Climate Change Evidence Presentation

Climate change refers to long-term shifts in temperatures and weather patterns caused by both natural and human factors, affecting ecosystems and sea levels. Evidence from ice cores and tree rings indicates significant historical climate changes, while current data shows a global temperature rise of over 1°C since 1880 and alarming rates of ice melting and sea level rise. Strong evidence from both past and present underscores the urgent need for action to mitigate human impacts on climate.

Evaluating Evidence of Climate

Change
From Past to Present
What is Climate Change?

• Long-term shifts in temperatures and weather


patterns.
• Caused by natural and human factors.
• Impacts ecosystems, weather, sea levels, and
more.
Past Evidence of Climate Change

• Ice cores show CO2 levels and temperature


data from thousands of years ago.
• Tree rings reveal rainfall and temperature
variations.
Present Evidence: Rising
Temperatures

• Global temperature rise by over 1°C since


1880.
• Most of the warming occurred in the past 40
years.
Melting Ice and Rising Seas

• Glaciers and Arctic ice melting at alarming


rates.
• Sea levels have risen about 8 inches in the last
century.
Temperature Trends Over Time

Conclusion

• Climate change is supported by strong


evidence from past and present.
• Urgent action is needed to address human
impacts.
• Science continues to track and predict future
changes.
