Challenges of Global Warming in 21th Centaury

Abstract

Global warming, a significant component of climate change, poses unprecedented challenges to ecosystems, human health, and socioeconomic stability in the 21st century. This paper explores the primary challenges associated with global warming, including rising temperatures, extreme weather events, sea-level rise, food and water security, public health implications, and socio-economic impacts. Strategies for mitigation and adaptation are also discussed. The 21st century faces unprecedented challenges posed by global warming, a phenomenon driven largely by human activities. This research explores the multifaceted impacts of rising global temperatures, including intensified heatwaves, melting glaciers, and rising sea levels that threaten coastal communities. It examines the severe consequences for biodiversity, with species loss and habitat destruction becoming increasingly evident. The paper also analyzes the socio-economic repercussions, such as disrupted agriculture, water scarcity, and health crises, which disproportionately affect vulnerable populations. Despite international efforts to mitigate climate change, policy implementation and global cooperation remain significant hurdles. This study underscores the urgent need for innovative solutions, collective action, and sustainable practices to combat the escalating crisis of global warming in the 21st century.
