Climate change, spanning from tropical regions to polar zones, represents a significant and persistent alteration in weather patterns, posing a grave threat to all sectors of the global economy. This review seeks to shed light on the variability that is comprehensively eroding the sustainability of various sectors. The uniqueness of this review lies in its thorough synthesis of the most recent research and insights into global climatic changes, offering a holistic perspective that covers the causes, manifestations, impacts, and potential remedies to tackle this intricate issue. While numerous studies have delved into different facets of climate change independently, this review integrates diverse viewpoints from climate science, ecology, economics, and social sciences to provide a nuanced comprehension of the multifaceted challenges of climatic shifts. Furthermore, a discussion on the intricate relationship between climate change and other global crises, such as food security, water scarcity, and social inequality, underscores the interconnected nature of these challenges and the significance of integrated solutions. Additionally, the review has furnished valuable insights into potential adaptation and mitigation strategies to confront the challenges of climate change. Recent events like the coronavirus outbreak indicate that climate change exacerbates the issue of antimicrobial resistance, posing a new threat to human health through the proliferation of resistant microorganisms. Moreover, the global tourism faces significant setbacks when climate change renders previously popular destinations less attractive. This review offers a detailed assessment of climate change mitigation and adaptation measures tailored to specific sectors mentioned above while considering the associated economic implications. Prioritizing efforts to mitigate the impacts of climate change is imperative, necessitating a global endeavor to address its catastrophic effects and safeguard global sustainability.
