Climate change - A long-term change in the Earth's climate, especially a change due to an increase in the average atmospheric temperature., Mitigation - Actions taken to tackle the causes of climate change e.g. carbon capture, Orbital changes - Changes in the pathway of the Earth around the Sun., Quaternary period - The period of geological time from about 2.6 million years ago to the present., Adaptation - Actions taken to adjust to the changes caused by climate change e.g. managing water supply., Sunspots - Darker, cooler patches on the surface of the Sun. They form at areas where magnetic fields are particularly strong; keeping some of the heat within the Sun from reaching the surface., Enhanced greenhouse effect - Warming of the Earth's atmosphere due to increased concentration of greenhouse gases that humans have released since the Industrial Revolution., Greenhouse gas - Gases in the atmosphere that absorb solar heat reflected by the surface of the Earth, warming the atmosphere e.g. carbon dioxide and methane., Fossil fuels - Decomposed plants and animals found in the Earth's crust which can be burned for energy e.g. coal, oil, and natural gas., Volcanic activity - When lava and gas are released from a volcano.
