53rd Earth Day: Climate Change Impact On Man, Nature And Environment

As we enter the 53rd year of Earth Day also known as the International Mother Earth Day with the theme “Invest In Our Planet” for the year 2022, let’s find out the impact of Climate Change on Man, Nature & Environment
Only 15% of land, 21% of freshwater, 8% of ocean areas are protected as the World observes the 53rd year of Earth Day with the theme Invest In Our Planet. Protection of 30-50% of Earth’s land, freshwater and ocean should be the goal.
Limiting of Global Warming by 1.5ºC requires reduction of Greenhouse Gas Emissions by 43% by 2030 for a sustainable Earth in 2050
Climate Change effects not just the global environment, but global economy as well having a bearing on activities such as agriculture, forestry, fisheries, etc. sectors
Impact on Agriculture
Extreme temperatures reduce yields of desired crops while also resulting in the drought, crop-failures and decline in long-term agricultural productivity as agriculture is vulnerable to climate change
On the 53rd International Mother Earth Day let’s introspect the impact of climate change on cities and effects of global warming on nature and human infrastructure
Explore the critical impact of climate change on the energy needs as the world, especially Asian countries experience hotter climate with decrease in the precipitation levels
Climate Change impacts the availability of food, and food quality due to change in the weather patterns, precipitation and decline in ground water tables
Impact on Food
Emission of carbon dioxide and greenhouse gases have mounted the temperature resulting in the melting of glaciers in the poles and increasing the sea levels impacting the marine life and ecosystem
Impact on Health
The theme ‘Invest in Our Planet’ of Earth Day 2022 should open our eyes to the impact the climate change has on the health ecosystem across the world to prepare for a better and safe future
Know more about how mounting temperatures are impacting the Himalaya region resulting in the glacier melting leading to severe consequences
Explore the severity and challenges global warming has on availability of water - the lifeline of all civilizations, especially in the Asian regions
Impact on Workforce
Climate Change has large impact on the livelihood of people as it disrupts entire economic activity cutting across diverse sectors and boarders.
Explore the impact of rising temperatures on the human habitation in islands and mountains which are faced with severe risks of glacier melting and fresh water depletion
