The Climate Crisis
The climate crisis refers to the rapid warming of our planet caused primarily by human activities, especially burning fossil fuels like coal, oil, and gas. This leads to increased greenhouse gases in the atmosphere, trapping heat and disrupting natural weather patterns. Effects include more frequent and severe storms, droughts, rising sea levels, and loss of biodiversity. Addressing the crisis requires reducing emissions, transitioning to renewable energy sources, and adopting sustainable practices to protect ecosystems and future generations. It’s a complex challenge demanding global cooperation and urgent action.
