a broad range of global phenomena created
predominantly by burning fossil fuels, which
add heat-trapping gases to Earth’s atmosphere.
These phenomena include the increased
temperature trends described by global
warming, but also encompass changes such as
sea level rise; ice mass loss in Greenland,
Antarctica, the Arctic and mountain glaciers
worldwide; shifts in flower/plant blooming; and
extreme weather events
The effects of anthropogenic – human-caused – climate
change range from more frequent and severe droughts to
snowstorms and extreme winter weather in temperature
regions as a result of warming Arctic weather fronts.
It's not only humans that are affected. Warming ocean
temperatures are increasing the frequency of coral reef
Effects of bleaching; warmer, drier weather means that forests in
some regions are no longer recovering from wildfires and
Climate wildlife habitats around the world are becoming less
hospitable to animals.
Changes Climate change is having economic and socio-political
effects, too. Food scurity is already being impacted in a
number of African countries and researchers are studying
suggestive links between climate change and an increased
likelihood of military conflict.

Move Closer to Work—Transportation is the second leading source of
greenhouse gas emissions in the U.S. (burning a single gallon of gasoline
produces 20 pounds of CO2). One way to dramatically curtail
transportation fuel needs is to move closer to work, use mass transit, or
switch to walking, cycling or some other mode of transport that does not
require anything other than human energy.

Be Efficient—A potentially simpler and even bigger impact can be made


by doing more with less. Citizens of many developed countries are

profligate wasters of energy, whether by speeding in a gas-guzzling sport-
utility vehicle or leaving the lights on when not in a room.

Climate Changes Unplug—Believe it or not, U.S. citizens spend more money on electricity
to power devices when off than when on. Televisions, stereo equipment,
computers, battery chargers and a host of other gadgets and appliances
consume more energy when seemingly switched off, so unplug them
instead.

Future Fuels—Replacing fossil fuels may prove the great challenge of the
21st century. Many contenders exist, ranging from 
ethanol derived from crops to hydrogen electrolyzed out of water, but all
of them have some drawbacks, too, and none are immediately available at
the scale needed.
