Abstract
Environmental effect of climate change is the release of contaminated substances into the environment that causes adverse change. It can take several forms ranging from chemical substances, noise, heat, light, car pollution etc. climate change comes from both human made sources such as mining, Agricultural, industries, construction among others. Motor vehicle pollution is the most leading cause of climate change across the world. China, japan united states are the world leaders in air pollution. About 400 million metric tons of wastes are generated each year from waste that pollutes the environment. It is of no doubt that the frequent environmental pollution leads to climate changes which adversely have effects on the lives of human. Climate change may refer to a change in the average weather condition. Climate change is caused by factors such as biotic processes, variations in solar radiation, and other human activities that have been identified as primary causes of ongoing climate change, often referred to as global warming. Climate change is also the major cause of environmental pollution. The impact of climate change has led to the various erosion caused either by human activities or natural disaster. Human activities such as sand winning and illegal mining have a negative consequence on our environmental landscape such as erosion. Climate change is also the cause of global warming through the depletion of the ozone layer. The excessive vehicular smoke and industrial smoke has major effects on our environment. This is cause by the depletion of the ozone’s layer. The increasing use of traditional crude to power our thermal plants has the effects of depleting the ozone layers which give rise to global warming which eventually leads to variability in the environment. So the effects of climate change have adverse effects on the environment, economy and the health of people. Numerous factors have been adopted to reduce the effect of climate change and global warming. Among it is as follows. The use of biofuel and bioenergy as an alternative source of energy should be encouraged and used. The use of biofuel has been considered as the most cleaner’s source of energy which is environmentally friendly than our traditional use of crude. In addition, industries and factories should also find alternative source of energy in powering their thermal. If the use of traditional crude is to be used, they should not go beyond certain level as a way of reducing the effects on environmental pollution.
