Riassunto

Long-term changes in temperature and weather patterns are referred to as climate change. These changes could be due to natural causes such as oscillations in the solar cycle. However, human activities are the primary cause of climate change owing to the burning of fossil fuels such as gas, coal and oil. The combustion of fossil fuels produces greenhouse gas emissions, which act like a blanket wrapped around the Earth, trapping the sun's heat and raising the temperature of Earth. Methane and carbon dioxide are the two examples of greenhouse gas emissions that contribute to climate change. Adaptation allows humans to prepare for some of the most expected repercussions of climate change by limiting their negative effects on ecosystems and human well-being. It involves better disaster planning, strengthening water conservation programs, and building early warning systems for extreme heat events. This book provides comprehensive insights on the adaptation and impacts of climate change. It will provide comprehensive knowledge to the readers.
