Climate Change

5. The primary greenhouse gas responsible for global warming.
6. Practices related to farming and livestock that can contribute to greenhouse gas emissions and land degradation.
8. The release of greenhouse gases from human activities, such as burning fossil fuels.
11. A warm ocean current that influences climate in the North Atlantic.
12. Efforts taken to address climate change through policy, education, and advocacy.
14. A potent greenhouse gas released during natural processes, as well as through human activities like agriculture and waste management.
15. The process by which certain gases trap heat in the Earth's atmosphere, leading to global warming.

1. The clearing of forests, which reduces the Earth's capacity to absorb carbon dioxide and contributes to climate change.
2. Practices that meet present needs without compromising the ability of future generations to meet their own needs.
3. The total amount of greenhouse gases emitted directly or indirectly by an individual, organization, or product.
4. Non-renewable energy sources formed from ancient organic matter, like coal, oil, and natural gas.
7. Power sources that do not contribute to greenhouse gas emissions, such as solar or wind power.
9. The changing patterns of weather and daylight throughout the year due to the tilt of the Earth's axis.
10. Eruptions release gases and particles that can temporarily influence global temperatures.
13. A climate pattern characterized by warmer-than-usual ocean temperatures in the equatorial Pacific.
