Impact of Heating Practices on Climate Change and Food Security

The irresponsible heating practices at Ballygoback Community School contribute to increased carbon emissions, leading to a rise in global temperatures, adverse weather conditions, and droughts in regions like the Tigray region of Ethiopia. This results in failed crops, food scarcity, and reliance on aid for families like Yusuf's. The interconnected chain of events emphasizes the importance of sustainable heating practices in mitigating climate change and ensuring food security.
