Questions Frequently Asked
What is the difference between climate change and global warming?
Global warming refers to the change in the average earth's temperature due to the increase of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. However, climate change can encompass global warming and other changes earth's experiences like ocean acidification.
Why is climate change important?
Climate change is important because it can impact all existing life forms, which can have a significant impact on the survival and progress of our species as humans. If not a global catastrophic risk, climate change can impose countless uncertainties on our future.
How pollution and global warming are affecting nature?
All the current life we have on earth has adapted to living in certain climate conditions. The currently occurring climate change can change the climate to one current life forms not used to, which can threaten their survival. This is a similar concept to moving a tropical animal to Antarctica, which has a different climate than the tropics. The change of the surrounding climate can threaten the survival of that animal.
What are the facts of climate change?
Most of the facts behind climate change and global warming are measurable data. Those include data on the averages earth's temperatures, data on historical changes of greenhouse gas concentrations, data on oceans' acidity, and others. We explore many of those data in the course.
What Does This Course Cover?
- The basic definitions of climate change and global warming
- The greenhouse gasses and their effects
- A scenario of what could happen with too much greenhouse gas in the atmosphere (the great dying)

- Some effects that are taking place because of the increase in greenhouse gasses (global warming, melting of ice, the rise of sea level, ocean acidification)
- The earth's carbon sinks and their situation
- The latest international agreements revolving around climate change.

Testimonials
Great experience! Thank you for the introduction about climate-change, have deeper insight and understanding for how the human behavior influence our earth and how important to protect our environment. The green house gas, warming ocean, wish everyone can have effort on reduce these phenomenon after they lean the course. Thank you Tayseer!

Thank you so much for opening my eyes. As a matter of fact, I knew it, but as parts of the government is declining its exciting I want to be sure. As long as the industry is making the laws in the world, I don't think there is much we can change. Anyway, the presentation was clear and very well done. Sources where named. Excellent work! By the way, I liked the presentation, how did you do it?

Hello. I think the course is beautifully and very effectively put together and the graphics make it very easy to actually understand and visualize what Mr. Tayseer is explaining. I have always been confused between Global Warming and Climate Change and this course has very clearly made me understand the difference between the two along with details about the greenhouse gases and effects and the various aspects to it. Great work! Thank you so much for sharing the knowledge. Cheers! :)
