Atmospheric Circulation: Wind and Rain

Medium

(Originais Teachy 2023) - Question Medium of Geography

According to Bill McKibben (2010), the increase in the global average temperature has intensified extreme weather events, such as storms and droughts, due to the alteration of atmospheric circulation patterns. In this context, changes in wind and rainfall patterns have directly impacted the lives of various communities, especially those dependent on agroextractivist activities. Considering the concepts of Geography and the information presented, how would you explain the relationship between the intensification of extreme weather events and changes in atmospheric circulation patterns, and what would be the possible impacts of these changes for communities dependent on agroextractivist activities?
a.
The intensification of extreme weather events is caused by the alteration of atmospheric circulation patterns due to the increase in the global average temperature. However, these changes do not impact communities dependent on agroextractivist activities as these communities have means to quickly adapt to these changes.
b.
The intensification of extreme weather events is caused by the alteration of atmospheric circulation patterns due to the increase in the global average temperature. These changes can lead to more severe weather events, such as storms and droughts, directly impacting communities dependent on agroextractivist activities by causing crop losses, water shortages, and other problems that threaten the livelihoods of these communities.
c.
The intensification of extreme weather events is caused by the alteration of atmospheric circulation patterns due to the increase in the global average temperature. However, these changes benefit communities dependent on agroextractivist activities as they can lead to an increase in food production and other resources.
d.
The intensification of extreme weather events is not related to the alteration of atmospheric circulation patterns. Communities dependent on agroextractivist activities are not affected by these climate changes.
e.
The intensification of extreme weather events is caused by the decrease in the global average temperature. These changes can lead to milder weather events, such as storms and droughts, which do not directly impact communities dependent on agroextractivist activities.

In a global scenario of concern about climate change and the search for sustainable solutions, renewable energies stand out as an alternative to conventional energy sources, such as fossil fuels. Considering this perspective, (1) explain what renewable energies are and cite three examples of energy sources that fall into this category. (2) Discuss how the adoption of renewable energies can contribute to reducing the economic and socio-environmental impacts resulting from the exploitation of natural resources, paying special attention to local practices and commitment to sustainability. (3) Present arguments demonstrating the importance of renewable energy matrices in the current context and how they can be implemented at different analysis scales.
