What is Climate Change? The emission of greenhouse gases due to several natural and anthropogenic activities results in a change in weather components (precipitation rate, high temperatures) which is called climate change. As a result, excessive heat is absorbed by the Earth’s surface ultimately leading to global warming. The main source for emission of these gases includes human activities like burning of fuels, a-forestation, and release from natural systems like oceans, volcanoes, forest fire, etc. (Yue & Gao, 2018).
