  Impact of climate change on agriculture Agriculture is the most significant sector in Sub-Saharan Africa, but climate change and weather data are expected to negatively influence it. Climate change would undoubtedly result in significant welfare losses, particularly for smallholders whose primary source of income is agriculture.  Climate extremes are already impacting social, economic, and environmental systems, while future changes resulting from further warming will pose new concerns. The study's findings show that annual rainfall variability has a negative influence on the combined riskiness of all crop portfolios at a household level, but seasonal rainfall variation has a less consistent impact. Even when intercrop relationships are considered, farmers are more inclined to choose less hazardous crops with lower returns. Impacts on pests and pathogens Climate change will likely increase the populations and ranges of some agricultural pests and water-borne pathoge...

  According to an international survey, climate change has scared citizens, yet most think they are already doing more to protect the environment than anyone else, even their government, and very few are willing to make big lifestyle adjustments. Citizens have conflicting feelings about how their societies have dealt with climate change, and many are skeptical of international initiatives to avert a worldwide environmental disaster. The study, conducted in the spring before the summer season, brought additional wildfires, droughts, floods, and stronger-than-usual storms showing a growing sense of personal vulnerability from climate change amongst those polled.

Young adults In many public polled, young individuals, who have been at the vanguard of some of the most visible weather da...
