Explanation: 

Detailed explanation-1: -Humans impact the physical environment in many ways: overpopulation, pollution, burning fossil fuels, and deforestation. Changes like these have triggered climate change, soil erosion, poor air quality, and undrinkable water.

Detailed explanation-2: -Fossil fuels – coal, oil and gas – are by far the largest contributor to global climate change, accounting for over 75 per cent of global greenhouse gas emissions and nearly 90 per cent of all carbon dioxide emissions. As greenhouse gas emissions blanket the Earth, they trap the sun’s heat.

Detailed explanation-3: -Burning fossil fuels changes the climate more than any other human activity.

Detailed explanation-4: -Natural changes to the climate The leading cause of climate change is human activity and the release of greenhouse gases. However, there are lots of natural causes that also lead to changes in the climate system. Natural cycles can cause the climate to alternate between warming and cooling.

Detailed explanation-5: -Agriculture. Deforestation. Overpopulation & Overconsumption. Plastic Production. Emission of Carbon Dioxide and Other Greenhouse Gases. Destruction of the Reefs. Production of Black Carbon. More items
