WHEREAS, in furtherance of the united effort to address the effects of climate change, in 2015 the 21st Session of the Conference of the Parties to the UNFCC met in Paris, France and entered into a historic agreement in which 195 nations, including the United States, were signatories and agreed to determine their own target contribution to mitigate climate change by holding the increase in the global average temperature to well below 2 °C above pre-industrial levels and to pursue efforts to limit the temperature increase to 1.5 °C above pre-industrial levels, among other terms (the «Paris Agreement»);

Dr Li said the latest research findings give a better understanding of changes in human - perceived equivalent temperature, and indicate global warming has stronger long - term impacts on human beings under both extreme and non-extreme weather conditions, suggesting that climate change adaptation can not just focus on heat wave events, but should be extended to the whole range of effects of temperature increases.

... they caution that society should fully quantify direct and indirect GHG emissions associated with energy alternatives and associated consequences prior to making policy commitments that have long - term effects on global forests; for they ominously warn «there is a substantial risk of sacrificing forest integrity and sustainability for maintaining or even increasing energy production with no guarantee to mitigate climate change.»»

Of course, «the truth,» according to Inhofe, is that climate change is a myth: «The science is still out on what effect CO2 might have in terms of what they call global warming and the science is more on our side than on their side.&raquOf course, «the truth,» according to Inhofe, is that climate change is a myth: «The science is still out on what effect CO2 might have in terms of what they call global warming and the science is more on our side than on their side.&raquof what they call global warming and the science is more on our side than on their side.»

I think an addition or subtraction of say 100 watts per square meter would cause a slow change in climate and global temperature, and humans could easily mitigate the long term effects fairly easier, or steps could taken to change our world in some manner if that was seen as needed in the future.

Initially, PED showed backbone, standing up to political activists pushing the state to adopt the Next Generation Science Standards view of climate change, which promotes the false claims that the science on climate change is settled, that we know human activities are driving dangerous climate change, that carbon dioxide is a pollutant that's dangerous to human health and the environment, and that we fully understand how to counteract the effects of climate change or control long - term global temperature.

We predicted that an otherwise identical question would (i) elicit lower levels of existence beliefs when worded in terms of «global warming» rather than «climate change,» and that (ii) this effect would be more pronounced for respondents who self - identify as Republicans (as opposed to Democrats or Independents) for the reasons discussed above.

The Fifth Assessment Report of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) warns that, despite global side effects and long - term consequences, geoengineering techniques involving solar radiation management (SRM) should be maintained:

Climate change is the long - term average of a region's weather events lumped together.There are some effects of greenhouse gases and global warming: melting of ice caps, rising sea levels, change in climatic patterns, spread diseases, economic consequences, increased droughts and heat waves.

Originally denoted «climate change skeptics» or «anthropogenic (human - induced) global warming skeptics», the term referred to those who are as yet unconvinced by evidence that emissions of man - made CO2 significantly enhance the natural atmospheric greenhouse effect.

Global warming and climate change are terms for the observed century - scale rise in the average temperature of the Earth's climate system and its related effects.

Using software program Sketch Engine, I looked at how frequently the key corporate terms «climate change», «greenhouse effect», and «global warming» were used in each year to reveal how patterns of attention changed over time.

Mitigation and adaptation are essential to addressing climate change over the long term, but over the short to medium term they will almost certainly be insufficient to protect the world's poorest from the worst effects of global warming.

Given the huge climate change in the NH, the net effect is trivial and fully supports the contention that minor changes in OHT do not cause long term synchronous * global * warming or cooling because they are just * reorganisations * of the way energy moves around * inside * the climate system.

We support educating the public and policymakers in government and industry about the harmful human health effects of global climate change, and about the immediate and long - term health benefits associated with reducing greenhouse gas emissions (i.e., heat - trapping pollution) and taking other preventive and protective measures that contribute to sustainability.
