Climate change refers to changes in global climate patterns. Our planet has seen changes in climate patterns over the centuries. However, changes since the middle of the 20th century are more clearly visible. There has been a huge increase in the proportion of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, due to which there have been many major changes in the climate of the earth.
In addition, several natural forces such as solar radiation, changes in Earth’s orbit, and volcanic eruptions have influenced Earth’s climatic conditions over the centuries.
There are many factors that have been responsible for bringing changes in the weather in the past. These include variations in solar energy reaching the Earth, volcanic eruptions, orbital changes, and plate tectonics. Apart from this, many human activities have also been responsible for bringing changes in the climatic conditions in the last few decades.
The recent change in climate conditions is also known as global warming.
Even slight changes in the Earth’s orbit lead to changes in the seasonal distribution of sunlight over the Earth’s surface. There are three types of orbital changes – changes in the eccentricity of the earth, precession of the earth’s axis and changes in the tilt angle of the earth’s axis while rotating on the earth’s axis, etc. Together these three have a huge impact on the climate.
The movement of tectonic plates changes the shape of land and oceans on Earth, as well as changing the topography over a period of millions of years. Due to this the global climatic conditions also change.
The weather condition is getting worse every day. Due to the natural factors, the negative effect on the climate cannot be controlled, but such human activities, which are the cause of air, land and water pollution and which have a negative effect on the climate, must be banned. May go. Each one of us should do our bit to control this global problem.
