Carbon Dioxide (CO2) is the primary greenhouse gas responsible for climate change. It is released into the atmosphere through human activities such as burning fossil fuels, deforestation, and industrial processes.

Fossil Fuels (coal, oil, and natural gas) are non-renewable resources because they are formed from the remains of ancient plants and animals over millions of years and cannot be replenished at a rate comparable to their consumption.

Habitat Destruction is the term used to describe the loss of biodiversity due to human activities such as deforestation, urbanization, and agricultural expansion, which result in the destruction of natural habitats and the displacement of species.

Logging is a major cause of deforestation, as trees are harvested for timber, paper, and other products. Unsustainable logging practices can lead to the loss of large areas of forest and the degradation of ecosystems.

Deforestation is the term used to describe the process of converting land from forest to non-forest uses, such as agriculture, urbanization, or mining. It results in the loss of forest cover and the associated biodiversity.

Climate change has a wide range of consequences, including rising sea levels due to thermal expansion and melting glaciers, more frequent and intense extreme weather events such as hurricanes and heat waves, and ocean acidification caused by the absorption of carbon dioxide by the oceans.

Reforestation is the term used to describe the process of planting trees in areas where they have been lost or degraded, with the aim of restoring forest cover and ecosystem function.

Agriculture, transportation, and industry are all major sources of greenhouse gas emissions. Agriculture contributes through activities such as livestock production and deforestation, transportation through the burning of fossil fuels, and industry through the use of energy and the production of goods.

Afforestation is the term used to describe the process of planting trees in areas where there were no trees before, typically with the aim of creating new forests or restoring degraded land.

Resource depletion can lead to a range of consequences, including environmental degradation, economic instability, and social conflict. Environmental degradation occurs when natural resources are used at a rate that exceeds their ability to replenish, leading to pollution, deforestation, and loss of biodiversity. Economic instability can result from the scarcity of resources and the associated price increases. Social conflict can arise when different groups compete for access to scarce resources.

Resource Conservation is the term used to describe the process of reducing the use of resources and materials in order to minimize their depletion and the associated environmental and social impacts.

Nuclear Energy is not a renewable energy source because it relies on the use of uranium, which is a finite resource. While nuclear energy does not produce greenhouse gases during operation, it does generate radioactive waste that requires careful management and disposal.

Resource Sustainability is the term used to describe the process of using resources in a manner that ensures their availability for future generations. This involves managing resources wisely, reducing waste, and promoting the use of renewable resources.

Climate change adaptation faces a range of challenges, including technological limitations in developing effective adaptation strategies, financial constraints in implementing these strategies, and political instability that can hinder cooperation and resource allocation.

Reducing greenhouse gas emissions involves a combination of strategies, including Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) to remove CO2 from the atmosphere, transitioning to renewable energy sources, and improving energy efficiency to reduce the demand for fossil fuels.
