Climate Change: a Brief History

What is Climate Change? The last 650,000 years- Seven cycles of glacial advance and retreatIce age ends 7,000 =Modern Climate Era and Human CivilizationMost caused by small variations in earth’s orbitCurrent trend 95% because of human activity since mid 20th century and is proceeding at a rate that far exceeds any other decades previous

Countries Affected by Climate Change and How

Climate change affects us allModern Industrialization/Fossil FuelsDepletion of the ozone layerSummer sea ice in Arctic dwindles.Glaciers shrinking worldwide/affects runoff and water resources which rise sea levelWarming and thawing in the high elevations is causing permafrost to degrade.Many species shifted their geographic ranges, activities, and migration patterns.The oceans are acidifying by absorbing C02 from humans causing coral reefs to die.

The effects of Climate Change on the world population as a whole

Global problems are everyone’s problemsAct now! Our time is running out!climate change is already having substantial impacts on the entire world
