Effects Of Climate Change In Todays World

OUTLINE

Oceans are warming and sea levels are rising. Crops, animals, and freshwater resources are at risk from longer and more severe droughts. The richness of life on our planet, from polar bears in the Arctic to sea turtles off the coast of Africa, is threatened by climate change.

The locations, animals, and people's way of life that WWF fights to conserve are all fundamentally threatened by climate change. We urgently need to cut carbon pollution and get ready for the effects of global warming, which we are now seeing if we are to appropriately handle this catastrophe. 

WWF strives to:

• Advancing climate change policy
• Work with companies to cut carbon emissions to aid in the adaptation of people 
• Wildlife to a changing climate

RESULT

Climate change has made it harder for both people and wild animals to survive. Droughts that are more frequent and extreme, storms, heat waves, rising sea levels, melting glaciers, and warmer oceans may all directly injure animals, ruin the habitats they rely on for survival, and have a disastrous impact on people's way of life and communities.

Risk to American Cities

Dangerous weather occurrences are increasing in frequency or severity as climate change becomes worse. People in cities and towns all around the United States are now experiencing the effects, which range from coastal storms and flooding to heat waves and wildfires.

IS WWF TAKING ANY ACTIONS

We urgently need to cut carbon pollution and get ready for the effects of global warming, which the world is already experiencing if we are to confront the climate problem effectively. Bringing both local knowledge and global outreach, 

WWF:

• pushes policies to battle climate change
• pushes policies to battle climate change
• American towns will be ready for more severe weather

ASSIMILATION OF CLIMATE CHANGE

We must drastically decrease global carbon emissions if we want to prevent the worst consequences of climate change. The substantial and inevitable effects of carbon emissions, including as rising temperatures, altered precipitation patterns, ocean acidification, sea level rise, and an increase in the severity and frequency of extreme weather events, must also be considered. To assist the environment and people in getting ready for the numerous effects of a changing climate, WWF collaborates with local communities, governments, and others worldwide. 

For this, we:

• By promoting novel agricultural methods, encouraging local weather monitoring, and establishing seed banks.
•  communities in Nepal can become more resilient.
• restore coastal vegetation to protect Caribbean marine turtle nests
• In times of drought, elephants in Thailand have safe access to fresh water.
• Find regions where polar bears can survive for decades on solid Arctic sea ice.

CARE FOR FORESTS

Many of the animals that are most at risk of extinction live in forests. By absorbing carbon dioxide (CO2), a significant source of pollution that contributes to climate change, they help safeguard the environment. By preserving forests, WWF combats climate change. 

For this, we:

• Make sure that international climate change agreements limit deforestation and forest degradation and save animals.
• Work together with nations, especially developing ones, to save forests and improve local residents' standard of living
• Track illegal logging by using satellite imagery and aerial mapping tools.
• Examine how susceptible woods are to climate change and look at how to assist them in adapting.

INFLUENCING POLICY

Government must play a central role to tackle the climate crisis. WWF is an advocate at all levels of government. In the United States, WWF works to advance policies that reduce carbon pollution, support clean energy technologies, prepare for the effects of climate change, and curb deforestation. At international negotiations, WWF encourages the United States to play a constructive role in developing global climate agreements that:

• Reduce carbon pollution significantly in order to prevent the worst effects of climate change.
• Support emerging nations financially so that people and the environment may effectively adapt
• to halt the loss of forests and safeguard the local fauna
• Assist poor nations in making the switch to renewable energy sources like wind and solar
