demonstrates the cause and impact of flooding. Primary factor behind the caue of flood is considered to be climate change. In recent years due to environmental pollution, ozole layer depletion and increasing dependency on energy have resulted in unusual pattern of weather. Climate change is one of the main reason behind water based natural disaster. Climate change causes unusual pattern of weather behaviour such as heavy rain, storm surge, continuous rain for long time and thunderstorms of long time

Climate change is a significant and lasting change in the statistical distribution of weather patterns over periods ranging from decades to millions of years. It may be a change in average weather conditions, or in the distribution of weather around the average conditions (i.e., more or fewer extreme weather events). Climate change is caused by factors such as biotic processes, variations in solar radiation received by Earth, plate tectonics, and volcanic eruptions. Certain human activities have

GEO 215 Week 3 DQ 3 How will the deforestation of the Earth’s tropical forests affect the Earth’s temperature or climate? Explain. Response #1 Rainforest grows to large heights and it is important because a growth in the sunlight through the forest canopy can lead to species of the forest not surviving. with the forests getting direct sunlight and over 2 inches of rain an hour, the area is hot and humid. Deforestation is where less heat is absorbed and less moisture is released. The plant life
