Evidence for climate change from the beginning of the Quaternary period to the present day. Possible causes of climate change. Natural factors: orbital changes, volcanic activity and solar output. Human factors: use of fossil fuels, agriculture and deforestation. 2 1st hour Either: Students collect evidence on a A3 sheet (eg graphs of glacial retreat, CO2 concentrations over time, maps of arctic ice reduction, weather records, historical evidence such as Frost Fair, Mauna Loa records, Vostok ice cores etc).
