A terrestrial ecosystem is a land-based community of organisms
and the interactions of biotic and abiotic components in a given
area. They are as follows:

THE
CLIMATE CHANGE
AND ECOSYSTEMS
PRESENTED BY: ZANDRO ZEBASTIEN ZYN A. EBORA
What is a
CLIMATE CHANGE
Climate change refers to long-term shifts
in temperatures and weather patterns.
Such shifts can be natural, due to
changes in the sun’s activity or large
volcanic eruptions.

GREEN HOUSE EFFECT
The greenhouse effect is the primary cause of
climate change. Some gases in the Earth's
atmosphere act a bit like the glass in a
greenhouse by trapping solar heat and
preventing it from escaping back into space,
which would otherwise contribute to global
warming.
EFFECTS OF CLIMATE
CHANGE
Hotter Temperatures
Severe Storms
Increased drought
A warming, rising ocean
Loss of species
SOLUTIONS TO
CLIMATE CHANGE
Invest in renewable energy
Halt deforestation and commit to rebuilding
damaged ecosystems
Subsidize low-carbon alternatives for urban
planning
CONCLUSION
In conclusion, this report underscores the vital importance of
understanding ecosystems, not merely as a reservoir of facts and data,
but as a call to action. While acquiring knowledge about our
environment is undeniably essential, it must be complemented by a
commitment to preservation and responsible stewardship. Ultimately, it
is our collective responsibility to safeguard and nurture the delicate
balance of life within our ecosystems, recognizing that our well-being is
intricately linked to the health of the planet. Thus, fostering awareness
and taking meaningful steps to protect and sustain our environment are
equally vital pursuits that warrant our unwavering attention and
dedication.
Thank you for
