ACTIVITY 1
1.1 Five Negative Effects of Climate Change
1. Increased Droughts – Prolonged dry periods reduce water availability,
undermining agricultural productivity and threatening food security.
2. Extreme Weather Events – More frequent floods, storms, and heatwaves
damage infrastructure, displace populations, and disrupt livelihoods.
3. Loss of Biodiversity – Rising temperatures and habitat destruction threaten
species survival, destabilizing ecosystems.
4. Rising Sea Levels – Coastal flooding and erosion displace communities, reduce
habitable land, and destroy fertile soils.
5. Health Risks – Changing climates accelerate the spread of diseases such as
malaria and increase heat-related illnesses.
