During the event, the main anthropogenic and natural factors of global warming, the mechanisms of change within the climate system, the increase in greenhouse gas concentrations in the atmosphere, and their impact on the biosphere were comprehensively discussed. Based on scientific data, the potential consequences of rising global temperatures for ecosystem stability, biodiversity, hydroclimatic regimes, and human health were also examined. The students shared their views and took part in a scientific discussion on climate change modeling, monitoring methods, and strategies for its prevention.
