Climate change and protection
How would you feel about living in a flooded city? This
may sound crazy now, but it could happen earlier than you
might expect. And the reason is called “Climate change”.
The climate change is a long-term change in the weather of
a region (or the whole world) over a particular period of
time. As the climate is changing, consequences for the earth
and people appear. There are different consequences like:
cities could get flooded, as the world gets heated and the ice
on the polar caps melt, the water level rises. If the level
rises cities by the sea (like Sydney) could get flooded. Other
effects are extreme weather situations and different animal
and plant species may extinct.
To fight against the climate change everyone is needed.
Everyone can contribute to stop the climate change and here
are some ways how.
