Description: 

Climate change has become a widespread topic in recent years. This a problem that resulted from the emission of greenhouse gases that affect our environment. Therefore, it raises questions on whether the problem is caused by human activities or it’s just a part of nature’s cycle. According to NASA, the Earth average temperature has increased about 1 degree Fahrenheit during the 20th century (Global Climate Change: Effects). That might sound like it isn’t a great change, but its effects on our environment have proven otherwise. The impacts of this small change in the temperature are many, from longer drought seasons and heat waves to more aggressive hurricanes (Global Climate Change: Effects). Furthermore, the increase in the earth’s average temperature created a variety of problems that left a lasting scar on our environment (Global Climate Change: Effects).Climate change has affected many aspects of our planet. One aspect that has been greatly affected by climate change is the weather. In Romania, for instance, extreme weather events have multiplied since 2002. By increasing the concentration of the greenhouse gases, we are increasing the amount of heat that is in our atmosphere. Solutions: wind power, green buildings, methane leaks. Climate change is a problem that is facing our planet and it has progressed a lot after the industrial revolution. The emission of greenhouse gases has accelerated the progress of climate change and made our weather more intense. Dr. Wuebbles said “We need to transfer our energy to renewable energy. Also, one of the things we must do is to adapt to the changes that occurred and will occur. We need to prevent any future changes from happening, but adaptation is a major thing we need to do”
