Causes of climate change

1) greenhouse effect: It is caused by the dioxide in the environment that traps the Sun's rays and prevents them from breaking up in space, resulting in global warming.







2) fossil fuels: the burning of coal, oil and natural gas produces carbon dioxide and nitrous oxide which are released into the atmosphere, resulting in an increase in emissions (gases-exhaust gases) into the atmosphere.









The following are responsible for the emission of exhaust fumes: a) energy production units and industries.


B) Car exhaust


C) The airplanes






3) Deforestation: (reduction of forests): Deforestation reduces oxygen from trees because oxygen is released and does not contain environmental dioxide from the trees and the hazard is released into the atmosphere, which will be stored in them, showing the greenhouse effect.










4) Cows and goats and sheep produce large amounts of methane in the faith of their food. Methane is one of the gases that contribute to increasing the greenhouse effect.

5) Nitrogen fertilizers: responsible for nitrogen oxide emissions.





6) Fluorine gases are produced by equipment and products in refrigerants in refrigeration equipment such as: air conditioners and heat pumps, as foaming agents, as solvents as well as in fire extinguishers and aerosols, in electronics, in cosmetics as well as in the pharmaceutical industry. Also original as an insulating gas, in high voltage switches, as well as in magnesium and aluminum production.








7) Endogenous factors: volcanoes


8) changes in ocean currents or atmospheric circulation.


9) the Earth's orbit around the Sun


10) Noise pollution





The modern phenomena we face in Greece are:


The greenhouse effect


The ozone hole


The photochemical phenomenon













Tackling climate change







1) Reducing gas emissions helps to slow down the phenomenon. . (CO2 emissions must reach zero level).







2) To standard electric cars instead of natural gas, gasoline and oil. (the same applies to the train, the bus.


3) Production of products from industries and factories naturally with materials and electricity production with energy solar systems.


4) To use a bicycle for our movements


5) Do not throw garbage down


6) We do not pollute the seas


7) We protect the places where wild animals live.


8) We protect endangered species


9) Ascent


10) State governments should take measures to protect the environment


11) Rangers in the forests


12) Farmers should not throw pesticides and their waste into rivers and lakes.


13) No indiscriminate fishing.


14) To buy products whose packaging is recycled


15) Not to drop nukes


16) Do not throw poisonous substances


17) We plant flowers


18) We don't build many factories


19) We do not build buildings with cement or many apartment buildings





Consequences of climate change


1) High temperatures


2) Drought and forest fires.


3)Lack of drinking fresh water (hunger)


4)Availability of fresh water (pollution)


5) floods


6) Sea level rise and coastal areas


7) Loss of biodiversity


8) soil destruction


9) Internal waters


10) Marine environment


11) Melting ice


12) Increase in allergenic substances


13) Extinction of species of life
