Global Warming requires a Global solution

The increase in greenhouse gas emissions over the past 50 years is viewed as a major factor in global warming. Research by the leading

https://cdn4.digialm.com///per/g01/pub/1383/touchstone/AssessmentQ...

world authorities on global warming, the intergovernmental panel on climate change (IPCC), suggests that even if all carbon dioxide
emissions ceased today, there would be climate changes for a number of years to come, leading to water shortages for 5 billion people
and increased flooding across northern Europe by 2025. However, scientists have proposed a range of solutions from increasing efficient
use of fossil fuels to incentives for using cleaner forms of energy, which they believe are sufficient to make real impact on climate change.
The Kyoto protocol was proposed in 1997 as a means of working towards a reduction in greenhouse gas emissions and the halting of
long-term climate change. It focuses on developed countries, the world’s greatest polluters, and seeks to establish an overall reduction in
greenhouse gas emissions of 5 per cent on 1990 levels over the period of 2008-2012. Many key developed industrial nations have ratified
the protocol but a number of others have resistant towards signing it as they feel it is unfair that developing countries are exempt from the
protocol. Although a global solution to global warming is required, developed countries need to take the lead.
Politicians, scientists and business men in developed countries have given a number of reason for not signing up to the protocol. These
include doubt and the reallink between carbon dioxide emissions and global warming, concerns about the effect on their own economies
and a rejection of the need for imposed, rather than voluntary, reductions in emissions. A number of leaders of state have cited the lack of
emission reduction targets for developing countries as the key reason behind their rejection of the protocol. On the surface, this appears a
fair argument-global warming is a problem for everyone, not just those in developed countries, and requires every nation to participate.
William K. Stevens (1997) makes the point that, if left unchecked, emissions from developing countries will surpass those from developed
countries in 20-30 years.

Global Warming requires a Global solution

The increase in greenhouse gas emissions over the past 50 years is viewed as a major factor in global warming. Research by the leading
world authorities on global warming, the intergovernmental panel on climate change (IPCC), suggests that even if all carbon dioxide
emissions ceased today, there would be climate changes for a number of years to come, leading to water shortages for 5 billion people
and increased flooding across northern Europe by 2025. However, scientists have proposed a range of solutions from increasing efficient
use of fossil fuels to incentives for using cleaner forms of energy, which they believe are sufficient to make real impact on climate change.

The Kyoto protocol was proposed in 1997 as a means of working towards a reduction in greenhouse gas emissions and the halting of
long-term climate change. It focuses on developed countries, the world’s greatest polluters, and seeks to establish an overall reduction in
greenhouse gas emissions of 5 per cent on 1990 levels over the period of 2008-2012. Many key developed industrial nations have ratified
the protocol but a number of others have resistant towards signing it as they feel it is unfair that developing countries are exempt from the
protocol. Although a global solution to global warming is required, developed countries need to take the lead.
Politicians, scientists and business men in developed countries have given a number of reason for not signing up to the protocol. These
include doubt and the reallink between carbon dioxide emissions and global warming, concerns about the effect on their own economies
and a rejection of the need for imposed, rather than voluntary, reductions in emissions. A number of leaders of state have cited the lack of
emission reduction targets for developing countries as the key reason behind their rejection of the protocol. On the surface, this appears a
fair argument-global warming is a problem for everyone, not just those in developed countries, and requires every nation to participate.
William K. Stevens (1997) makes the point that, if left unchecked, emissions from developing countries will surpass those from developed
countries in 20-30 years.
