The Effects of Climate Change on Human Rights Climate change is a global phenomenon that has been affecting the world for several decades now. It is primarily caused by human activities such as deforestation, industrialization, and the burning of fossil fuels. The effects of climate change are ...
The genusHomoevolved during the Pleistocene — an epoch of gradual cooling and amplification of glacial cycles. The changing climates influenced early human survival, adaptation and evolution in complex ways. In this Review, we present current knowledge about the effects of past climate changes on th...

ClimateCrop productivityThe Hohokam, an irrigation-based society in the American South West, used the river valleys of the Salt and Gila Rivers between 500 and 1500 AD to grow their crops. Such irrigated crops are linking human agency, water sources and the general natural environment. In order...
Hailstorms are dangerous and costly phenomena that are expected to change in response to a warming climate. In this Review, we summarize current knowledge of climate change effects on hailstorms. As a result of anthropogenic warming, it is generally anticipated that low-level moisture and convectiv...

If global temperatures continue to rise, rainfall will increasingly become a beast of extremes: long dry spells here, dangerous floods there – and in some places, intense water shortages. As early as 2025, the World Health Organization estimates that ha
As the climate changes, where plants grow best is predicted to shift. Crops that once thrived as a staple in one region may no longer be plentiful enough to feed a community that formerly depended on it. Beyond where plants grow, there's also the issue o
aClimate change is likely to remain a pressing challenge to human society throughout the 21st century, until con-certed actions are taken to prevent further global warm-ing-induced effects and to achieve sustainable develop-ment. Although the application of science will no doubt be an important ...
