The 10 possible causes of climate change are as follows:
- Emission of greenhouse gases into the atmosphere
- Deforestation for human settlements
- The melting of permafrost releases tons of trapped greenhouse gases which further speeds up the melting of more permafrost
- Overutilization and exploitation of natural resources
- Pollution caused by human activities
- Changes in solar output which is associated with sunspot activities
- The aerosols that reach the atmosphere after volcanic eruptions
- Industrial farming and ranching releases huge levels of methane and carbon dioxide into the atmosphere
- Increasing livestock farming
- Fertilizers containing nitrogen produce nitrous oxide emissions which are harmful for the atmosphere
