Climate Change: Introduction:
- Climate change refers to long-term shifts in temperatures and weather patterns.
- These shifts may be natural, but since the 1800s, human activities have been the main driver of climate change, primarily due to the burning of fossil fuels (like coal, oil and gas), which produces heat-trapping gases.
Climate Change & Women:
- Heat waves, droughts, rising sea levels, and extreme storms disproportionately affect women.
- That’s because women are more likely to live in poverty than men, have less access to basic human rights like the ability to freely move and acquire land, and face systematic violence that escalates during periods of instability.
Climate Change For Children:
- One of most important goals is to simplify the information for beginners and children in order to raise a generation aware of the dangers of climate change and make them able to preserve the environment in which they inhabit.
