how does climate affect people and vegetation?

Answer 1

This affects it becuase not all plants grow with the same temperature.. For example cactuces need a very dry environment. Intsead potatoes need a very humid and cold weather to grow healthy. If you plant a cactus in a rain forest it will not grow becuase it does not have the caracteristics to survive in that environment. This may affect humans also becuase they can be allergic to cold or hot weather and also to the plants and fruits these plants grow. Pease pick me as ur best answer!!!

Climate change is real and happening right now. Its reality can be seen in melting ice, dying coral reefs, rising sea levels, changing ecosystems and prolonged and more severe droughts. According to the WHO, 150,000 people are already dying every year as a result of climate change. It is for this reason that the world needs to take action now before our planet becomes damaged beyond repair.

There is strong evidence that extreme weather events – such as hurricanes, floods, droughts and heat waves – are increasing (and becoming more severe and frequent) because of climate change The cumulative number of people affected by disasters rose to two billion in the 1990s, up from 740 million in the 1970s. Virtually all of these millions were concentrated in poorer countries.

One of the most pressing questions concerning future climate change is how it will affect the terrestrial vegetation Studies indicate that as global warming continues, and carbon dioxide levels double from pre-industrial levels By 2075 the climate of New England could become more like that of Richmond, Va. The maples so prevalent in the region would die off – possibly “migrating” or establishing a foothold only in more northern, colder climes. This change in species would change the character of regional biogenic emissions, which would further affect regional air quality and climate.effects of ozone pollution on vegetation productivity and carbon sequestration. Nowhere is this more hotly debated than in the tropics, where the future of the Amazon rainforest and the continued viability of current agricultural practices are at stake. Studies of past climates may elucidate how quickly vegetation can respond to climate change. Recently, Hughen et al reported that tropical vegetation in Venezuela has in the past responded to climate change within less than 50 years. In contrast, Jennerjahn et al reported a vegetation response time of 1000 to 2000 years in northeast Brazil.
Ground-level ozone has been observed to inhibit photosynthesis by direct cellular damage
