human activities such as fossil fuel combustion, deforestation, and industrial processes. The
burning of fossil fuels releases greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide (CO2) and methane
(CH4) into the atmosphere, which trap heat and lead to the warming of the Earth's surface.
This warming manifests in various ways, including rising global temperatures, melting ice
caps and glaciers, and increasing sea levels. These changes disrupt natural ecosystems,
leading to the loss of biodiversity and affecting food and water security. Extreme weather
events like hurricanes, droughts, and floods become more frequent and severe, posing
significant risks to human health, infrastructure, and economies.
