Climate Change

Name of Student

Introduction
The climate means the long weather condition of the specific

area; generally it considers 10 to 40 years. The climate


measures by to assessing different conditions of the particular
place like as wind, precipitation, temperature, humidity,
atmospheric pressure etc. The climate different form weather,
weather is the short run condition of any specific place. The
climate change directly and indirectly related to different a
human activity thats affect the overall atmosphere. The
increase in industrial development also increased the demand
for the fossil fuels like as coal, oil and gas. The use of fossil fuel
and spoil of forests increased the level of carbon dioxide into
the overall atmosphere. The carbon dioxide increased the heat
of the earth and gives a way to global warming, and also affects
the climate to b changed.

Green House
The greenhouse effect is a process by

which thermal radiation from a planetary


surface is absorbed by atmospheric
greenhouse gases, and is re-radiated in all
directions. Since part of this re-radiation is
back towards the surface and the lower
atmosphere, it results in an elevation of the
average surface temperature above what it
would be in the absence of the gases.

Deforestation
Forests play a huge role in the carbon cycle

on our planet. When forests are cut down,


not only does carbon absorption cease, but
also the carbon stored in the trees is
released into the atmosphere as CO2 if the
wood is burned or even if it is left to rot
after the deforestation process.

Coal Mining
A large number of environmental problems are associated with

the production and combustion of coal. One significant impact is


acid mine drainage, where acidic run-off is formed through a
chemical reaction between water and sulfur-bearing rocks. This
run-off contaminates creeks and rivers, and, because it diffuses
easily, can be difficult to contain. Another significant impact is
the practice of mountaintop mining. As the tops of mountains
are removed to reveal coal seams, the sediment and waste
becomes valley fill, impacting water quality and resulting in the
loss of headwater ecosystems, or the species and
environmental processes that are native to river sources. The
U.S. Environmental Protection Agency uses the best-available
science and incorporates feedback from the public and key
stakeholders to provide guidance to protect water quality and
peoples health regarding abandoned mines and mountaintop
removal mining, among other things.

Industrial Process
The increase in industrial development also

increased the demand for the fossil fuels


like as coal, oil and gas. The use of fossil
fuel and spoil of forests increased the level
of carbon dioxide into the overall
atmosphere. The carbon dioxide increased
the heat of the earth and gives a way to
global warming, and also affects the
climate to b changed.

Agricultural
Overall, climate change could result in a

variety of impacts on agriculture. Some of


these effects are biophysical, some are
ecological, and some are economic,
including:
A shift in climate and agricultural zones
towards the poles
Changes in production patterns due to
higher temperatures
A boost in agricultural productivity due to
increased carbon dioxide in the atmosphere
Changing precipitation patterns

Natural Causes of Climate


Changes
Volcanic Eruptions
Ocean Currents
Earth Orbital
Solar Variation

Ocean Currents
An ocean current is any more or less permanent or continuous,

directed movement of ocean water that flows in one of the Earth's


oceans.
The currents are generated from the forces acting upon the water
like the earth's rotation, the wind, the temperature and salinity
differences and the gravitation of the moon.
Ocean currents can flow for thousands of kilometers.
They are very important in determining the climates of the
continents, especially those regions bordering on the ocean.
Perhaps the most striking example is the Gulf Stream, which makes
northwest Europe much more temperate than any other region at the
same latitude.
Deep ocean currents are driven by density and temperature
gradients.
These currents, which flow under the surface of the ocean and are
thus hidden from immediate detection, are called submarine rivers.

Earth Orbital
For more than a century scientists have

known that Earths ice ages are caused by


the wobbling of the planets orbit, which
changes its orientation to the sun and
affects the amount of sunlight reaching
higher latitudes, particularly the polar
regions.

Solar Variation
The sun has powered almost everything on

Earth since life began, including its climate.


The sun also delivers an annual and
seasonal impact, changing the character of
each hemisphere as Earth's orientation
shifts through the year. Since the Industrial
Revolution, however, new forces have
begun to exert significant influence on
Earth's climate.

Conclusion
It

is seen from the aforementioned


discussion that climate changes have
started adversely affecting the overall
quality of life in the country in the form of
reduced agriculture productivity, increased
human morbidity and stressed use of
natural resources. Just like other nations
such as United Arab Emirates needs to
develop a national plan of action on climate
change which will address some of the
most pressing issues and outline areas of
priority for investments and actions. The
two key methods that will help combat

Recommendation
To plants more trees
To reduce the deforestation
Industries should more focus on the

corporate social responsibility


To minimize the fuel consumption for
protecting the environment.

Thanks.
