[1] Climate change is already now altering biomes, adversely affecting terrestrial and marine ecosystems. [2] [3] Climate change represents long-term changes in temperature and average weather patterns.
Children are physically more vulnerable to climate change in all its forms. [5] Climate change affects the physical health of children and their well-being. Prevailing inequalities, between and within countries, determine how climate change impacts children. [6] Children often have no voice in terms of global responses to climate change.

Other approaches to mitigating climate change have a higher level of risk. Scenarios that limit global warming to 1.5 °C typically project the large-scale use of carbon dioxide removal methods over the 21st century. [292] There are concerns, though, about over-reliance on these technologies, and environmental impacts. [293]
