A significant variation of

or drier over several decades
or more. 
What Causes C
limate Change?
—When energy from the sun is reflected
off the earth and back into space (mostly by
clouds and ice), or when the earth’s
atmosphere releases energy, the planet cools.
When the earth absorbs the sun’s energy, or
when atmospheric gases prevent heat
released by the earth from radiating into
space (the greenhouse effect), the planet

 Natural causes of climate
change!
Forces that can contribute to climate change include the sun’s
intensity, volcanic eruptions, and changes in naturally occurring
greenhouse gas concentrations.

 Anthropogenic causes of climate

change!
The greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions that human activity
generates are the leading cause of the earth’s rapidly changing
climate today.

●The E Cha ng e!
According to the World Economic
Forum’s Global Risks Report 2021,
the failure to mitigate and adapt to
climate change is “the most impactful”
risk facing communities worldwide
ahead of even weapons of mass
destruction and water crises.

Facts!
Despite what climate deniers and fossil fuel lackeys claim, for instance, the science
on global warming is “far from settled”—there’s nothing to debate: Climate change
is a reality!

The atmosphere and ocean have warmed, the amounts of snow and ice have
diminished, and sea level has risen.”

“These dangerous effects of climate change will worsen each year that we fail
to curb the pollution that is destabilizing our planet.” –(Vijay Limaye)

 Climate change is a long-term shift in global or regional
climate patterns. Often climate change refers specifically
to the rise in global temperatures from the mid-20th
century to present.

Climate change is the long-term alteration of

temperature and typical weather patterns in a place.

The cause of current climate change is largely human

activity, like burning fossil fuels, like natural gas, oil, and
coal.

Health! Climate change affects the social
and environmental determinants of
health – clean air, safe drinking
water, sufficient food and secure
shelter.

Climate change is the single biggest

health threat facing humanity, and
health professionals worldwide are
already responding to the health

Risks!
Impacting health in a myriad of
ways, including by leading to death
and illness from increasingly
frequent extreme weather events,
such as heatwaves, storms and
floods, the disruption of food
systems, increases in zoonoses and
food-, water- and vector-borne
diseases, and mental health issues.
 In
Brief:
The effects of human-caused global warming are happening now, are irreversible
on the timescale of people alive today, and will worsen in the decades to come.

Global climate change has already had observable effects on the environment.
Glaciers have shrunk, ice on rivers and lakes is breaking up earlier, plant and
animal ranges have shifted and trees are flowering sooner.

Effects that scientists had predicted in the past would result from global climate
change are now occurring: loss of sea ice, accelerated sea level rise and longer,
more intense heat waves.

Scientists have high confidence that global temperatures will continue to rise for
decades to come, largely due to greenhouse gases produced by human activities.
The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), which includes more
than 1,300 scientists from the United States and other countries, forecasts a
temperature rise of 2.5 to 10 degrees Fahrenheit over the next century.
 In
Brief:
According to the IPCC, the extent of climate change effects on individual regions
will vary over time and with the ability of different societal and environmental
systems to mitigate or adapt to change.

The IPCC predicts that increases in global mean temperature of less than 1.8 to
5.4 degrees Fahrenheit (1 to 3 degrees Celsius) above 1990 levels will produce
beneficial impacts in some regions and harmful ones in others. Net annual costs
will increase over time as global temperatures increase.

"Taken as a whole," the IPCC states, "the range of published evidence indicates
that the net damage costs of climate change are likely to be significant and to
increase over time."
 “Climate change is the greatest
threat to our existence in our short
history on this planet. Nobody’s
going to buy their way out of its
effects.”
