Climate Change Effects

Climate Change Effects refer to the impacts of global climate change on Earth’s natural environment and human societies. These include rising temperatures, shifting precipitation patterns, more extreme weather, intensified wildfires, thawing permafrost, desertification, and broader ecosystem disruptions. Some effects may become irreversible if climate tipping points are crossed.
