Yet, in reality, it is business as usual that would be disrupted by the consequences of climate change, with unfettered
warming
impeding or even reversing Asia’s recent economic progress.
So, in this era of global warming, smart bombs, cyber warfare, and worldwide epidemics, our societies must be protected with more complex and subtle strategies.
In this area, too, Europe has taken the lead, especially concerning global warming, showing that petty selfishness can be put aside to achieve a common good.
This also makes physical sense, given the rapid
warming
in the Arctic.
Global warming, caused by our greenhouse-gas emissions, is thus far continuing unabated.
Thus, it is almost certain that
warming
– including in the Arctic – will continue in the coming decades.
The ice loss will amplify global
warming
and upset weather patterns.
But the ice loss will amplify
warming
especially in the Arctic – indeed, this is already happening.
Moreover, disproportionate Arctic
warming
is already affecting one of the most important components of the global climate system: the Greenland Ice Sheet.
While future sea level is hard to predict, most experts would agree that unabated global
warming
could lead in the coming centuries to a rise measured in meters, threatening the very existence of many coastal cities and entire island nations.
It is a sign of global
warming
– and a grave warning sign for us all.
For health reasons, yes, we should indeed do that; but, paradoxically, limiting such emissions would cause global
warming
to increase.
Because black particles contain soot and absorb sunlight, they are believed to increase global
warming.
Indeed, according to the United Nations’ Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, the cooling effect of white particles may counteract as much as about half of the
warming
effect of carbon dioxide.
So, if all white particles were removed from the atmosphere, global
warming
would increase considerably.
In 2011, the United Nations Environment Program published a report comparing measures targeting soot particles and other so-called “short-lived climate pollutants” to measures reducing CO2, which showed that the former would achieve a more rapid decrease of global
warming
in the coming decades.
How do we weigh improved health and reduced mortality rates for hundreds of thousands of people against the serious consequences of global
warming?
It is difficult to imagine that any country’s officials would knowingly submit their population to higher health risks by not acting to reduce white particles solely because they counteract global
warming.
Instead, we should aim to reduce emissions of CO2 and other pollutants that contribute to global
warming.
The Alliance is “up” for one key reason: the
warming
of France’s relations with the US following Nicolas Sarkozy’s election as French president.
From a toughening of France’s position on Iran to a real
warming
of relations with Israel, not to mention symbolic gestures like Sarkozy’s summer vacation in America, or Foreign Minister Bernard Kouchner’s arrival in Baghdad, this is a New France, one seriously considering a return to NATO’s integrated military structure.
Burning natural gas to heat oily dirt releases large amounts of carbon dioxide, exacerbating global
warming.
Moreover, a
warming
of the Russia-US relationship could lead to subtle changes in the Russia-China relationship, which has deepened since Russia’s annexation of Crimea wrecked its relations with the West.
India’s water supply is stretched to the limit, even as global
warming
is fast melting the Himalayan glaciers on which millions depend for water.
Take global
warming.
Iceland’s superior economic performance should thus not be attributed to the devaluation of the krona, but rather to global warming, which pushed the herring farther North, into Icelandic waters.
Chinese Coal CutsHONG KONG – In the fight to limit global warming, no country matters more than China – a massive coal-dependent country, which is responsible for 30% of global carbon-dioxide emissions.
If China does not reduce that share and cut its greenhouse-gas emissions, keeping global
warming
in check will prove impossible.
That means that CO2 emissions – the largest component of the greenhouse-gas emissions that cause global
warming
– will begin falling, too, enabling China to fulfill its pledge, made last November as part of a landmark climate agreement with the United States, that emissions would peak around 2030.
But its recent progress in reducing emissions shows that, with the right combination of government policies, corporate initiatives, and public pressure, even the largest and most polluted countries can clean up their economies and help fight global
warming.
