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.

Industry is the leading contributor to climate change, accounting for approximately 21% of global greenhouse gas emissions. Industrial activities such as manufacturing, mining, and power generation release large amounts of greenhouse gases, particularly carbon dioxide and methane, into the atmosphere.

Global Warming refers to the long-term increase in Earth's average surface temperature due to the accumulation of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. It is a subset of climate change, which encompasses broader changes in climate patterns, including precipitation, wind patterns, and extreme weather events.

Improved crop yields are not a potential consequence of climate change. In fact, climate change is expected to have a negative impact on agriculture, leading to reduced crop yields and food security challenges.

The Greenhouse Effect refers to the process by which certain gases in the atmosphere, such as carbon dioxide and methane, trap heat from the sun, leading to an increase in Earth's temperature. This natural process is essential for maintaining a habitable temperature on Earth, but human activities are enhancing the greenhouse effect, leading to global warming and climate change.

Solar Power is the renewable energy source that is often associated with the production of electricity from sunlight. Solar panels convert sunlight directly into electricity through the photovoltaic effect.

Mitigation Strategies refer to the actions taken to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and mitigate the effects of climate change. These strategies include transitioning to renewable energy sources, improving energy efficiency, reducing deforestation, and implementing sustainable agricultural practices.

China is the largest emitter of greenhouse gases in the world, accounting for approximately 27% of global emissions. This is primarily due to its reliance on coal-fired power plants and its rapid industrial growth.

Climate Adaptation refers to the process of preparing for and adapting to the impacts of climate change. This includes measures such as building sea walls to protect coastal communities from rising sea levels, developing drought-resistant crops, and implementing early warning systems for extreme weather events.

Increasing the use of fossil fuels is not a potential mitigation strategy for climate change. Fossil fuels are a major source of greenhouse gas emissions, and their continued use will contribute to global warming and climate change.

Carbon Capture and Storage (CCS) refers to the process of removing carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and storing it underground or in other geological formations. CCS is a potential mitigation strategy for climate change as it helps to reduce the amount of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere.

Improved Air Quality is not a potential impact of climate change on human health. In fact, climate change is expected to lead to worse air quality due to increased air pollution and wildfires.

Renewable Energy Transition refers to the process of transitioning to a low-carbon economy by replacing fossil fuels with renewable energy sources such as solar, wind, and hydropower.

Increased Dependence on Fossil Fuels is not a potential benefit of transitioning to a low-carbon economy. The goal of a low-carbon economy is to reduce reliance on fossil fuels and transition to renewable energy sources.

The Paris Agreement is the international agreement aimed at reducing greenhouse gas emissions and mitigating climate change. It was adopted in 2015 and sets a goal of limiting global warming to well below 2 degrees Celsius, preferably to 1.5 degrees Celsius, compared to pre-industrial levels.
