The Energy Information Administration predicts that China’s emissions will grow at a remarkable 4.2% per year between 1990 and 2030 a growth rate that is higher than any other emitter. The climate problem in China is very serious; if China’s trend toward producing greenhouse gases still increases in the future‚ Earth’s environment will be further stressed and other nations’ efforts to reduce greenhouse gases will be cancelled out.

Climate Change and Biodiversity How Global Warming Affects the Life on Earth Climate change is the changing of patterns in climate‚ and the most obvious changes are usually the average temperature and the average precipitation. Climate change will also affect the timing of seasons‚ as well as causing extreme events to happen‚ for example‚ drought‚ fire‚ hurricane‚ etc. Since climate is defined as a certain region’s long term atmospheric conditions‚ the change of climate will have a great impact

1 Climate Change Global climate change is one of the most urgent environmental problems we have to acknowledge today. The world‚ as we have observed and recorded data over the last several decades‚ is in the midst of an unexpected alteration. Temperature in the winter season is changing more than other seasons and mid to high latitude positions are showing comparatively bigger changes than those of low latitudes. The water vapor‚ carbon dioxide‚ ozone and many other chemical compounds in the atmosphere

“Climate change is one of the greatest threats of our time”(Government of Canada). Climate change is a shift in weather condition that is long-term. Human activities like burning fossil fuels release carbon into the atmosphere causing a buildup of greenhouse gases. The burning of fossil fuels currently accounts for about 70-90 % of human emissions that are greenhouse gases (Government of Canada). Greenhouse gas acts as a blanket surrounding the earth causing the earth to heat up and affect wind patterns

Climate- India The Climate of India is an interesting subject of study - it is just as varied as everything else about India- its people‚ its culture‚ its topography. India is a composite in many ways - and at the core of this composite trait lies its vast and varied topography. From snow capped mountains to clear streams and vast oceans‚ from a desert habitat to lush green tropical forests‚ large plain lands‚ plateaus and mountains - we have it all and even more. India experiences 4 seasons: The
