Imperiled ecosystems
Climate change is increasing pressure on wildlife to adapt to changing habitats—and fast. Many species are seeking out cooler climates and higher altitudes, altering seasonal behaviors, and adjusting traditional migration patterns. These shifts can fundamentally transform entire ecosystems and the intricate webs of life that depend on them. As a result, according to a 2020 study, one-third of all animal and plant species could face extinction by 2070.
Are humans responsible for climate change?
  • When looking at all the evidence, there is a large scientific consensus that humans are the leading cause of climate change. In their latest report, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change stated unequivocally that human activity is the cause of global warming.
  • Natural climate cycles can change the temperature of Earth, but the changes we are seeing are happening at a scale and speed that natural cycles cannot explain. These cycles affect the global temperature for years, or sometimes just months, not the 100 years that we have observed. Meanwhile, longer-term changes like Milankovitch cycles and solar irradiance take thousands and thousands of years.

Conclusions

  • Based on the results we got about our carbon footprints, we discussed different ways to reduce it without losing quality of life.
  • We found out it’s quite hard, as new technologies aren’t always available in the market and are usually really expensive.
  • In our country we can see many direct consequences of climate change: we’ve recently suffered from floods, droughts, we have hotter summers and colder winters (we even had snowfall in our city, which is really unusual!).
