High-Level Project Summary
Climate change is a man-made catastrophe, as it has led to rising temperatures and this affects agricultural crops and melting ice, and we have to sequester carbon and isolate it far into the depths of the earth. In our project, we provided information about how climate change is affecting human behavior, the consequences of its effects and the near future. We visualized the information we provided and explained the effects of climate change to us. We targeted people of all audiences to learn without getting bored and confused. The purpose of this video was to present and highlight the issue of climate change at a global level and its impact on the Arab Republic of Egypt specifically.

Detailed Project Description
Software I've used : Adobe Premiere Pro, Adobe After Effects, Adobe Audition.
Our project aims to solve the problem of climate change in the world.
In addition to the generally known global warming, we talked about its effects on forests and agriculture. The greenhouse effect causes the above effects by keeping sunlight reaching the world from within. Here, we visualized this information and presented it with our project. We created written proof by backing it up with graphics. in this way .learning becomes easier and more fun. We aim to reach people more easily by presenting our video on youtube .
Space Agency Data
Carbon dioxide in the atmosphere warms the planet, causing climate change. Human activities have raised the atmosphere’s carbon dioxide content by 50% in less than 200 years.
Carbon dioxide (CO2) is an important heat-trapping gas, or greenhouse gas, that comes from the extraction and burning of fossil fuels (such as coal, oil, and natural gas), from wildfires, and from natural processes like volcanic eruptions. The first graph shows atmospheric CO2 levels measured at Mauna Loa Observatory, Hawaii, in recent years, with natural, seasonal changes removed. The second graph shows CO2 levels during Earth’s last three glacial cycles, as captured by air bubbles trapped in ice sheets and glaciers.Since the beginning of industrial times (in the 18th century), human activities have raised atmospheric CO2 by 50% – meaning the amount of CO2 is now 150% of its value in 1750. This is greater than what naturally happened at the end of the last ice age 20,000 years ago.
Hackathon Journey
It was so good, I learned so many things in a really short time. The reason for choosing this challenge was because Egypt will host the 2022 Climate Summit in Sharm El-Sheikh . My colleagues and I participated in such an event for the first time and we had a lot of fun. Besides having fun, we learned to work as a team and handle our affairs by distributing tasks between us in the group. It was a very good experience for us. While working on this project the traction was very hot so we can say that climate change has affected us as well. We have learned very innovative solutions and how to be creative on each step that I'll do on my journey to exploration.We have learned much dexterity and how to create a solution for any problem and improving my problem solving skills.Mentors, NASA .
