CLIMATE CHANGE DUE TO GREENHOUSE GASES: CHANGE, IMPACTS, AND RESPONSES
Resumo
Increases in the atmospheric loading of greenhouse gases will if they continue at anything near the present rates, cause significant future climate change. The magnitude, timing, and regional distributions of changes in temperatures and precipitation cannot yet be predicted with certainty. I describe herein possible regional impacts. A number of strategies tor prevention, mitigation, and adaptation are discussed.
