Introduction Climate change has been the forefront of international news and how leaders will take specific measures on tackling environmental challenges. China has faced much pressure and criticism‚ domestically and internationally with their actions or lack thereof on the environmental crisis. China is the world’s leader when it comes to the release of carbon emissions.

Climate Change – Who’s Responsible to tackle climate change? I chose this topic because currently the world’s undergoing a major threat in which even the lives of humans can be at a high risk. Surely‚ humans are one and only cause of the change in these conditions. The world’s increasing the usage of fuels and petroleum day by day increases the world’s average temperature. I agree that they have a major role in our lives and I also agree that we need them to do our daily chores but this increase

common arguments used by climate change skeptics. There is both human caused and non-human caused climate changes. Global warming may be a hoax or due to changes in nature. Natural changes such as sunspots and orbital change has had an effect on climate. Sun spots have been investigated since the 1800’s. Research published by the Journal of Atmospherics and solar terrestrial physics have concluded “the sun has a significant role to play in long-term and short-term climate change.” Another reason may

Climate Change Policy Response to a text Hello‚ my name is Owen Doherty and I am writing to you in hope to persuade you to change your environmental policy. I am eighteen years old living in the United Kingdom and I am deeply concerned that the future of this planet is hopeless due to your current policy on climate change. There is scientific evidence that shows that the global climate is changing with rising sea levels‚ extreme heatwaves and the melting of ice and snow. The effects of climate change

1: Ecosystems at Risk A. Ecosystems and Their Management 2. Vulnerability and Resilience of Ecosystems * Vunerability is the sensitivity of an ecosystem to cope with stress. * Resilience is the ability of an ecosystem (or a component of an ecosystem) to adapt to a changing environment and to restore function and structure following an episode of natural or human-induced stress. * All ecosystems function in a state of dynamic equilibrium or a continual state of balanced change. *

The main reason of my fascination for climate change issues is that this challenge has brought to surface the impacts and consequences of what I consider the worst face of ignorance:greed; and it raised the importance of collaboration. Nowadays‚ while there is still uncertainty about the best way to address global warming‚ there is no doubt that all parties -governments‚ businessmen‚ scientists- now understand that they must work together to discover ways of managing what we are facing‚ and as a

According to an article called‚ The Real Holes in Climate Science‚ created by a senior reporter‚ named‚ Quirin Schlermeter. Since 1999‚ Quirin has written for Nature about science and related policies in Germany‚ the European Union‚ Eastern Europe and the former Soviet Union. The article was published in 2010 and it talks about scientist agreeing that the Earth’s climate is changing‚ includes some of IPCC and how policy makers
