Climate Change Course

Description

Climate Change Diploma 

Industrialisation and technological advancements in recent decades have adversely impacted the Earth's environment and climatic conditions. Climate change, directly and indirectly, affects the life of humanity and the rest of the organisms. Hence, it has become crucial to be aware of the climate crisis and foster a strong understanding of its effects. This Climate Change Diploma course introduces the students to many aspects of climate change. The areas explored in this Course include the Earth's biomes, structural development, oceans, and climate regulation. One will also study the influence of human activities such as industrialisation and agriculture, the response of humanity to the climate crisis, and how the Earth's climatic conditions will look in the future.

Climate change or crisis refers to extended alterations in weather patterns and temperature. These alterations can also occur naturally. However, the rapid change in climate since the 19th century is predominantly due to human activities, including fossil fuel combustion (like oil, gas, and coal), which creates gases that trap heat (greenhouse gases).

The Climate Change Diploma course introduces climate, its scientific study, and the effect of greenhouse gases on the Earth's natural conditions. Later, the Course explores the development and history of the Earth's composition and its relation to the surface climate.

The Climate Change Diploma course will take one through distinct climates along with Earth's varying biomes, their response to changes in climatic conditions, and the differences between the Earth's principal climate control biogeochemical cycles. The learners will also explore the reaction of oceans to the increase in atmospheric carbon concentration and their effect on energy and material exchange.

The Diploma course in Climate Change will require around 160 hrs to complete, using an e-learning method. The Course does not have a time limit, and the learners can complete it at their own pace.

For those who are enthusiastic about the planet's wildlife, ecosystems, climate wellbeing, and implications related to the activities of humanity, the Diploma course in Climate Change provides the crucial information required to understand the grave issue of the climate crisis and how society can live sustainably to battle it.

Learners will gain thorough knowledge about the effects of climate on ecosystems, weather, and human endeavours such as development and culture. The Climate Change Diploma course will investigate how agriculture affects the environment, how urbanisation affects geography, and how industrialisation affects climate, including the current implications of non-renewable fuels (fossil fuels).

Towards the end of the Course, one will study the strategies for climate response through renewable resources, methods of production, and renewable resources. The learner will also explore the timelines of change in climate, climate trends, and response movements for sources of sustainable cities, policy development, and renewable energy sources.

Course Outcomes

After completing the course, you will receive a diploma certificate and an academic transcript from Elearn college.

Assessment

Each unit concludes with a multiple-choice examination. This exercise will help you recall the major aspects covered in the unit and help you ensure that you have not missed anything important in the unit. The results are readily available, which will help you see your mistakes and look at the topic once again. If the result is satisfactory, it is a green light for you to proceed to the next chapter.

Accreditation
