Good morning teacher and classmates today I’m going to tell you about

How climate change affects our future?

First of all, we need to know what is Climate change. It refers to significant and long-term shifts
in temperature, precipitation, wind patterns, and other aspects of the Earth's climate system.
These may be natural, but since the 19th century, human activities have been the main driver
of climate change. The climatic change has become a global concern over the last few decades.
Besides, these affects life on the earth in various ways.

Causes

The damage is known to be caused by human activities and according to the United Nations
the world is warming faster than at any time in recorded history.
Caused by overconsumption: of what we eat, the energy we use; waste, energy generation,
the burning of fossil fuels, the cutting down of forests to create farms or pastures, transport in
which we move and other causes.

Impacts in the future

It will be characterized by climate imbalances that are already causing a series of high-impact n
atural phenomena, such as droughts and fires,
floods, heat waves, an increase in the frequency of tropical storms and an irretrievable loss of
biodiversity. But they are expecting to include a warmer atmosphere, a warmer and more
acidic ocean, higher sea levels, and larger changes in precipitation patterns.

Consequences

In the future, the consequences will be reduced water availability and crop yields, increased
longer duration of droughts, loss of biodiversity, forest fires like more frequent wildfires,
heat waves and an increase in the duration and intensity of tropical storms.
Which is very worrying for scientists to what is going to happened in the future.

Evidence

Climate shifts like heat waves could restrict the ability of people to work outdoor, and, in
extreme cases, put their lives at risk. Under a 2050 climate scenario developed by NASA,
continuing growth of the greenhouse emission at today's rate could lead to additional global
warming of about 1.5 degrees Celsius above preindustrial levels by 2050.

solutions

To protect our climate, buy less stuff, buy second-hand, repair what you can, and recycle.
Plastics alone generated 1.8 billion metric tons of greenhouse gas emissions in 2019,
3.4% of the global total.

According to the NASA they take sustainability very seriously. NASA’s sustainability policy is to
execute its mission as efficiently as possible. In doing so, we continually improve our space and
ground operations.
