Environmental Science Workshop
Topic : Climate change doesn’t
affect all equally.
Objective:–
The biggest story of 21st century can
probably be considered as climate change.
Well this doesn’t need an introduction that
climate change looms as perhaps the
biggest single future threat to humanity
and environment. Whenever It’s about the
climate it mainly divided into two
categories broadly or it has two folded sides:
1)The climate change on the global level and
2)The climate change on the regional level.
Climate impacts are felt globally, but
wherever we are, our ability to cope
depends on what is in our purse. The
wealthy have funds or insurance to cover a
quick retreat to safety, temporary
accommodation, and rebuilding or
relocation costs. But the poor may not be
able to evacuate, may not have reliable
access to food, water, housing or energy,
and insurance may be unavailable or
unaffordable. They may also have been
victims of discriminatory state and
corporate policies that disproportionately
exposed them to risks that could have been
better managed. Many factors beyond our
control – our gender, age, economic status
and location – all influence our ability to
cope. Climate change could affect our
society through impacts on a number of
different social, cultural, and natural
resources. For example, climate change
INFO
could affect human health,
infrastructure, and transportation
systems, as well as energy, food,
and water supplies. Some groups of
people will likely face greater
challenges than others. Climate
change may especially impact
people who live in areas that are
vulnerable to coastal storms,
drought, and sea level rise or
people who live in poverty, older
adults, and 53 immigrant
communities. Similarly, some types
of professions and industries may
face considerable challenges from
climate change. Professions that are
closely linked to weather and
climate, such as outdoor tourism,
commerce, and agriculture, will
likely be especially affected.
Outcome for the
participants-
This workshop would make the
participants capable of
understanding about impacts of the
climate crisis, empowering them
with the knowledge, skills, increase
climate literacy among young
people, values and attitudes needed
to act as agents of change.Each
participants will be provided with a
certificate and abstracts of the
workshop.
