TOPIC
Is Climate Change a result of human activities?
INTRODUCTION
Today humas are directly/ indirectly influencing climate and overall temperature of earth.
Various studies have provided evidences that most of the human activities are resulting in drastic
climatic change. This essay will focus upon exploring whether human activities have resulted in
climate change or not. In this essay various arguments will be provided in order to support this
argument by evaluating various research studies.
MAIN BODY
Causes of climate change
There are various causes because of which climate change is occurring continuously. But
one of the main drivers of climate change is greenhouse effect (Causes of climate change, 2021).
As compared to naturally occurring atmosphere in changes greenhouse is one of the main factors
because of which climate change is occurring and this greenhouse effect is further leading to
global warming because of which overall temperature of earth is also increasing drastically. This
greenhouse effect act as a glass in earth atmosphere that traps sun’s heat on earth because of
which overall temperature of earth is increasing drastically. but one of the main reasons because
of which these greenhouse gases is increasing drastically is due to human activities (Causes of
climate change, 2021).
Due to these human activity’s gases like carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide, and
fluorinated gases are increasing in quantity drastically. Out of all the four gases CO2 is the largest
producer of greenhouse effect as a result due to this, solar radiations are changing, 0.1. C total
temperature of earth is increasing year by year (Causes of climate change, 2021). Some of the
most common activities because of which it is CO2 is increasing are: Buring coal, oil, gases,
cutting down of trees also known as deforestation, increasing livestock farming, increasing
emission of Fluorinated gases.
Effect of human activities on climate
According to an article named ‘What is climate change? A really simple guide’ human
society is one of them most important and biggest reason because of which climate is changing.
Due to these human activities, carbon dioxide emission is increasing, temperature is increasing,
polar ice is melting continuously because of which drastic climatic change is occurring (BBC,
