The sun radiates energy in all directions. Most of it dissipates into space, but the tiny fraction of the sun’s energy that reaches Earth is enough to heat the planet and drive the global weather system by warming the atmosphere and oceans. The delicate balance between the amount of heat Earth receives from the sun, and the heat that Earth radiates back into space makes it possible for the planet to sustain life.

Mitigation refers to actions that reduce the human contribution to the planetary greenhouse effect. Mitigation actions include lowering emissions of greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide and methane, and particles like black carbon (soot) that have a warming effect. Increasing the net uptake of carbon dioxide through land-use change and forestry can make a contribution as well.

Climate change has direct consequences on the biophysical environment of the earth. In fact, climate change and global warming can affect the length of the seasons, can present an increase in sea levels, and is even related to droughts, floodings, and biodiversity of an area.

Carbon offsetting, in theory, makes a huge difference in helping the world tackle the threat of global warming. Although it doesn’t cure the problem, it stops it from getting worse.

It seems like everywhere you look there is a natural disaster going on. Floodings, droughts, snowstorms, sea levels continue to rise, and more these type of catastrophic events are becoming more frequent as months go by. What about if you ask yourself what you could do to halt climate change?

Carbon footprints have become an essential part of any company’s overall auditing procedures. The calculation of a company’s total carbon liability, direct or indirect, has a direct bearing on the steps which are needed to be taken in order to bring it down to the lowest possible value. However, there is a lot of ambiguity still on which is the best way to calculate it.

Global warming is undoubtedly considered to be a global issue which needs to be addressed as soon as possible. Scientists and economists are beginning to grapple with the serious economic and environmental consequences if we fail to reduce global carbon emissions quickly and deeply.

’There is no worse blind man than the one who doesn’t want to see’’. This proverb fits perfectly with those individuals who do not believe in climate change, despite the vast scientific evidence that has been released for the last couple of decades. What are the 10 myths about climate change that are often heard? Continue reading and see for yourself.

Solar panels can help global warming since they don’t produce electricity from fossil fuels. What’s more, using solar energy comes with a wide range of benefits.
