As the global levels of greenhouse gases rise, the effects of climate change are becoming increasingly visible in the world around us. So, let’s break it down. How is climate change developing? And what can we expect?

As Climate Change leads to the warming of the earth, it is affecting our sea levels and weather patterns, amongst other risks such as wildfires, droughts, food instability, species loss and many more. A changing climate means these risks create a knock-on effect, causing the 'cilimate crisis'.

Levels of CO2 in the atmosphere have always varied and temperatures across the earth have also changed over time. This is clearly represented by the Ice Ages. What is happening now is a very fast increase in CO2 levels over a very short period of time, leading to climate change. Here’s why.
