What effects does Climate Change have?

Climate change the greatest challenges of all time. Daily human activities cause climate change. This puts an impact of the rainfall around the globe as the averages somehow change, temperatures of the earth's surface, frequency of heatwaves which may cause dehydration, droughts, floods and other extreme weather conditions and placing our future generations to greatest risk of health effects such as people suffering respiratory  problems. 

How will I be effected?

For all scientists ( meteoroligidts or beaurologists) to study the earth's climate it is difficult to predict what will happen to Australia in the future. Most likely, in 2030 Australia will face:

  • a further 1 degree Celcius of warming in temperatures
  • up to 20 per cent more months of drought
  • up to 25 per cent increase in days of very high or extreme fire danger ( bush fires may be more frequent)
  • increases in severe and strange storms and other extreme weather events.
