Human activities increasingly emit greenhouse gases, which build up in the atmosphere and warm the climate and lead to many changes around the world: in the atmosphere, on land and in the oceans. Many of these changes have positively and negatively affect people, society and the environment, including plants and animals. Major greenhouse gases remain in the atmosphere for dozens (and even hundreds) of years, so their warming effects on the climate last for a long time, affecting both present and future generations. Climate change encompasses not only global warming, i.e. the rising average temperature, but also extreme weather events, shifting wildlife populations and habitats, rising seas and various other impacts. Warmer temperatures mean that there are more and more insects that spread diseases and that heat waves are getting more lethal to humans. Droughts and floods resulting from climate change also pose great threats to agriculture. A recent study shows that for every rise of one degree Celsius crop yields will go down 3 to 7 percent, severely affecting food insecurity.

It is a common misconception that greenhouse gases only have detrimental effects on the Earth and our world would be a much better place without them. In fact, they play an indispensable role in our ecology. The Earth’s most abundant greenhouse gases include carbon dioxide, methane, ozone, CFCs and water vapour, all of which can be found near the Earth surface. They absorb radiation, heating up the atmosphere. For example, carbon dioxide and water vapour take in infrared radiations coming to the earth. At the same time, they partly reflect these infrared radiations back to the earth’s surface. The process of radiation absorption maintains the temperature of the Earth in a way that makes the green planet habitable for mankind. Without these greenhouse gases and their service, the Earth’s temperature would fall drastically and become uninhabitable.
