The Root Causes of the Current Environmental Crisis
摘要
A look into both natural and human causes and how they contribute to climate changeClimate change on Earth is conducted. The natural causes examined include tectonic shifts, earthquakes, volcanoes, and solar radiation. The human causes explored include peatlands destruction, burning of fossil fuelsFossil fuels for electricity, transportation, manufacturingManufacturing, commercial and residential usage. Agriculture and mining extraction and processes are also examined. It is observed that the natural phenomena do play roles in influencing the Earth’s climate. However, their contributions are sporadic and relatively minor compared to the persistent and escalating damage caused by human actions.
