ABSTRACT: Present-day climate change includes both global warming, the ongoing increase in global average temperatureand its wider effects on Earth’s climate system. Climate change in a broader sense also includes previous long-term changes to Earth’s climate. The current rise in global temperatures is driven by human activities, Fossil fuels are being continuously used to produce electricity. The burning of these fuels produces gases like carbon dioxide, methane and nitrous oxides which lead to global warming. Deforestation is also leading to warmer temperatures. The hazard of global warming is continuously causing major damage to the Earth’s environment, Because of the treacherous effects of global warming, some solutions must be devised. Its causes and hazards and presents some solutions to solve this hot issue. So, alternative energy sources (solar, wind, hydro, geothermal, biomass) need to be seriously pursued. Finding and using renewable sources of energy is one the methods to combat the ever increasing global warming effectively.
