In a nutshell: Ensure adequate processes, financing and other resources to take five main steps: emissions reduction, resilience planning, addressing loss and damage, knowledge-sharing in alternative agricultural techniques, promoting gender equality and human rights across all activities.

Is climate change a social issue?

Climate change is not just a scientific issue, it is just as much a social issue. This article briefly discusses global warming and climate change, their causes, effects on society, future projections and their effects on social development.

Why is climate change a cause for concern?

Past climate changes led to extinction of many species, population migrations, and pronounced changes in the land surface and ocean circulation. The speed of the current climate change is faster than most of the past events, making it more difficult for human societies and the natural world to adapt.

What can stop climate change?

Cut emissions Carbon dioxide and other heat-trapping gases are the main drivers of global warming. To avoid the worst consequences of climate change, we’ll need to reach “net zero” carbon emissions by 2050 or sooner. Net zero means that, on balance, no more carbon is dumped into the atmosphere than is taken out.

What global warming means?

Global warming is the long-term heating of Earth’s climate system observed since the pre-industrial period (between 18) due to human activities, primarily fossil fuel burning, which increases heat-trapping greenhouse gas levels in Earth’s atmosphere.
