Frequently Asked Questions About
Climate Change
-
The difference between weather and climate lies in the timescale and scope of the atmospheric conditions.
Weather is what you get day-to-day, while climate is what you expect based on long-term patterns.
-
Climate change refers to long-term shifts in temperatures and weather patterns. These changes can be natural, such as those caused by variations in the sun’s activity or large volcanic eruptions. However, since the 1800s, human activities have been the primary driver of climate change, mainly due to the burning of fossil fuels like coal, oil, and gas.
This burning releases greenhouse gases into the atmosphere, which trap heat and cause Earth’s average temperatures to rise. This phenomenon is often referred to as global warming, which is a significant aspect of climate change. The effects of climate change include rising sea levels, more frequent and severe weather events like hurricanes and heatwaves, and disruptions to ecosystems and agriculture.
-
While the terms are sometimes used interchangeably, “global warming” specifically refers to the recent rise in the global average temperature near the Earth’s surface. It results from increasing concentrations of greenhouse gases (like carbon dioxide and methane) due to human activities. Climate change covers the overall changes in climate patterns, including global warming.
.
-
Even small temperature changes can trigger a cascade of effects such as extreme weather events, sea level rise, plant and animal ecosystem disruption, agricultural disruption and lower food security, human health and economic costs. It’s essential to address climate change to mitigate these effects.
-
The term was introduced by United Nations Secretary-General António Guterres to describe the extreme and unprecedented heatwaves experienced globally.
He declared that the era of global warming has ended and the era of global boiling has arrived
-
Climate change impacts human health in various direct and indirect ways. Some of these include heat-related illnesses, worsen air quality, increase in spread of diseases, and mental health impact due to extreme weather events and disruptions to communities
-
Actions like transitioning to clean energy sources, opting for walking, cycling, public transport, or electric vehicles instead of driving fossil fuel-powered cars, minimizing waste by recycling and reusing products to lower the demand for new materials and lowers greenhouse gas emissions, and promoting sustainable practices can help mitigate climate change.
-
Acting promptly can prevent more severe impacts, protect ecosystems, improve public health and create a more sustainable future for all.
