Abstract

This article analyzes the phenomenon of global climate change from both scientific and socio-economic perspectives, offering an integrated assessment of current trends and long-term forecasts. Drawing on data from the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), NASA, and the World Meteorological Organization (WMO), the paper explores the causes, manifestations, and potential consequences of climate change across continents. Rising temperatures, melting glaciers, sea-level rise, and extreme weather events are identified as critical indicators of planetary transformation. Special attention is paid to climate modeling, predictive scenarios, and mitigation strategies. The study concludes that climate change is not only an environmental issue but also a structural challenge that requires global cooperation, technological innovation, and behavioral transformation.
