Industrialization, particularly the burning of fossil fuels, has significantly elevated greenhouse gas concentrations in the atmosphere, contributing to global warming and climate change.

Carbon Dioxide (CO2) is the primary greenhouse gas emitted by human activities, primarily through the burning of fossil fuels, deforestation, and industrial processes. It plays a significant role in trapping heat in the atmosphere, leading to global warming.

Rising global temperatures have resulted in increased frequency and intensity of extreme weather events, sea level rise due to thermal expansion and melting glaciers, and ocean acidification caused by increased absorption of CO2 by seawater.

Climate change poses significant threats to biodiversity and ecosystems, causing species extinction and habitat loss, disrupting ecological balance and food chains, and altering migration patterns and reproductive cycles.

The Arctic, coastal areas, and Small Island Developing States are particularly vulnerable to the impacts of climate change, facing rising sea levels, increased frequency and intensity of extreme weather events, and disruption of ecosystems.

Global Warming refers to the observed increase in the average temperature of the Earth's atmosphere and oceans, primarily caused by the accumulation of greenhouse gases.

The Paris Agreement is an international agreement that aims to limit global warming and mitigate climate change by reducing greenhouse gas emissions and promoting sustainable development.

Resilience refers to the ability of an ecosystem to recover from disturbances and maintain its functionality, which is crucial for adapting to the impacts of climate change.

Solar Energy is obtained from the sun's radiation and converted into electricity using photovoltaic cells or concentrated solar power systems.

Mitigation refers to the process of reducing greenhouse gas emissions and enhancing sinks to limit global warming and its impacts.

Ocean acidification caused by increased CO2 absorption leads to a decrease in pH, resulting in coral bleaching, reduced fish populations, and potential impacts on marine ecosystems. Increased oxygen levels are not a direct consequence of ocean acidification.

Adaptation refers to the process of adjusting to the impacts of climate change, such as rising sea levels and extreme weather events, by implementing measures to reduce vulnerability and enhance resilience.

Increased Global Temperatures, primarily driven by human activities, are a key factor contributing to the melting of glaciers and ice sheets, resulting in sea level rise.

Climate Action refers to the collective efforts to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, mitigate climate change, and transition to a low-carbon economy.

Climate change is generally associated with negative impacts on human health, including increased heat-related illnesses, spread of vector-borne diseases, and mental health issues. Improved air quality is not a direct consequence of climate change.
