Do you know how climate change affects us?
At present,
Climate change caused by the global increase in temperatures triggers multiple negative effects on the planet. These effects, in turn, interrelate with each other and increase their violence, putting at risk the species that inhabit the Earth, including the human being.
there is a scientific consensus, almost generalized, around the idea that our mode of production and energy consumption is generating a global climatic alteration, which will cause, in turn, serious impacts both on land and on socioeconomic systems.
The potential impact is enormous, with predictions of lack of potable water, large changes in the conditions for food production and an increase in mortality rates due to floods, storms, droughts and heat waves. In short, climate change is not just an environmental phenomenon but one with profound economic and social consequences. The poorest countries, which are less prepared to face rapid changes, will suffer the worst consequences.
Climate change affects us all.
