Climate Change Impacts - Markdown
Climate change impacts are various environmental, social, and economic effects resulting from global warming caused by human activities and greenhouse gas emissions. Based on the IPCC (Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change) assessment reports, these impacts include sea level rise, intensification of extreme weather, biodiversity loss, water resource impacts, agricultural and food production impacts, and health effects. These impacts are already being observed worldwide and are expected to worsen further in the future.

| code | slug | name | description | category |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| 01 | sea-level-rise | Sea Level Rise | The phenomenon of rising sea levels due to ocean warming and ice sheet melting. | Physical Impact |
| 02 | extreme-weather | Extreme Weather Intensification | Extreme weather events such as heat waves, heavy rain, droughts, and typhoons become more frequent and intense. | Physical Impact |
| 03 | biodiversity-loss | Biodiversity Loss | Climate change causes ecosystem collapse and increases species extinction risk. | Ecosystem Impact |
| 04 | water-resources | Water Resources Impact | Decreased available water and changes in water supply from glacier melting occur. | Resource Impact |
| 05 | agriculture-food | Agriculture and Food Impact | Food security is threatened by reduced crop production and changes in fishery resources. | Economic and Social Impact |
| 06 | health-impacts | Health Impacts | Health damage from heat waves, spread of infectious diseases, and air pollution deaths increase. | Health Impact |
| 07 | ocean-acidification | Ocean Acidification | Oceans absorb atmospheric CO2, causing seawater acidification that affects marine ecosystems. | Ecosystem Impact |
| 08 | economic-losses | Economic Losses | Causes major economic losses including infrastructure damage, insurance premium increases, and rising disaster costs. | Economic and Social Impact |
| 09 | human-displacement | Human Displacement and Climate Refugees | Sea level rise and extreme weather force people to leave their homes due to climate change. | Social Impact |
| 10 | arctic-ice-loss | Arctic Sea Ice Loss | Rising temperatures in the Arctic cause rapid sea ice reduction, affecting ecosystems and climate patterns. | Physical Impact |
