CLIMATE CHANGE IMPACTS

Climate change refers to the long term  shifts in temperatures and weather patterns also it can also be  the gradual change in all the interconnected weather elements. Climate change are interelated in different sectors in our society. Many problems and solutions are  well known to us,experts believe that there is still time that can help avoid the worst negative of it all.

There are various impacts that are a result of climate change.

1.REDUCTION OF FOOD SUPPLY 

Food supplies depends heavily on weather conditions and climate change, however farmers have tried to develop some new ways in solving this problems but so e techniques are hard to implement because of increased temperature, water crisis and even the cost of modern technologies.

2.HUMAN HEALTH

 Changes in weather and climate can put life at risk heat being one of the most deadly phenomena.The most vulnerable groups the children,the elderly, people with preexisting health conditions and people with lower income are at even in higher risk because of compounding factors from climate change.

3. POOR INFRASTRUCTURE DEVELOPMENT

Many communities have infrastructure that was designed without future climate in mind extreme weather events that bring heavy rain,flood,wind, snow or temperature changes can stress existing structures and facilities.

4. INCREASED DROUGHT

Climate change is changing water availability making it scarcer in more regions. Water shortage due to climate change in various regions is leading to an increased risk of agricultural droughts affecting crops. Deserts are expanding, reducing land for growing food. Many people now face the  threat of not have enough water on a daily basis.

5.lOSS OF SPECIES

Climate change poses risks to the survival for many species  in land and in the ocean. One million species are at risk of becoming extinct with in the next few decades. Forest fires, extreme weather and disease are among many threats related to the climate change. Some species will be able to relocate and survive but others will not.
