Abstract
The Climate change is no longer a distant environmental concern; it has become a defining challenge of the 21st century, affecting ecosystems, economies, and human livelihoods globally. Traditionally, climate change refers to long-term alterations in temperature, precipitation, and atmospheric patterns, largely driven by anthropogenic activities such as fossil fuel combustion, deforestation, and industrialization. However, in today’s context, climate change must be understood not only as a scientific phenomenon but also as a socio-economic and technological issue that demands integrated solutions.
