecosystems.

Plants can't move and get out of the way when water levels become difficult to handle. Flooding and soil saturation leads to a depletion of oxygen in the soil and reduction of light and carbon dioxide availability. So how do plants deal with the stress of being flooded?
One important function of most seeds is delayed germination, which allows time for dispersal and prevents germination of all the seeds at the same time.
The staggering of germination safeguards some seeds and seedlings from suffering damage or death from short periods of bad weather or from transient herbivores; it also allows some seeds to germinate when competition from other plants for light and water might be less intense.
Generally plants or plant structures, in order to overcome or survive against hostile environmental conditions undergo a period of dormancy with suitable modifications.
In lower plants production of endospores, zygospores, auxospores, akinetes, etc, are some of the methods involved in tiding over unfavorable conditions
Angiosperms produce seeds within the ovary and ovary itself develops into a fruit. In Gymnosperms only seeds develop.

The change does not only have academic important but its effects in all the forms of life.
Plants, animals, human beings change with changes of climate.
In general, all living species thrive under definite and limit conditions and any great deviation from that will leads to destruction and death of the species.
Ecology: Scientific study of interactions between organisms and their environments which includes Biotic Factors: (Living organisms) , Abiotic Factors: (Nonliving physical and chemical conditions of an environment).
What are the levels of the Ecology?
Ecology has Five Levels.
Individual organism: Single organism in an environment
Populations: Group of individual organisms of same species living in the same area
Communities: All of the organisms that inhabit a particular area make up a community, like coral reef and other organisms live around in the reef
Ecosystems: An ecosystem includes both the biotic and abiotic factors of an area
Biosphere:
Sum of all of Earth's ecosystems, it is an envelope of air, land, and water supporting all living things on Earth. It consists of both the atmosphere and ocean.
Ecologists investigate global issues in the biosphere, including climate change and its effect on living things
The effects have been most dramatic at high latitudes, where multiple processes contribute to decreased surface reflectivity
Changes in temperature are causing species to shift their natural ranges; however, those are unable to move in line with changing temperatures are being put at risk.

IMPACTS OF CLIMATE CHANGE ON AGRICULTURE AND ALLIED.pptxSGowriShankar5
The Earth's climate has varied vastly in the history. Climate change is the change that can be attributed directly or laterally to mortal exertion that alters the composition of the global atmosphere and which is in addition to natural climate variability observed over similar time ages. The climate sensitivity of agriculture is uncertain, as there is regional variation in rainfall, temperature, crops and cropping systems, soils and management practices. Increase in water and air pollution causing migration of birds and animals as well as decrease in drinking water availability. So, Changes occurred in flowering and fruiting time of crops causing scarcity of fodder in area was affected most impact on Climate Change. The crop losses may increase if the predicted climate change increases the climate variability. Climate change will have its impact on the particulars like Vulnerability to Extreme Events, Impacts on Coastal Areas, Impacts on Biodiversity, Impacts on Pest, Impact of Climate Change on Disease and Crop Loss. The intermittent famines hang seriously the livelihood of billions of people who depend on land for utmost of their requirements. Among the greenhouse effects, CO2 is the predominant gas leading to global warming as it traps long surge radiation and emits it back to the earth surface. The global warming is nothing but heating of surface atmosphere due to emission of greenhouse gases, thereby increasing global atmospheric temperature over a long period of time. There is strong evidence of increase in average global air and ocean temperatures, widespread melting of snow and ice, and rising of average global sea levels. The policies and the mission should ensure the Sustainability of the agricultural development. The need of the hour is strengthening the agricultural policies and programme to address the issues related to impact of climate change.

Operation “Blue Star” is the only event in the history of Independent India where the state went into war with its own people. Even after about 40 years it is not clear if it was culmination of states anger over people of the region, a political game of power or start of dictatorial chapter in the democratic setup.
The people of Punjab felt alienated from main stream due to denial of their just demands during a long democratic struggle since independence. As it happen all over the word, it led to militant struggle with great loss of lives of military, police and civilian personnel. Killing of Indira Gandhi and massacre of innocent Sikhs in Delhi and other India cities was also associated with this movement.

2. Climate change definition,
• A long-term change in the earth's climate,
especially a change due to an increase in the
average atmospheric temperature.
3. • Changes in climate bring about environmental
abiotic stresses that severely impair plant growth
and productivity worldwide.
• Some examples of environmental stresses
brought about by climate change are drought,
high temperatures, soil salinization, flooding, acid
rain, high levels of CO2 in the atmosphere, etc.
• Environmental abiotic stresses severely impair
plant growth and productivity triggering a wide
variety of plant responses, ranging from altered
plant processes, gene expression and cellular
metabolism to changes in growth and
productivity
4. Climate change is likely to affect the infectious
disease burden from exposure to pathogens in
water used for drinking and recreation
• Climate change is already having a significant
impact on ecosystems, economies and
communities.
• Some regions will experience more extreme
heat while others may cool slightly.
• Flooding, drought and intense summer heat
could result.
6. • Climate change directly affects species by
altering their physical environment and
indirectly affects species by altering
interspecific interactions such as predation and
competition.
• The global meltdown of ice sheets and alpine
glaciers represents another, taking an
immense toll on Arctic ecosystems.
7. • Vegetation change contributed more to future
total burned area

8. Alpine flora at Logan Pass, Glacier National Park, in Montana, United States:
Alpine plants are one group expected to be highly susceptible to the impacts
of climate change
9. • climatic factors such as temperature and
precipitation change.
• change in a region beyond the tolerance of a
species phenotypic plasticity, then distribution
changes of the species may be inevitable.
10. • here is already evidence that plant species are
shifting their ranges in altitude and latitude as
a response to changing regional climates.
• Yet it is difficult to predict how species ranges
will change in response to climate and
separate these changes from all the other
man-made environmental changes such as
eutrophication, acid rain and habitat
destruction
12. • climate change is due to increase in the
concentration of CO2 (50-60%).
• The increase concentration of CO2 increases
the rate of photosynthesis where water is in
sufficient amount.
• But in drought areas the increase in
temperature decrease the level/amount of
water in soil.
13. • Increasing temperature also affects photosynthesis, With increasing
temperature, vapour pressure deficits of the air may increase, with
a concomitant increase in the transpiration rate from plant
canopies.
• However, if stomata close in response to increasing
C02concentration, or if there is a reduction in the diurnal
temperature range, then transpiration rates may even decrease.
• Soil organic matter decomposition rates are likely to be stimulated
by higher temperatures, so that nutrients can be more readily
mineralised and made available to plants.
• This is likely to increase photosynthetic carbon gain in nutrient-
limited systems.
• All the factors listed above interact strongly so that, for different
combinations of increases in temperature and CO(2) concentration,
and for systems in different climatic regions and primarily affected
by water or nutrient limitations, photosynthesis must be expected
to respond differently to the same climatic changes..
14. • When compared to the reported past
migration rates of plant species, the rapid
pace of current change has the potential to
not only alter species distributions, but also
render many species as unable to follow the
climate to which they are adapted
15. • The environmental conditions required by
some species, such as those in alpine regions
may disappear altogether.
• The result of these changes is likely to be a
rapid increase in extinction risk
16. • Adaptation to new conditions may also be of
great importance in the response of plants
• Predicting the extinction risk of plant species
is not easy however.
• Estimations from particular periods of rapid
climatic change in the past have shown
relatively little species extinction in some
regions, for example.
• Knowledge of how species may adapt or
persist in the face of rapid change is still
relatively limited.
17. • Changes in the suitability of a habitat for a
species drive distributional changes by not
only changing the area that a species can
physiologically tolerate, but how effectively it
can compete with other plants within this
area.
• Changes in community composition are
therefore also an expected product of climate
change
23. Changes in life-cycles (phenology)
• The timing of phenological events such as
flowering are often related to environmental
variables such as temperature.
• Changing environments are therefore
expected to lead to changes in life cycle
events, and these have been recorded for
many species of plants
24. • These changes have the potential to lead to the
asynchrony between species, or to change
competition between plants.
• Flowering times in British plants for example have
changed, leading to annual plants flowering
earlier than perennials, and insect pollinated
plants flowering earlier than wind pollinated
plants; with potential ecological consequences
• A recently published study has used data
recorded by the writer and naturalist Henry David
Thoreau to confirm effects of climate change on
the phenology of some species in the area of
Concord, Massachusetts
25. Indirect effects of climate change
• All species are likely to be directly impacted by the
changes in environmental conditions discussed above,
and also indirectly through their interactions with
other species.
• While direct impacts may be easier to predict and
conceptualise, it is likely that indirect impacts are
equally important in determining the response of
plants to climate change.
• A species whose distribution changes as a direct result
of climate change may ‘invade’ the range of another
species or 'be invaded' for example, introducing a new
competitive relationship or altering other processes
such as carbon sequestration
26. • In Europe, the temperature and precipitation
effects due to climate change can indirectly
affect certain populations of people.
• The rise of temperatures and lack of
precipitation results in different river
floodplains, which reduce the populations of
people sensitive to flood risk
27. • The range of a symbiotic fungi associated
with plant roots may directly change as a
result of altered climate, resulting in a
change in the plant's distribution.
• A new grass may spread into a region,
altering the fire regime and greatly
changing the species composition.
28. • A pathogen or parasite may change its
interactions with a plant, such as a pathogenic
fungus becoming more common in an area
where rainfall increases.
• Increased temperatures may allow herbivores
to expand further into alpine regions,
significant impacting the composition of
alpine herb fields.
29. • consequences of climate change mitigation policies?
Policies to subsidies and increase biofuels production in
2008 had a number of unintended consequences.
Shifts of maize (corn) production to ethanol production
in the US were one contributor to the food price spike in
2008, with very damaging impacts on food security.
Biofuel incentives which led to the clearing of rainforest
for oil palm production could actually increase
greenhouse gas emissions with the release of carbon
dioxide from the burning of biomass and the breakdown
of soil organic matter.
Of course there are questions about how far biofuel
promotion is actually driven by concern to reduce
greenhouse emissions rather than to support particular
farming interest groups. (Koplow 2006)
30.
31. Conclusion
• The world’s leading scientists report that to
prevent dangerous levels of global warming
governments should act to limit global
warming to less than 2ºC by taking concerted
action to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
• The sooner we act to reduce greenhouse
gases, the less severe impacts will be.
• Now is the time to implement solutions.
