Climate change refers to the change in the average surface temperature on Earth. The average temp. on our planet has been 15˚C, but the past few years have seen drastic variations in the same, both up and down. Scientists say that temperatures are rising at a faster pace than ever.

There may be several reasons for climate change as per scientific consensus, primarily being the overexploitation of fossil fuels by humans and deforestation. This results in the release of carbon dioxide & other greenhouse gases, such as methane and nitrous oxide, into the atmosphere.
