Climate Change (Paperback)

Paperback. Climate change is a significant and lasting change in the statistical distribution of weather patterns over periods ranging from decades to millions of years. It may be a change in average weather conditions or in the distribution of weather around the average conditions. Climate change is caused by factors such as biotic processes, variations in solar radiation received by Earth, plate tectonics, and volcanic eruptions. Certain human activities have also been identified as significant causes of climate change and very likely the main cause of the phenomenon known as global warming. Global warming is the rise in the average temperature of Earth's atmosphere and oceans due to increase in greenhouse gases (GHGs) emissions. Warming of the climate system is unequivocal and scientists concluded that more than 90.00 per cent is primarily caused by increasing concentrations of greenhouse gases produced by human activities such as the burning of fossil fuels, deforestation for industrial and agriculture activities. Due to climate change universally human beings experience massive and severe problems. This item is printed on demand.
