Global climate change is a climate change that is caused
globally by the release of fuels in the atmosphere. Fuels
(gases) such as carbon dioxide, sulphur dioxide and lead
compounds etc are into continuous release to atmosphere as a
result of human activities, such human activities include
modernilisation and industrialization which continuously
reduces the number of green houses gas (GHG) emissions to
the atmosphere and this consequently bring about the global
climate change. As a result of its effect, numerous
programs, seminars and awareness campaigns were carried out
aimed at bringing about awareness to public on the causes
effect and control of this global climate change. The use of
biology education can equally be used as a tool for
combating global climate change where human activities like
poor agricultural practice, deforestation, industrialization
etc. would be discussed as causes for the release of gases
to the atmosphere. The effects like Carbon dioxide and green
house effects, ozone depletion effect and acid rain effects
would equally be discussed as possible consequences for
global climate change. Then use of afforestation programme,
good agricultural practices, use of predators like bats and
lizards and plant conservation through botanic gardening
would serve as solution to global climate change.
