Raise awareness for Climate Change
Climate change, It's the fundamental theme of our time, and we're at a defining moment. From evolving weather patterns that threaten food production to increasing sea levels that increase the risk of catastrophic flooding, climate change impacts are global in nature and unprecedented in scope. Without immediate action now, it will be more difficult and costly to respond to these impacts in the future.
Because of human activities the Earth
has gotten warmer for the past 50 to 100 years. An example of this are caused
by greenhouses, greenhouse gasses occur naturally and are important to the
existence of humans. They prevent some of the warmth of the sun from reflecting
back into space and making Earth viable. The volume of greenhouse gasses in the
atmosphere has risen to record levels not seen in three million years.
Gases emitted by greenhouses have
high impacts on the climate and our health. By trapping heat, they cause
climate change and also result in chronic respiratory diseases from smog and
air pollution. Other effects of climate change caused by greenhouse emissions
include severe weather, food supply shortages, and increased wildfires.
If we don’t give attention to this kind of matter the situation might get worse. We should raise awareness now. Awareness is an integral element of the global climate change response. It helps people consider and discuss the effects of global warming, strengthens young people's climate awareness, facilitates changes in their attitudes and behaviors, and helps them respond to developments related to climate change. Education and awareness-raising encourage informed decision-making, play a critical role in enhancing community capacity for adaptation and mitigation, and inspire women and men to embrace sustainable lifestyles.
