How does the transportation sector contribute to the emission of greenhouse gases?
Through the burning of fossil fuels in cars, trucks, and airplanes.
Through the release of methane during fuel extraction.
Through the use of hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs) in refrigeration.
Through the release of carbon dioxide from petroleum production.
Why are emissions of greenhouse gases from human activity significant in influencing climate change?
Natural emissions of greenhouse gases are negligible compared to human emissions.
Natural emissions of greenhouse gases have been decreasing over time.
Human emissions contribute to an imbalance in the Earth's energy budget.
Human emissions have a greater warming potential than natural emissions.
Which of the following options provides examples of nature-based solutions that can contribute to both climate change mitigation and adaptation goals?
Restoring and preserving mangrove forests and wetlands.
Implementing carbon capture and storage technologies in power plants.
Constructing floodwalls and levees to protect coastal areas.

What is the effect of global warming on glaciers and ice caps?
They become more stable and resistant to melting.
They shrink and melt at an accelerated rate.
They rapidly expand and thicken.
They experience no change or growth in size.
How do mitigation and adaptation strategies complement each other in creating a comprehensive response to climate change?
Mitigation strategies focus on reducing greenhouse gas emissions, while adaptation strategies aim to prepare for and respond to the impacts of climate change.
Mitigation strategies aim to adapt to the impacts of climate change, while adaptation strategies aim to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
Mitigation strategies primarily involve technological innovations, while adaptation strategies focus on policy and governance interventions.
Mitigation and adaptation strategies are separate and independent approaches to addressing climate change.
It refers to the average daily weather for an extended period of time at a certain location.
Climate
Food
Weather
Low Pressure Area
Which of the following strategies is considered an effective way to mitigate climate change?

Increasing industrial production to stimulate economic growth.
Planting more trees to increase carbon dioxide absorption
We have mitigation and adaptation strategies when it comes to addressing climate change where more mitigation results in lesser adaptation. Which of the following options best describes a strategy for reducing the need for adaptation to the effects of climate change?
Developing advanced technologies to better cope with the impacts of climate change.
Implementing measures to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and mitigate climate change.
Enhancing public awareness and education about climate change and its consequences.
Increasing international collaborations to share adaptation strategies and resources.
