Human activities, such as the burning of fossil fuels, are the primary cause of climate change.

Climate change can affect cultural landscapes in a variety of ways, including causing sea levels to rise, leading to more extreme weather events, and changing the temperature and precipitation patterns.

The Great Barrier Reef is a cultural landscape that is threatened by climate change. Rising sea temperatures are causing coral bleaching and death, which is damaging the reef.

To protect cultural landscapes from the impacts of climate change, we need to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, implement adaptation measures to protect cultural landscapes from the impacts of climate change, and raise awareness of the threats posed by climate change to cultural landscapes.

Art conservators play a vital role in protecting cultural landscapes from the impacts of climate change. They can assess the risks posed by climate change to cultural landscapes, develop and implement conservation strategies to protect cultural landscapes from the impacts of climate change, and educate the public about the threats posed by climate change to cultural landscapes.
