Responding to climate change
Thoughts on climate change
In recent years, due to increased industrial activity, the concentration of greenhouse gases has increased, and global warming is progressing. If global warming continues without effective countermeasures, the climate will change significantly, causing sea level rise and abnormal weather, which could have a major impact on the habitats of humans and other living things. Furthermore, natural disasters such as large typhoons, heavy rains, and associated floods occur frequently in Japan, and there are concerns that the damage will become more serious as global warming progresses.
