Abstract :Since the industrial revolution, the modes of production and consumption that were incompatible with the environment has led to several environmental problems due to global population growth and welfare demands. In this process, the composition of the atmosphere has changed due to the gradual increase in greenhouse gas emissions by human activities, leading to global climate change due to the greenhouse effect and global warming. Greenhouse gases induced by human activities insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(transportation, power generation, water consumption, heating, fuel consumption, etc.); are generally measured in CO2 emissions and carbon footprint. Global climate change, a significant global problem, entails the changes in climate due to the greenhouse effect induced by the gases released into the atmosphere by human activities, and this impact is expressed as carbon footprint insert ignore into journalissuearticles values(CO2 equivalent);. The present study aims to investigate the current status of greenhouse gases in terms of carbon footprint and the climate change due to global warming in Turkey, and monthly precipitation, soil temperature, sea water temperature and changes in air temperature were investigated in Muğla province, Bodrum district in Turkey, which is a significant tourist destination. The results showed that global climate change has started to occur in Bodrum district.
