Over the past millions of years, climate change has occurred steadily and slowly, allowing ecosystems to adapt. However, since the beginning of the twentieth century, organism extinction rates have risen to more than 100 times the normal rate, i.e. without anthropogenic interference. As a result, we are in the midst of a major biodiversity crisis and maybe even head towards another mass extinction (Mendenhall et al. 2014). It is proposed that by 2050, rapid changes are likely to impact both land and ocean ecosystems.
The earth gets enough space from radiation coming from the sun. To hold Earth’s temperature at an optimal level, greenhouse gases play a crucial role in trapping the solar heat needed to sustain life. This phenomenon is natural, known as the greenhouse effect, and therefore important for sustaining various life forms on Earth. Without the greenhouse effect, Earth’s temperature would be around 33 °C lower than it is today (Morice et al. 2012). Human activities have led to substantial increases in atmospheric GHGs due to deforestation and high fossil‐fuel combustion rates in recent decades. Over the last century, GHG production is the primary cause of global warming. Earth warming ranged from +0.8 to +1.0 °C after 1900, according to published literature (Figure 1.3; den Elzen and Meinshausen 2006). Since 1950, land‐only observations have shown warming trends between +1.1 and +1.3 °C, as land temperatures usually react rapidly in the climate change phase compared to oceans. Various factors affect the Earth’s climate, including solar (warming effect), volcanic eruptions (and their cooling effect) and atmospheric GHG levels (warming effect). Methane‐led carbon dioxide (CO2) has been a significant contributor to global warming since the Industrial Revolution of 1750, with CO2 concentrations rising from 278 parts per million (ppm) in 1960 to nearly double at 401 ppm in 2015 (Levitus et al. 2005). Since 1951, almost 100% of the warming is due to anthropogenic activities. Human activities are now responsible for increasing global temperatures by 1.1 °C, and according to reports, global emissions are already heading towards 1.5 °C or near‐mid‐century targets.
