Climate change refers to long-term changes in temperature and weather patterns. While it can happen naturally, human activities are speeding it up.
Climate change can lead to health problems such as more respiratory and heart diseases, heat-related illnesses, and the spread of diseases. Extreme weather events like floods and heatwaves can also cause injuries and mental health issues.
The main causes of climate change are greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide and methane. These gases trap heat in the atmosphere, making the earth warmer. They come from activities like burning coal, oil, and cutting down forests.
People most at risk include children, the elderly and those with existing health issues. Additionally, people in poorer communities and developing countries are more vulnerable because they have fewer resources to cope with the changes.
By exploring the information on our website, you’ll gain a clearer understanding of climate change. With this knowledge, you’ll be better equipped to make informed decisions, starting in your own household. You can contribute by using energy-efficient appliances, recycling, and supporting renewable energy. Simple actions - like conserving water and picking up litter while walking or jogging in your neighbourhood - can also help reduce your carbon footprint.
Acting now is crucial to lessen the severe impacts of climate change. By reducing greenhouse gas emissions, we can slow down global warming and protect our environment and health from extreme weather and other risks.
