Climate
is the daily atmospheric
condition in a region and can change

typically being shown in news reports.
Weather
is a process of which the oceanic pH decreases or becomes less basic.
Ocean acidification
Using plants to clean soil, water, and
air from pollutants.
Phytoremediation
Utilizing microorganisms to degrade or
neutralize environmental
contaminants.
▪ Applications in oil spill cleanup,
wastewater treatment, and soil
recovery.
Bioremediation
Employing chemical agents to
detoxify pollutants (e.g., neutralizing
acids or oxidizing organic waste).
▪ Often combined with biological
approaches for efficiency.
Chemical Remediation:
Mechanical methods like soil
excavation, sediment dredging, or
filtration for immediate cleanup.
▪ Suitable for severe contamination.
Physical Remediation:
