Abstract

Since the origin of the planet, the climate has undergone great changes over the Ages. With the evolution of human civilization, factors that contribute to the Earth's climate system have changed. One of these factors is the environment, responsible for maintaining the life of all inhabitants of the earth and its constant degradation has caused enormous damage to the climate. Great world powers and the scientific world, in the last decade, has been concerned with the continuity of life on the planet. One of the consequences of this degradation of the natural environment is climate change, which causes natural disasters such as floods, blizzards and desertification in certain areas. Scientific currents debate the true causes of climate change, but the consequences are true and unique and the human being is the main agent causing direct and indirect. This research analyzes the changes in the world, characterizing the Northeast region of Brazil, which in recent years has been suffering from extreme droughts causing enormous damage to its population.
