to join The Kyoto Protocol. Albeit it a small step on the long road to reduce CO2 emissions; it was never the less‚ a decisive action which proved Russia’s commitment and accountability to reduce climate change. Originally Russia set out to reduce its CO2 emissions by 5% since 1990. Today‚ however‚ Russia has re-evaluated its target to a 15% reduction by 2020. To date‚ Russia has already successfully cut more emissions than required by the Kyoto Protocol. Due to its size and geography – much of Russia

of Earth’s surface temperature due to the effect of greenhouse gases. The main causes of global warming is the greenhouse effect‚ fossil fuels in cars‚ and global emission. Global warming is having an effect on our environment such as rising seas‚ changes in rainfall patterns‚ and etc. What we can do to stop this is‚ lower down emissions‚ cut greenhouse gases and so on. This paper will focus on what global warming is doing to our environment. The greenhouse effect is one of the things causing global

sustainability the government addresses several issues. The degradation of the natural environment as a result of pollution is a primary issue. Pollution involves the passing of one’s production costs onto a third party‚ including untreated rubbish and emissions of chemicals through the production process.

Greenhouse gas emissions come mostly from energy use. This is driven by economic growth‚ fuel used for electricity generation‚ and weather patterns affecting heating and cooling needs. Carbon Dioxide makes up 82% of human-made greenhouse gas emissions coming from petroleum and natural gas. Another Greenhouse gas Methane‚ makes up 9% of human-made greenhouse gas emissions coming from landfills‚ coalmines‚ oil and gas operations and agriculture. Nitrous Oxide makes up 5% of total emissions emitted from

years. Change is occurring and the population as whole should pay closer attention to the issue at hand. “Climate change is the most important issue of the 21st century. The global economy—and civilization itself—may collapse unless greenhouse-gas emissions are controlled. Global warming already touches every part of the planet‚ and people everywhere are affected in their daily lives” (Brown‚ p.15). The effects of global warming have the potential to eliminate the entire earth’s existence‚ not just

the climate system of releasing greenhouse gases into the atmosphere. Greenhouse gas emissions have been caused by the combustion of fossil fuels. They are closely related to the carbon content of the fuels and therefore a tax on the emissions of carbon has been levied on fossil fuels. There are many advantages and disadvantages to Carbon Tax‚ some advantages are; They put a limit on the costs of emissions reduction. They can be implemented quickly. They are predictable in their costs. Relatively

Normal rainfall is slightly acidic because carbon dioxide in the atmosphere dissolves in the raindrops to produce hydrogen ions. Yet‚ normal rainfall is not considered acid rain. Acid rain is a form of air pollution in which airborne acids produced by electric utility plants and other sources fall to Earth in distant regions. The corrosive nature of acid rain causes widespread damage to the environment. The problem begins with the production of sulfur dioxide and nitrogen oxides from the burning
