Which of the following is a direct result of climate change making the Earth warmer?
Climate change primarily affects only weather patterns and does not significantly impact ecosystems or human infrastructure.
Match the following formations on Earth with their primary risks from climate change:
Deserts
Oceans
Forests
Mountains
Extreme heat and water scarcity
Glacier loss and increased landslides
Increased drought and wildfires
Sea level rise and acidification
Which of the following is NOT a primary risk faced by forests due to climate change?
Decreasing temperatures in desert regions are a significant concern related to climate change.
Match each impact area with its primary consequence for food sources:
Food Security
Ecosystem Services
Agriculture
Fisheries
Fishery collapse and reduced seafood availability
Higher food prices and malnutrition
Loss of pest control and water regulation
Crop failures and soil loss
Which of the following is NOT a direct impact of climate change on human health?
Extreme weather events caused by climate change only affect low-income countries, while wealthier nations are generally immune.
Match each economic and infrastructure challenge with its climate change driver:
Coastal erosion
Threats to agriculture
Water scarcity
Damage to infrastructure
Extreme heat, floods, and droughts
Prolonged droughts and altered rainfall patterns
Rising sea levels and stronger storms
Floods, storms, and heatwaves
Which of the following actions would NOT help in mitigating the effects of climate change?
Climate change only affects future generations, and its impacts are not currently visible.
Match the effect of climate change with its consequence:
Ocean acidification
Warmer temperatures
Sea level rise
Extreme weather events
Increased rates of heat stroke
Harm to marine life
Impact on crop yields
Flooding of coastal areas
What is a significant consequence of melting permafrost in Arctic regions due to climate change?
Maintaining biodiversity has no significant effect on an ecosystem's ability to withstand climate changes.
Match the region/area with their climate change vulnerability:
Cryosphere
Mountain glaciers
Coastal formations
Deserts
Threatened by rising sea levels
Reduced rainfall and increased evaporation
Reduction in water supplies for millions
Loss of polar and alpine ice
A disruption of agricultural production caused by climate-driven ecosystem collapse can directly result in which of the following?
The effects of climate change are equally distributed around the world, with all regions experiencing the same level of impact.
Match the climate change effects on human health with their outcomes:
Extreme weather events
Increased heat waves
Water shortages
Crop failures
Less food available leading to hunger
Difficulty finding clean drinking water
More heat-related illnesses and dehydration
Injuries and health consequences
Which of the following statements accurately describes the impact of climate change on marine biodiversity?
The biocrusts that stabilize desert soils are highly resilient to extreme heat, mitigating the risk of desertification.
Match the climate impact on desert regions with the corresponding consequences:
Temperature increases
Ecosystem fragility
Water scarcity
Loss of agricultural land at desert edges
Highest rates of warming and heat-related stress on wildlife
Threatens water supplies for both people and wildlife
What is the primary reason why shifting weather patterns are dangerous for Earth’s plant and animal ranges?
Rising temperatures have no effect on where fish can live and find food.
Read the following statements carefully: Statement I: Reduced marine productivity is not a consequence of climate change. Statement II: Climate change does not affect the timing of seasonal events. Statement III: Natural barriers do not prevent species from migrating due to climate change. Which of the above Statement(s) is/are correct:
How does climate change affect the oceans and what are the consequences of ocean acidification?
What structures and systems suffer, that could put lives at risk, during climate change?
