that Australia needs to sign the Kyoto protocol in order to assure that it will reduce its greenhouse gas emissions. I will be talking about the situation nationally. (Rebuttal) Now to my first point‚ the Kyoto protocol will have a large affect on the Australian industry. John Howard has told parliament that the Kyoto protocol would cripple the resource industry and cause jobs to disappear. This is certainly not the case. By failing to sign the Kyoto protocol‚ Australia will lose trade partners

The Kyoto Protocol‚ which took effect on February 16‚ 2005‚ aims to reduce the amount of greenhouse gas emissions around the world. The debate whether the issue of climate change is valid or whether it is an exaggerated theory is still ongoing. Given that the Kyoto Protocol raises economic concerns and that it lacks overall effectiveness‚ Canada and businesses in general should not be in favour of it. This is in part because of the treaty’s conditions and partially because of the actions of other

Amidst such an atmosphere‚ the text of an international treaty‚ the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) was adopted at the Earth Summit in Rio de Janeiro in 1992‚ and the Convention entered into force in 1994. However‚ by 1995 the countries realized that the provisions on emission reductions in the Convention were not adequate . The Kyoto Protocol‚ adopted in Kyoto‚ Japan‚ on 11 December 1997‚ was a result of the

Observations show that warming of the climate is clear. The global warming observed over the past 50 years is due primarily to human-induced emissions of heat-trapping gases. These emissions

Global Warming Recently‚ there have been many problems with hurricanes‚ heat waves‚ and floods. What could perchance be causing all of this? One of the main reasons there has been so many natural disasters and complications is global warming. Global warming is the rising average temperature of Earth’s atmosphere and oceans due to the greenhouse effect. The greenhouse effect consumes greenhouse gases in the earth’s atmosphere which causes the heating of the earth and very high temperatures and

GLOBAL WARMING : WHAT LIES AHEAD GLOBAL WARMING Climate change is a change in the statistical distribution of weather over periods of time that range from decades to millions of years. In recent usage‚ especially in the context of environment policy‚ it is more generally known as "global warming"‚ which occurs due to increasing levels of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. Most of the observed temperature increase has been caused by increasing concentrations of greenhouse gases‚ which result

1) What is global warming? (History) Definition: Global warming is the observed century-scale rise in the average temperature of Earth’s climate system. Common sense:Glaciers are melting‚ sea levels are rising‚ cloud forests are drying‚ and wildlife is scrambling to keep pace. It’s becoming clear that humans have caused most of the past century’s warming by releasing heat-trapping gases as we power our modern lives. Called greenhouse gases‚ their levels are higher now than

I Introduction My awareness of the phenomenon called either "global warming" or "climate change" started immediately before the Kyoto Summit in December 1997. I read articles in the media which said that many scientists believe that the threat of global arming was alarming and that our political leaders would have to do something in order to prevent the climate from getting hotter and hotter. Since this conference climate change has fascinated me. This research paper is divided into two main parts:
