Description
Summary:The effects of climate change are one of the most significant and urgent challenges confronting humanity today, which pose a risk to all the aspects of the natural environment. Due to the large quantities of Greenhouse Gases (GHG) emitted in different sectors worldwide, which is difficult to be controlled as it is correlated with the requirements of daily life, it is essential at least to reduce emissions through the implementation of clean or low pollution energy sources utilization. The atmosphere is widely recognized as a very susceptible ecosystem to GHG pollution. However, there is a concerning lack of attention given to this issue by individuals, despite its direct impact on other environmental systems and consequential disruptions to the overall ecosystem. This study aims to provide a comprehensive analysis of the direct impacts of GHG emissions on climate change, specifically focusing on the implications on the environment, economy, and community. Moreover, it is important to assess the effects of these greenhouse gases on the overall ecosystem. This study proposes a set of solutions aimed at mitigating the substantial volumes of GHG emissions. It also explores strategies for managing and regulating GHG production to curb the accumulation of emissions that have occurred over the preceding decades. © 2023 Praise Worthy Prize S.r.l.-All rights reserved.
