Asia will have a climate change

Southeast Asia will have a climate change. The Asian Development Bank study focused on Indonesia, the Philippines, Thailand and Vietnam. Those countries are vulnerable because they have large coastal populations facing rising sea levels. They also rely heavily on rice and other products. This could suffer from water shortages as well as floods. Vietnam was found to be the most vulnerable. If nothing is done to combat global warming, the report said that by 2100 the four Asian countries would see temperatures rise an average of 8.6 Fahrenheit. That's very bad. They would also likely drop in rainfall leading to droughts and more forest fires. This is more destructive than tropical storms and flooding from rising seas. This could displace millions of people and lead to the destruction of 965 square miles. Governments are working to lay the groundwork ahead of a U.N. conference in December. This is in Copenhagen that will try to draft an agreement on regulating carbon emissions. It would replace the 1998 Kyoto Protocol which expires in 2012. The key for Southeast Asia would be protecting its remaining tropical forests which have fallen victim in recent years to widespread illegal logging and the expansion of palm oil plantations. This is very bad. The people would have to leave the country or die. I hope they stop global warming.

Lessen Global Warming

There is this new scientific study that finds the worst of global warming. Global warming can still be prevented. It can be prevented by cutting the greenhouse gase uses. This is the way President Barack Obama and Europe want. A computer thing by the National Center for Atmospheric Research in Boulder looked at what would happen by the end of the century if greenhouse gas levels were cut by 70 percent. The result would be the world would still be a warmer world. It would be by about 2 degrees instead of 4 degrees. Arctic sea ice would shrink but not disappear. Sea level would rise less. About half the temperature increases. There are also changes in droughts and floods. They can be prevented to a scenario without cuts. This study will be published next week in the journal Geophysical Research Letters. If there are future heat waves, it would be 55 percent less intense. The study is one of the first to use computer models to show how much of the effects global warming can be prevented. The study looked at what would happen with cuts in pollution. History has shown that reductions are much easier to talk about than to make. This is pretty much all I know and I thinks it's kind of interesting because global warming can lessen.

Global Warming

Global warming danger has increased. This includes extreme weather and threats to animals and plants. Carbon dioxide and other gases have been blamed for rising temperatures.
