Climate Change

Climate change has become an increasingly urgent issue in the 2010s, with extreme weather events and rising temperatures posing a threat to the planet and its inhabitants.

The effects of climate change are becoming more and more apparent, with increasingly frequent and extreme weather events such as hurricanes, floods, droughts and heatwaves. Climate-related disasters have caused widespread destruction and displacement of people around the world. Rising sea levels pose a threat to many coastal cities, while melting ice caps are causing ocean temperatures to rise and leading to a decrease in global fish stocks.

The consequences of climate change are felt around the world, but it is the developing countries that are most affected. As temperatures continue to rise, food insecurity, economic instability and displacement will become more and more common in these regions. In addition, many species of animals and plants are at risk of extinction due to the changing climate.
