• Climate change is the change in the
weather that would normally occur in
a location. One example of climate
Change could be a change in the
amount of rain or snow a place
normally gets in a year. Another
example of climate change could be a
drop in a place's usual temperature to
month or vice versa. Climate Change
is also related to a change in Earth's
climate, such as a change Earth's usual
temperature, or change in where rain
or snow usually fall on Earth. Weather

What is Climate can change in just a few hours, while


climate takes hundreds to millions of
years to change.

and climate change will likely
increase weeds and pests.

coal and oil has increased the concentration of atmospheric carbon
dioxide(CO2), This happens because the coal or oil burning process combines
carbon and oxygen in the air to make CO2, To a lesser extent, the clearing of
land for agriculture, industry, and other human activites has increased
concentrations of greenhouse gases.
How do we know Climate "Scientists have been observing
Change is real? Earth for a long time. They use
NASA satellites and other
instruments to collect many types
of information about Earth's land,
atmosphere, ocean and ice. This
information tells us that Earth's
climate is getting warmer"
(climatekids.nasa.gov) shows that
besides your own observations on
the Earth over the years, scientists
around the globe have been able to
detect the changes in Earth's
climate, along with the causes of
climate change.
• Like I have stated in the other slides, climate change has
numerous effect on the Earth's inhabitants and environment.
Some of the greatest impacts on Earth have been increased
heat, droughts, increase in pests, rising sea levels, and
melting glaciers. Scientists have predicted that there are
"Only 11 years left to prevent irreversible damage from
climate change" (un.org).
