CLIMATE CHANGES: CAUSES AND IMPACT

Journal Title: Current Trends in Natural Sciences - Year 2013, Vol 2, Issue 3

Abstract

Present brings several environmental problems for people. Many of these are closely related, but by far the most important problem is the climate change. In the course of Earth evolution, climate has changed many times, sometimes dramatically. Warmer eras always replaced and were in turn replaced by glacial ones. However, the climate of the past almost ten thousand years has been very stable. During this period human civilization has also developed. In the past nearly 100 years - since the beginning of industrialization - the global average temperature has increased by approx. 0.6 ° C (after IPCC (Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change)), faster than at any time in the last 1000 years.
