Introduction
These days, we observed how our earth changes especially our climate. We experience different types of disasters such as; floods, volcanic eruptions, landslides, and typhoons. On average, about 20 tropical cyclone enters Philippine water each year, with 8 or 9 making landfall. The Global Climate Risk Index listed the Philippines rank one of the most affected countries by climate change this is because of its geography located in the western Pacific Ocean. The country also lacks natural barriers; as a collection of more than 7000 islands, there is almost nothing standing between them and the sea. Due to these disasters, many people have lost their livelihoods, especially the farmers. Farmers are an integral part of our societies and, consequently, the effects of climate change on farmers can threaten food supplies and security as well as increase volatility in global food prices. The most vulnerable people to climate change are women, children, people with disabilities, and old people. Many trees and infrastructure were destroyed and many lives were lost. Most of the causes of climate change are man-made such as illegal logging, burning of plastic, and abuse of using fossil fuels. Their apathy and neglect can lead to more dangerous events. Giving importance and seriousness to this kind of study is a must because if we continue neglecting it there is no future for the next generation.
Description
Climate change is a change in the usual weather found in a place. This is could be a change in how much rain a place usually gets in a year. Or it could be a change in a place's usual temperature for a month or season. Climate change is also a change in Earth's climate. This could be a change in Earth's usual temperature. Or it could be a change in where rain and snow usually fall on Earth. Weather can change in just a few hours. Climate takes hundreds or even millions of years to change.
However, In our current situation, climate change is uncontrollably resulting in many disastrous events because people keep underestimating it. That is why The Climate Reality Project Philippines is a non-profit organization dedicated to spreading the news on how we can prevent climate change and take action against it. Their goal is to make people unite together so we can prevent such situations where our earth is constantly hurting because of our doings. Sharing this information from one person to another and taking a part in it is such a big help to save our home earth.
