The Philippines relies heavily on coastal fisheries for food and livelihoods. 1.6 million fishermen depend on coastal waters for their livelihood. However, rising global temperatures threaten fisheries as coral reefs and other marine life are impacted. If temperatures rise 1.5 degrees Celsius above pre-industrial levels, fish catches from coastal waters could decline further. To prepare for the effects of climate change, the Philippines must assess vulnerabilities, strengthen fisheries management strategies, and integrate climate adaptation into planning.

The effects of global warming on the marine
Global warming is caused by greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide trapping heat in the atmosphere. The oceans absorb much of this increased heat and carbon dioxide, leading to changes like rising temperatures, shifting currents, and acidification. These changes threaten marine life and ecosystems by disrupting food sources, forcing migrations, damaging coral reefs, and allowing invasive species to outcompete natives. Without action to address climate change, its impacts on the ocean environment will continue to intensify.
The effects of ocean warming ón marine physiology
This document discusses ocean warming and its effects on marine physiology. It defines ocean warming as the increase in ocean temperature due to greenhouse gas emissions trapping more heat. Scientists measure ocean warming using sensors on Argo floats that track temperature, salinity, and depth over time. Ocean warming reduces dissolved oxygen levels and affects marine species through hypercapnia, which is increased carbon dioxide in the blood. This stresses physiology and can impact reproduction. Long-term, ocean warming threatens marine biodiversity and ecosystem function.
Dangers to the environment
The document discusses several dangers to the environment, including pollution, global warming, and extinction. It notes that human activities like agriculture, construction, and hunting can harm the environment. It also explains that pollution contaminates air, soil, and water from sources such as the combustion of coal and oil, insecticides, and industrial and urban waste. Additionally, the document outlines that the greenhouse effect occurs when the atmosphere traps heat, and increased carbon dioxide in the atmosphere is causing global warming and rising temperatures on Earth. This endangers many species and can lead to extinction.

100 word week 4
Seaside resorts face flooding risks due to sea level rise and stronger storms from climate change, threatening infrastructure and tourism. Drought from warming reduces food output, while greenhouse gas emissions must be curbed through alternative energy to limit CO2 pollution. The Caribbean is highly vulnerable to climate impacts like rising heat and extreme weather. Adapting infrastructure and lifestyles can help minimize conflicts from climate effects if mitigation strategies are adopted to avoid the most severe consequences of a 4°C warmer world.
Global Warming
Global warming is the increase in average temperature on Earth over the last century due to greenhouse gases trapping heat in the atmosphere. It is causing more extreme weather, rising sea levels, and harm to human health and wildlife. Polar bears and whales are particularly threatened as their habitats change. To address global warming, countries aim to reduce greenhouse gas emissions through initiatives and technology while adapting to impacts already occurring. Individual actions like conserving energy and driving less can also help reduce the effects of climate change.
The influence of human activity on the environment
The document discusses several negative impacts of population growth and pollution on the environment including increased carbon dioxide emissions, resource consumption, habitat destruction, and global warming. It notes that cutting down forests reduces carbon absorption, while pollution disrupts wildlife and ecosystems. Recommendations include planting more trees, enacting policies to limit emissions, reducing pollution, and emphasizing reduce, reuse and recycle practices to help address these issues.
Unit 3
This document discusses several impacts of climate change, including rising global temperatures, melting ice caps and glaciers, and rising sea levels.

Climate change on food
Climate change is affecting global food production in several ways. Rising temperatures, more extreme weather, and sea level rise are reducing crop yields, increasing irrigation needs, and threatening fisheries. Climate change is also fueling famine and potential conflict by damaging food supplies. Governments must take strong action to reduce emissions in order to limit further global warming and its impacts on the global food system.
Impacts of Climate Change
The document summarizes impacts of climate change including rising global temperatures, sea levels, and shifts in ecosystems. Continued carbon emissions are expected to lead to more warming, melting of ice sheets and glaciers, and sea level rise of several meters over centuries. This poses risks to coastal cities and islands. Certain tipping points such as thawing permafrost and collapse of the West Antarctic ice sheet could have irreversible consequences if crossed. Urgent action is needed to reduce carbon emissions according to the IPCC.

The document recommends ways for agriculture in Nepal to adapt, such as using resistant crops, water management strategies, and integrating livestock and forestry. It also stresses the need for policies, research, and community engagement to build adaptive capacity.
Global Warming
Global warming is one of the most pressing problems facing humanity today, along with climate change, pollution, deforestation, and freshwater resource depletion. It is very likely caused by increasing concentrations of greenhouse gases from human activity, which diminishes ecosystems' ability to naturally adapt. Two main types of air pollution - smog and soot - pose health and environmental risks, with particle pollution being more dangerous. Deforestation damages habitats and biodiversity when sufficient reforestation does not occur. Freshwater resources are vital but many face shortages due to factors like population growth and surface water pollution. Conservation of energy resources through efficient use and reduced consumption can help address these issues. Educating people about environmental problems and promoting recycling
Climate Change
Climate Change is the defining issue of our time. From shifting weather patterns that threaten food production, to rising sea levels that increase the risk of catastrophic flooding, the impacts of climate change are global in scope and unprecedented in scale. Without drastic action today, adapting to these impacts in the future will be more difficult and costly (United Nations).

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.

The document discusses the impacts of climate change on aquatic environments and fish production. It outlines that human activities have increased greenhouse gas emissions and pollution, leading to global warming, rising sea levels, and more extreme weather. These climate changes negatively impact aquatic organisms by changing water and air temperatures and monsoon patterns. Higher temperatures stress aquatic life and cause fish to migrate. Climate change also reduces primary productivity and disrupts marine, freshwater, and coral reef ecosystems. This decreases fish production in aquaculture and marine systems, threatening the economic viability of fishing communities. Adaptation efforts include conservation, education, population control, and integrating climate policies with economic planning.
IMPACT OF GLOBAL WARMING ON AQUATIC FLORA AND FAUNA
A rise in temperature as small as 1° C could have important and rapid effects on the geographical distributions and mortality of some organisms. The more mobile species should be able to adjust their ranges over time, but less mobile and sedentary species may not.There are many factors that can cause a warming of our climate; for example, more energy from the sun, large natural events such as El Nino or an increased greenhouse effect. Rising temperatures can directly affect the metabolism, life cycle, and behaviour of marine species. For many species, temperature serves as a cue for reproduction. Clearly, changes in sea temperature could affect their successful breeding. The number of male and female offspring is determined by temperature for marine turtles, as well as some fish and copepods (tiny shrimp-like animals on which many other marine animals feed). Changing climate could therefore skew sex ratios and threaten population survival.

1. Climate change will have significant negative impacts on agriculture, fisheries, and food security globally and in developing countries like India. It will reduce crop yields and threaten livelihoods.
2. Climate change is also expected to damage freshwater ecosystems through changes in water levels, temperature, and flow of rivers that many depend on for irrigation, fisheries, drinking water, and hydropower. Coastal areas will face risks from sea level rise.
3. Adaptation efforts are needed to strengthen early warning systems, disaster risk management, and promote sustainable farming practices that help populations adapt to a changing climate. Investments in rural development and safety nets can help reduce long term impacts on food security.

ocean role in climate change
The document discusses the relationship between climate change and the ocean. It notes that the ocean absorbs over 30% of carbon dioxide emissions, which is causing the ocean to warm and become more acidic. This is negatively impacting ocean ecosystems and species. Species are migrating to new areas as the climate changes, which could create international issues. Addressing climate change will require significant reductions in greenhouse gas emissions globally through policies like the Paris Agreement. Protecting coastal ecosystems like mangroves and seagrasses can also help mitigate climate change by storing carbon.

Impact of Climate change on fish Production.pdf
Climate change poses threats to the sustainability of aquaculture through rising temperatures, sea level rise, and changes in rainfall and water quality. These impacts include loss of land, damage to coastal habitats, reduced productivity, and increased disease prevalence. Integrated aquaculture-agriculture systems offer opportunities to adapt through more efficient land and water use. Breeding programs, alternative feeds, and renewable energy can also help the sector adapt to climate change impacts. While some regions may see increased aquaculture opportunities, overall production is expected to decline without adaptation measures.
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.

most comprehensive and relevant analysis of our
changing climate. It provides the scientific fact base that will be used around the world to formulate climate policies in the coming years.
This document is one of a series synthesizing the most pertinent findings
of AR5 for specific economic and business sectors. It was born of the belief
that the fisheries and aquaculture sector could make more use of AR5, which is long and
highly technical, if it were distilled into an accurate, accessible, timely,
relevant and readable summary. Although the information presented here is a ‘translation’ of the key content relevant to this sector from AR5, this summary report adheres to the rigorous scientific basis of the original source material.
Grateful thanks are extended to all reviewers from both the science and
business communities for their time, effort and invaluable feedback on
this document. The basis for information presented in this overview report can be found
in the fully-referenced and peer-reviewed IPCC technical and scientific
background reports at: www.ipcc.ch
Ecology.climate change
Climate change is defined as a change in global or regional climate patterns, in particular a change apparent from the mid to late 20th century onwards and attributed largely to the increased levels of atmospheric carbon dioxide produced by the use of fossil fuels. Rising carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases have warmed the planet, causing sea level rise, ice and snow melt, more extreme weather events, and impacts on ecosystems and human systems. To avoid worsening impacts, human-caused greenhouse gas emissions must be reduced by transitioning to clean energy and limiting energy use. Some degree of continued climate change is unavoidable due to past emissions.

This document discusses biodiversity, green roofs, and greenhouses. It notes that biodiversity encompasses genetic, species, and ecosystem variety but is declining due to habitat changes from agriculture, construction, pollution, and climate change. Green roofs can improve building insulation and air quality while reducing pollution. Greenhouses contribute to increased temperatures through carbon dioxide and methane emissions.

Climate change is threatening the environment of the French Riviera through rising temperatures, more frequent droughts and heat waves, and rising sea levels. Visitors can help protect the fragile ecosystem by using less energy in their accommodations, taking public transportation or walking when possible, buying local products to support the economy, and not wasting scarce water resources. Proper disposal of waste and avoiding plastic products can also help reduce pollution of the vulnerable coastal and marine environments. Respecting protected natural areas and following regulations on fires and trespassing will allow the ecosystems to better adapt to climate impacts.
How the world is changing.
Global warming is a phenomenon of climate change characterized by a general increase in average temperatures of the Earth, which modifies the weather balances and ecosystems for a long time. It is directly linked to the increase of greenhouse gases in our atmosphere, worsening the greenhouse effect.

Global warming
- 1. In the Philippines, 1.6 million fishermen rely on the coastal waters of the region. In 1993, 80% of the country's fish caught came from open waters, declining in recent years to 50 percent. If global temperatures approach the 1.5-degree-Celsius (2.7-degree- Fahrenheit) mark above pre-industrial levels, this would decrease further. Fishermen are also one of the country's most disadvantaged and vulnerable groups. In the Philippines, over 1,000 municipalities are clustered in coastal regions, and fishermen's homes are at the forefront, mostly located within easement zones. At the heart of the Pacific Reef Triangle, the Philippines' marine biodiversity stands to lose a lot as corals; sea grass and kelp take the brunt of the effects of rising sea levels, water temperatures, acidification of the waters, and salinity. Over a long period of time, global warming will impact fisheries. The Philippines must brace itself to be prepared for the effect and to try to mitigate. In order to prepare for global warming, the Philippines needs to perform a national-level assessment of the vulnerability of fisheries to global warming in order to respond to the evolving economic conditions that are projected to deteriorate over time and to carry out the assessment on an ongoing and periodic basis, conduct a gap study on the ability to cope with the effect of global warming on the fists, create successful fisheries management strategies to develop climate change adaptation with the cumulative knowledge in the process, integrate the impacts of climate change into national fisheries planning plans, economic development plans and incorporate climate adaptation into the fisheries management strategy.
- 2. Latest reports show that in the past 22 years, the 20 warmest years on record have been, and in the past four years, the top four. The Earth's surface temperature has increased by 1.8°F over the past century. Scientists are predicting another 0.5 to 8.6 ° F increase in the temperature over the next one hundred years. The cause of this climate rise is human activities that have emitted vast quantities of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases (such as methane, nitrous oxide and fluorinated gases) into the atmosphere. Many greenhouse gases come from the combustion of fossil fuels for energy production. Growing water temperatures, a more acidic ocean, melting ice caps, and rising sea levels are among the effects of this global warming. With disastrous effects, the negative consequences of human-driven climate change will continue to accelerate, sea continues to rise, flood and eliminate nesting beaches and marine wildlife habitat. Moving away from fossil fuels is the first way to avoid or mitigate global warming. It is necessary to use renewable energy, but reducing our energy and water usage by the use of more effective equipment (e.g. LED light bulbs, revolutionary shower systems) is less expensive and equally important. Promoting public transit, carpooling, but also the mobility of energy and hydrogen, will undoubtedly help minimize CO2 emissions and thereby tackle global warming. In order to minimize CO2 emissions from buildings caused by heating, air conditioning, hot water or lighting, both the construction of new low-energy buildings and the refurbishment of existing buildings are important. It should also be a priority to promote better use of natural resources, to stop major deforestation, as well as to make agriculture greener and more
- 3. competitive. It is important to follow responsible consumption patterns, whether for food (particularly meat), clothing, cosmetics or cleaning products. Recycling is, last but not least, an utter necessity to cope with waste. The Philippines should be firmly committed to tackling the challenge of global warming as one of the world's most vulnerable nations. We should set goals for global greenhouse gas emissions reductions. Essential legal and institutional mechanisms for climate mitigation and adaptation in the country should be set up by the government. We should help to preserve biodiversity and ecosystems; reduce the use of energy, materials and water through high-efficiency strategies; decarbonize the economy; and decrease or eliminate all types of waste and pollution production.
