Climate change and awareness program

1. Climate Change and Awareness Program An illustrated overview of causes, effects, and global initiatives. Visual theme: Creative and educational illustrations for better understanding.

2. Introduction to Climate Change Climate change is the long-term alteration of Earth’s temperature and weather patterns. It is primarily caused by greenhouse gases emitted from burning fossil fuels, deforestation, and industrial activities. Global temperature rise by over 1.2°C has triggered major environmental shifts worldwide. Image Explanation: Illustration shows Earth surrounded by a heat layer representing greenhouse gases. It highlights the warming effect and imbalance caused by human activities on the atmosphere.

3. Causes of Climate Change 1. Burning fossil fuels like coal and oil releases CO₂ and methane. 2. Deforestation reduces natural carbon absorption. 3. Industrial waste and agriculture release harmful gases. 4. Transportation and energy use contribute to emissions. Image Explanation: Illustration depicts factories, vehicles, and chopped forests emitting smoke and gases, symbolizing human activities causing global warming.

4. Effects on Environment and Life 1. Melting glaciers and rising sea levels. 2. Unpredictable weather events like droughts and floods. 3. Decline in wildlife populations and crop productivity. 4. Increased risk to human health and habitats. Image Explanation: Illustration shows melting ice caps, dry cracked land, and flooded cities. Animals and humans appear affected, showing the broad impact of climate change on life and ecosystems.

5. Awareness and Mitigation Programs 1. Paris Agreement (2015) – commitment to limit global warming. 2. Promoting renewable energy (solar, wind, hydro). 3. Community programs on recycling and green energy. 4. Environmental education and student awareness drives. Image Explanation: Illustration features people planting trees, solar panels, and wind turbines with slogans like 'Go Green' and 'Save Earth,' representing joint efforts for sustainability.

6. Conclusion and Call to Action Climate change affects every corner of the planet. Immediate action is necessary through eco-friendly habits, renewable energy adoption, and environmental education. Together, small actions can lead to a sustainable and balanced future for all. Image Explanation: Illustration shows people holding the Earth, surrounded by greenery and clean air, symbolizing unity and hope for a cleaner, safer world.
