Summary

The Climate change Dataset contains all resources that are being used as source of energy from 1960 to 2015
worldwide. It is provided by the world Bank. Climate change will have irreversible impact over the inhabitants
of earth .Climate variability supports frequency of extreme events like floods , storms and SEA LEVEL RISE ETC. Understanding and predicting what the coming winter might bring, or predicting how climate will change over the next century is of vital importance - both for our economy and for society.

Prediction Goals

  1. how Climate will change in coming years and next century
  2. What are the major sources/sector of global warming

Long Description

  • Sea levels are rising and oceans are becoming warmer. Longer, more intense droughts threaten crops, wildlife and freshwater supplies. From polar bears in the Arctic to marine turtles off the coast of Africa, our planetโ€™s diversity of life is at risk from the changing climate.

  • Climate change poses a fundamental threat to the places, species. To adequately address this crisis we must urgently reduce carbon pollution and prepare for the consequences of global warming, which we are already experiencing.

  • Analysis and usage of data can help us to make better decision for climate action.
