GLOBAL WARMING AND ITS EFFECTS

Abstract

This research examines the causes and effects of climate change, emphasizing the role of human activities such as fossil fuel consumption, deforestation, and industrial pollution. It explores the severe consequences of environmental degradation, including global warming, biodiversity loss, and the proliferation of diseases. By synthesizing findings from credible sources, the study highlights the disproportionate impact of pollution on vulnerable populations, such as those in developing countries like Honduras, where air pollution and inadequate infrastructure exacerbate health risks. The research underscores the urgency of mitigating climate change through collective action, including reducing carbon emissions, reforestation, and promoting sustainable practices. It also addresses the role of education and individual responsibility in fostering environmental awareness and inspiring change. Despite the global challenges posed by climate change, the study argues that human innovation and collaboration can lead to effective solutions, ensuring a healthier and more sustainable future for all. By identifying actionable strategies and emphasizing the importance of empathy and interdependence, this paper aims to contribute to the growing discourse on environmental protection and climate resilience.
