Earth’s climate system is a complex interplay of factors that work together to maintain a relatively stable temperature range. The greenhouse effect, driven by gases like carbon dioxide and methane, traps heat and keeps the planet warm enough to support life.
However, human activities have altered this balance, leading to climate change and its associated impacts. Understanding and addressing these changes is crucial for preserving the delicate equilibrium that has allowed life to thrive for millions of years.
