Global warming is caused by increased greenhouse gases from human activities like burning fossil fuels and farming. The impacts of climate change, like drought, flooding, and health issues, are interrelated and can harm food production, ecosystems, infrastructure, and human well-being. We can prevent further global warming by reducing fossil fuel use, being more energy efficient, planting trees, using energy-efficient appliances, reducing water and food waste, switching to LED bulbs, and eating less meat.

1. Global warming

2. Impacts of climate
change
• The impacts of climate change on
different sectors of society
are interrelated.
• Drought can harm food production and
human health.
• Flooding can lead to disease spread and
damages to ecosystems
and infrastructure.
• Human health issues can increase
mortality, impact food availability, and
limit worker productivity

3. Main causes of
global warming
• It is caused by increased concentrations of
greenhouse gases in the atmosphere,
mainly from human activities such as:
• Burning fossil fuels
• And farming

4. Prevention of
global warming
• We can prevent Global Warming by
reducing the demand of fossil fuels
and by using the energy
more wisely.
• Some of the simple actions which
can help us to reduce
the effects the global warming are
- REUSE, REDUCE AND RECYCLE
• We can reduce the emission of
carbon dioxide by
choosing reusable products instead
of disposables

5. By planting trees
• We should plant more and more trees as
they absorb carbon dioxide and give off
oxygen.
• They are an integral part of the natural
atmospheric exchange cycle here on Earth

6. Invest in energy-
efficient appliances
• Since they were first implemented
nationally in 1987, efficiency standards
for dozens of appliances and products
have kept 2.3 billion tons of carbon
dioxide out of the air.
• That’s about the same amount as the
annual carbon pollution coughed up by
nearly 440 million cars.
• Energy efficiency is the lowest-cost way
to reduce emissions.

7. Reduce water waste
• Saving water reduces carbon pollution, too. That's
because it takes a lot of energy to pump, heat,
and treat your water.
• So take shorter showers, turn off the tap while
brushing your teeth, and switch to WaterSense-
labeled fixtures and appliances.
• The EPA estimates that if just one out of every 100
American homes were retrofitted with water-
efficient fixtures, about 100 million kilowatt-hours
of electricity per year would be saved 80,000 tons
of global warming pollution.

8. Buy better bulbs
• LED lightbulbs use up to 80 percent less
energy than
conventional incandescents.
• They’re also cheaper in the long run.
• A 10-watt LED that replaces your
traditional 60-watt bulb will save you
$125 over the lightbulb’s life.

9. Eat the food you buy
and make less of it
meat.
• Approximately 15 percent of energy use
goes into growing, processing, packaging,
and shipping food about 40 percent of
which just winds up in the landfill.
• And since livestock products are among
the most resource-intensive to produce,
eating meat-free meals can make a big
difference, too.
• If you’re wasting less food, you’re likely
cutting down on energy consumption.
