INTRODUCTION :
There are vertical areas and factors where humans are the key source for impacting the
environment in the larger aspect. Humans and environment has been co dependent on each other by
the law of nature but still there have been a disrupted occasions where humans have impacted the
environment for their own gains and this have resulted the climate change in the environment in an
alarming speed and the formulations which have been conducted by humans have organised an
disturbed climate change in the atmosphere which is not good for anyone in the world.
There have been a vast changes which have affected the climate by the human conduct
, this report will cover up all the factors where humans have effected the climate change the reasons
behind these steps that have been taken. Key aspects of the regulations which is impacting the
climate in an speed where it is too risky if it would be continuing at a speed it is having right now.
Humans can be the saviour of this climate and the destroyer as well but in a meanwhile contribution
in disturbing the climate is on a mass level. Furthermore , the visuals and facts of the climate
change on our society is frightening and discouraging.(Clayton., 2020)
CAUSES OF CLIMATE CHANGE :
The influence humans have in their activities has increased the temperature of Earth because of
greenhouse gas which gets produces by burning fossil fuels for getting the electricity transportation
and heat. By the report of IPCC Fourth Assessment Report it quoted that Human influence on the
climate change is clear and this is evident from the greenhouse gas concentrations in the atmosphere
and which observed warming and radiative force in the climate.
This is a vital evidence of the activities of human which is effecting the climate in the atmosphere
one of the major reason is burning the fossil fuels which results in increasing the level of Earth's
atmosphere which is enhancing the natural greenhouse effect increasing the Earth's temperature.
Human activities has been clearly devastating and the result of the activity is amplifying the carbon
dioxide in the atmosphere.(Ostad., 2018.)
Due to the heat trapping gases there is a rise in the amount of energy consumption in world where
humans are becoming and consuming more force of nature through which the atmosphere is having
the carbon dioxide and it clearly states the disturbance in the nature. The main reason of altering the

climate system is the combustion of fossil fuels to produce energy for the benefit of the humans
convenience.
Deforestation , urbanization also reflects the changes in the atmosphere. Burning forest cutting trees
change the natural water cycle of the earth surface which increase the temperature Earth and resist
the nature from behaving as per the needs of the atmosphere instead it reflects back through the
possession and consumptions of the devastating gases and emissions of burning forests. No one can
hide the increasing frequency of extreme weather events in the world. The main challenge of
humans in the 21st century is to adapt the climate change and reduce the activities which are
effecting the climate in an negative way because the symptoms of the climate change is all around
the globe every one is having or getting effected by it like the nature by having extreme weather
conditions suddenly , record breaking temperature rise in certain areas , drought these all are the
stressful aspects to the ecosystem.(Hornsey., 2020)
Some of the events caused by the humans in the climate are already visible to the whole world that
too from the polar region to the dessert all over the globe as it is effecting the biosphere in an large
amount by dying forest which is resulting to the extinction of the species. Rise in the temperature
has been a challenging factor and a threat to the mountain snowpacks which reflects the light of the
burning sun back to the sky and it helps to maintain and reduce the temperature of the earth and by
this the result is downfall in the snowfall and that mean low water supplies which serves many
people all over the world and this would effect the food security of the world as well. On the other
hand Volcanic eruptions have played a vital role in effecting the nature and the environment by the
heating waves all around the surface of the earth which released large amount of carbon dioxide
some of the particles goes into the upper atmosphere of the earth.(Gu,et.al., 2019.)
Lastly , Earth's rotation had a great impact in the climate change which effects the orbit to cause
warmer temperature in the atmosphere.
By the speed humans are on right now it is important to look forwards for the solution of this
emerging climate change problem though , it have been caused by humans only still if humans
would not take steps to this global phenomena then it would be devastating for every human in the
world. Some of the activities has been seen in the world which is providing solution from this
global problem like having the solar energy resource in the world which would reduce the fossils
usage and that would have a great impact in the environment. Limiting the consumption of the
greenhouse gases would be the most vital impact for protecting the environment and mainly the
cause of the action which human is con in doing like expanding the land and reducing the forest

which leads the deforestation and extinction of animals and mammals in the world should be
decreased in a manner where it should not affect the climate any more. (Hoogendoorn,et.al., 2020. )
CONCLUSION :
There have been a lot of human activities which has been able to effect the climate change in
a vast manner and in an alarming speed whether it causes through the consumption of gases to
produce energy or it have a effect the deforestation human do for the urbanisation , it reveals a lot of
factors where humans have been successful enough to effect the climate as per their needs and
wants for the society but eventually it do reflects back from the eruption of the effect that human
have caused and nature has its own ways for giving the information about the changes in the climate
atmosphere through droughts , tsunami and many other ways.
Humans have to think about the positive changes which should reflect back in the society for the
betterment of the environment and to control the actual temperature of the earth surface which has
been enhancing by the devastating activities for the improper needs of the humans which is surely
and effectively problematic for every single person living throughout the world because if this
problem would not be solved then instead of the extinction of the animals we would be free enough
for seeing the extinction of humans itself.
This global phenomenon is having a huge impact on everyone in the society all over the world
which would be devastate the whole environment. Therefore humans should follow up for the
solutions which would be life saving for every species on the surface of the earth.
