Climate Change and Its Impact

The video explains Earth's climate balance and how it is affected by natural and human-induced changes. It highlights the role of greenhouse gases in warming the planet and the resulting consequences, such as melting glaciers and stronger storms. The video emphasizes the need for reducing greenhouse gas emissions and preparing for climate change impacts. It concludes with a call for global cooperation, referencing an upcoming meeting in Paris to address these issues.

What maintains the Earth's perfect temperature for life?

• The constant heat from the sun

• The Earth's magnetic field

• The balance between the sun's heat and Earth's cooling

• The rotation of the Earth

Which of the following is NOT a cause of natural climate change?

• Changes in the sun's energy

• Human industrial activities

• Changes in Earth's orbit

• Volcanic eruptions

How do greenhouse gases affect Earth's temperature?

• They cool the Earth by reflecting sunlight

• They cause the Earth to spin faster

• They trap heat from the sun, warming the Earth

• They have no effect on Earth's temperature

• Increasing the use of renewable energy

• Reducing industrial activities

• Planting more trees

• Building more structures and burning fossil fuels

Which of the following is NOT a result of increased greenhouse gases?

• Decreased volcanic activity

• Stronger storms

• Rising sea levels

• Melting glaciers

What is a major consequence of climate change on the environment?

• Decreased global temperatures

• Rising sea levels and stronger storms

• Stable weather patterns

• Increased biodiversity

What should humans do to reduce the impact of climate change?

• Continue current industrial practices

• Change lifestyles to reduce emissions

• Ignore climate change warnings

• Increase greenhouse gas emissions

What is the purpose of the international meeting in Paris?

• To discuss economic growth

• To discuss global trade agreements

• To plan for space exploration

• To decide how countries can help mitigate climate change

What is the ultimate goal of the international efforts against climate change?

• To stop all industrial activities

• To restore Earth's climate balance
