Climate Change

Our vision is a world where individuals and communities understand the impacts of their actions on the environment and are empowered to make sustainable choices that preserve the natural world for future generations, while also addressing the pressing issue of climate change, mitigate its effects and adapt to its unavoidable impacts.

# Why Climate Change Comes Main Priority Of The JEEVAN DARSHAN FOUNDATION :-

  • The Earth’s average surface temperature has risen by about 1.8 degrees Fahrenheit (1 degree Celsius) since the late 1800s, with about two-thirds of the warming occurring since 1980.
  • The five warmest years on record have all occurred since 2010.
  • The concentration of carbon dioxide in the Earth’s atmosphere, which is a major contributor to global warming, has risen by about 40% since the Industrial Revolution began in the 1700s.
  • Sea levels have risen by about 8 inches (21 centimeters) since 1880, with almost half of that rise occurring in the last 25 years.
  • The Arctic sea ice is melting at a rapid rate, with the summer sea ice shrinking by 13.4% per decade since 1979.
  • The frequency and intensity of heat waves, droughts, and heavy rainfall events have all increased in many parts of the world.
  • Some species of plants and animals are shifting their ranges and migration patterns in response to changing temperatures and rainfall patterns.
  • Climate change destabilises the Earth’s temperature equilibrium and has far-reaching effects on human beings and the environment. A distinction is made between direct and indirect effects of climate change.
  • . During the course of global warming, the energy balance and thus the temperature of the earth change, due to the increased concentration of greenhouse gases, which has a significant impact on humans and the environment.
