Climate Change vs. Natural Cycles
- Earth's Milankovitch cycles involve variations in orbit, tilt, and wobble, causing periodic ice ages.
- Current rapid warming is human-caused and distinct from slower natural cycles.
Rate of Climate Change
- Natural climate changes, like ice ages, are slow, occurring over centuries.
- Human-caused changes are rapid, happening over decades, posing a significant threat to civilization.
Human-Caused Climate Change
- Data correlates Earth's warming directly to human activities since the Industrial Revolution (anthropogenic changes).
- These include burning fossil fuels, deforestation, industrial processes, and unsustainable agricultural practices.
