id label title paragraph sentence 0 1 Pollution 1 Pollution is the introduction of contaminants into the natural environment that cause adverse change. 1 1 Pollution 1 Pollution can take the form of chemical substances or energy, such as noise, heat or light. 2 1 Pollution 1 Pollutants, the components of pollution, can be either foreign substances/energies or naturally occurring contaminants. 3 1 Pollution 1 Pollution is often classed as point source or nonpoint source pollution. 4 1 Pollution 1 In 2015, pollution killed 9 million people in the world. 5 1 Pollution 2 Major forms of pollution include: Air pollution, light pollution, littering, noise pollution, plastic pollution, soil contamination, radioactive contamination, thermal pollution, visual pollution, water pollution. 6 1 Pollution 3 Air pollution has always accompanied civilizations. 7 1 Pollution 3 Pollution started from prehistoric times, when man created the first fires. 8 1 Pollution 3 "According to a 1983 article in the journal ""Science,"" ""soot"" found on ceilings of prehistoric caves provides ample evidence of the high levels of pollution that was associated with inadequate ventilation of open fires." 9 1 Pollution 3 Metal forging appears to be a key turning point in the creation of significant air pollution levels outside the home. 10 1 Pollution 3 Core samples of glaciers in Greenland indicate increases in pollution associated with Greek, Roman, and Chinese metal production. 11 1 Pollution 4 The burning of coal and wood, and the presence of many horses in concentrated areas made the cities the primary sources of pollution. 12 1 Pollution 4 The Industrial Revolution brought an infusion of untreated chemicals and wastes into local streams that served as the water supply. 13 1 Pollution 4 King Edward I of England banned the burning of sea-coal by proclamation in London in 1272, after its smoke became a problem; the fuel was so common in England that this earliest of names for it was acquired because it could be carted away from some shores by the wheelbarrow. 14 1 Pollution 5 It was the Industrial Revolution that gave birth to environmental pollution as we know it today. 15 1 Pollution 5 London also recorded one of the earlier extreme cases of water quality problems with the Great Stink on the Thames of 1858, which led to construction of the London sewerage system soon afterward. 16 1 Pollution 5 Pollution issues escalated as population growth far exceeded viability of neighborhoods to handle their waste problem. 17 1 Pollution 5 Reformers began to demand sewer systems and clean water. 18 1 Pollution 6 In 1870, the sanitary conditions in Berlin were among the worst in Europe. 19 1 Pollution 6 August Bebel recalled conditions before a modern sewer system was built in the late 1870s: 20 1 Pollution 7 The primitive conditions were intolerable for a world national capital, and the Imperial German government brought in its scientists, engineers, and urban planners to not only solve the deficiencies, but to forge Berlin as the world's model city. 21 1 Pollution 7 "A British expert in 1906 concluded that Berlin represented ""the most complete application of science, order and method of public life,"" adding ""it is a marvel of civic administration, the most modern and most perfectly organized city that there is." 22 1 Pollution 8 The emergence of great factories and consumption of immense quantities of coal gave rise to unprecedented air pollution and the large volume of industrial chemical discharges added to the growing load of untreated human waste. 23 1 Pollution 8 Chicago and Cincinnati were the first two American cities to enact laws ensuring cleaner air in 1881. 24 1 Pollution 8 Pollution became a major issue in the United States in the early twentieth century, as progressive reformers took issue with air pollution caused by coal burning, water pollution caused by bad sanitation, and street pollution caused by the 3 million horses who worked in American cities in 1900, generating large quantities of urine and manure. 25 1 Pollution 8 "As historian Martin Melosi notes, The generation that first saw automobiles replacing the horses saw cars as ""miracles of cleanliness.""." 26 1 Pollution 8 By the 1940s, however, automobile-caused smog was a major issue in Los Angeles. 27 1 Pollution 9 Other cities followed around the country until early in the 20th century, when the short lived Office of Air Pollution was created under the Department of the Interior. 28 1 Pollution 9 Extreme smog events were experienced by the cities of Los Angeles and Donora, Pennsylvania in the late 1940s, serving as another public reminder. 29 1 Pollution 10 Air pollution would continue to be a problem in England, especially later during the industrial revolution, and extending into the recent past with the Great Smog of 1952. 30 1 Pollution 10 Awareness of atmospheric pollution spread widely after World War II, with fears triggered by reports of radioactive fallout from atomic warfare and testing. 31 1 Pollution 10 Then a non-nuclear event – the Great Smog of 1952 in London – killed at least 4000 people. 32 1 Pollution 10 This prompted some of the first major modern environmental legislation: the Clean Air Act of 1956. 33 1 Pollution 11 Pollution began to draw major public attention in the United States between the mid-1950s and early 1970s, when Congress passed the Noise Control Act, the Clean Air Act, the Clean Water Act, and the National Environmental Policy Act. 34 1 Pollution 12 Severe incidents of pollution helped increase consciousness. 35 1 Pollution 12 PCB dumping in the Hudson River resulted in a ban by the EPA on consumption of its fish in 1974. 36 1 Pollution 12 National news stories in the late 1970s – especially the long-term dioxin contamination at Love Canal starting in 1947 and uncontrolled dumping in Valley of the Drums – led to the Superfund legislation of 1980. 37 1 Pollution 12 The pollution of industrial land gave rise to the name brownfield, a term now common in city planning. 38 1 Pollution 13 The development of nuclear science introduced radioactive contamination, which can remain lethally radioactive for hundreds of thousands of years. 39 1 Pollution 13 "Lake Karachay – named by the Worldwatch Institute as the ""most polluted spot"" on earth – served as a disposal site for the Soviet Union throughout the 1950s and 1960s." 40 1 Pollution 13 "Chelyabinsk, Russia, is considered the ""Most polluted place on the planet""." 41 1 Pollution 14 Nuclear weapons continued to be tested in the Cold War, especially in the earlier stages of their development. 42 1 Pollution 14 The toll on the worst-affected populations and the growth since then in understanding about the critical threat to human health posed by radioactivity has also been a prohibitive complication associated with nuclear power. 43 1 Pollution 14 Though extreme care is practiced in that industry, the potential for disaster suggested by incidents such as those at Three Mile Island, Chernobyl, and Fukushima pose a lingering specter of public mistrust. 44 1 Pollution 14 Worldwide publicity has been intense on those disasters. 45 1 Pollution 14 Widespread support for test ban treaties has ended almost all nuclear testing in the atmosphere. 46 1 Pollution 15 International catastrophes such as the wreck of the Amoco Cadiz oil tanker off the coast of Brittany in 1978 and the Bhopal disaster in 1984 have demonstrated the universality of such events and the scale on which efforts to address them needed to engage. 47 1 Pollution 15 The borderless nature of atmosphere and oceans inevitably resulted in the implication of pollution on a planetary level with the issue of global warming. 48 1 Pollution 15 Most recently the term persistent organic pollutant (POP) has come to describe a group of chemicals such as PBDEs and PFCs among others. 49 1 Pollution 15 Though their effects remain somewhat less well understood owing to a lack of experimental data, they have been detected in various ecological habitats far removed from industrial activity such as the Arctic, demonstrating diffusion and bioaccumulation after only a relatively brief period of widespread use. 50 1 Pollution 15 A much more recently discovered problem is the Great Pacific Garbage Patch, a huge concentration of plastics, chemical sludge and other debris which has been collected into a large area of the Pacific Ocean by the North Pacific Gyre. 51 1 Pollution 15 This is a less well known pollution problem than the others described above, but nonetheless has multiple and serious consequences such as increasing wildlife mortality, the spread of invasive species and human ingestion of toxic chemicals. 52 1 Pollution 15 Organizations such as 5 Gyres have researched the pollution and, along with artists like Marina DeBris, are working toward publicizing the issue. 53 1 Pollution 16 Pollution introduced by light at night is becoming a global problem, more severe in urban centres, but nonetheless contaminating also large territories, far away from towns. 54 1 Pollution 17 Growing evidence of local and global pollution and an increasingly informed public over time have given rise to environmentalism and the environmental movement, which generally seek to limit human impact on the environment. 55 1 Pollution 18 The major forms of pollution are listed below along with the particular contaminant relevant to each of them: 56 1 Pollution 19 A pollutant is a waste material that pollutes air, water, or soil. 57 1 Pollution 19 Three factors determine the severity of a pollutant: its chemical nature, the concentration and the persistence. 58 1 Pollution 20 Pollution has a cost. 59 1 Pollution 20 Manufacturing activities that cause air pollution impose health and clean-up costs on the whole of society, whereas the neighbors of an individual who chooses to fire-proof his home may benefit from a reduced risk of a fire spreading to their own homes. 60 1 Pollution 20 A manufacturing activity that causes air pollution is an example of a negative externality in production. 61 1 Pollution 20 A negative externality in production occurs “when a firm’s production reduces the well-being of others who are not compensated by the firm. 62 1 Pollution 20 For example, if a laundry firm exists near a polluting steel manufacturing firm, there will be increased costs for the laundry firm because of the dirt and smoke produced by the steel manufacturing firm. 63 1 Pollution 20 If external costs exist, such as those created by pollution, the manufacturer will choose to produce more of the product than would be produced if the manufacturer were required to pay all associated environmental costs. 64 1 Pollution 20 Because responsibility or consequence for self-directed action lies partly outside the self, an element of externalization is involved. 65 1 Pollution 20 If there are external benefits, such as in public safety, less of the good may be produced than would be the case if the producer were to receive payment for the external benefits to others. 66 1 Pollution 20 However, goods and services that involve negative externalities in production, such as those that produce pollution, tend to be over-produced and underpriced since the externality is not being priced into the market. 67 1 Pollution 21 Pollution can also create costs for the firms producing the pollution. 68 1 Pollution 21 Sometimes firms choose, or are forced by regulation, to reduce the amount of pollution that they are producing. 69 1 Pollution 21 The associated costs of doing this are called abatement costs, or marginal abatement costs if measured by each additional unit. 70 1 Pollution 21 In 2005 pollution abatement capital expenditures and operating costs in the US amounted to nearly $27 billion. 71 1 Pollution 22 Society derives some indirect utility from pollution, otherwise there would be no incentive to pollute. 72 1 Pollution 22 This utility comes from the consumption of goods and services that create pollution. 73 1 Pollution 22 Therefore, it is important that policymakers attempt to balance these indirect benefits with the costs of pollution in order to achieve an efficient outcome. 74 1 Pollution 23 It is possible to use environmental economics to determine which level of pollution is deemed the social optimum. 75 1 Pollution 23 For economists, pollution is an “external cost and occurs only when one or more individuals suffer a loss of welfare,” however, there exists a socially optimal level of pollution at which welfare is maximized. 76 1 Pollution 23 This is because consumers derive utility from the good or service manufactured, which will outweigh the social cost of pollution until a certain point. 77 1 Pollution 23 At this point the damage of one extra unit of pollution to society, the marginal cost of pollution, is exactly equal to the marginal benefit of consuming one more unit of the good or service. 78 1 Pollution 24 In markets with pollution, or other negative externalities in production, the free market equilibrium will not account for the costs of pollution on society. 79 1 Pollution 24 If the social costs of pollution are higher than the private costs incurred by the firm, then the true supply curve will be higher. 80 1 Pollution 24 The point at which the social marginal cost and market demand intersect gives the socially optimal level of pollution. 81 1 Pollution 24 At this point, the quantity will be lower and the price will be higher in comparison to the free market equilibrium. 82 1 Pollution 24 Therefore, the free market outcome could be considered a market failure because it “does not maximize efficiency”. 83 1 Pollution 25 This model can be used as a basis to evaluate different methods of internalizing the externality. 84 1 Pollution 25 Some examples include tariffs, a carbon tax and cap and trade systems. 85 1 Pollution 26 Air pollution comes from both natural and human-made (anthropogenic) sources. 86 1 Pollution 26 However, globally human-made pollutants from combustion, construction, mining, agriculture and warfare are increasingly significant in the air pollution equation. 87 1 Pollution 27 Motor vehicle emissions are one of the leading causes of air pollution. 88 1 Pollution 27 China, United States, Russia, India Mexico, and Japan are the world leaders in air pollution emissions. 89 1 Pollution 27 Principal stationary pollution sources include chemical plants, coal-fired power plants, oil refineries, petrochemical plants, nuclear waste disposal activity, incinerators, large livestock farms (dairy cows, pigs, poultry, etc. 90 1 Pollution 27 ), PVC factories, metals production factories, plastics factories, and other heavy industry. 91 1 Pollution 27 Agricultural air pollution comes from contemporary practices which include clear felling and burning of natural vegetation as well as spraying of pesticides and herbicides 92 1 Pollution 28 About 400 million metric tons of hazardous wastes are generated each year. 93 1 Pollution 28 The United States alone produces about 250 million metric tons. 94 1 Pollution 28 Americans constitute less than 5% of the world's population, but produce roughly 25% of the world's , and generate approximately 30% of world's waste. 95 1 Pollution 28 In 2007, China has overtaken the United States as the world's biggest producer of , while still far behind based on per capita pollution – ranked 78th among the world's nations. 96 1 Pollution 28 In February 2007, a report by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), representing the work of 2,500 scientists, economists, and policymakers from more than 120 countries, said that humans have been the primary cause of global warming since 1950. 97 1 Pollution 28 Humans have ways to cut greenhouse gas emissions and avoid the consequences of global warming, a major climate report concluded. 98 1 Pollution 28 But to change the climate, the transition from fossil fuels like coal and oil needs to occur within decades, according to the final report this year from the UN's Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC). 99 1 Pollution 29 Some of the more common soil contaminants are chlorinated hydrocarbons (CFH), heavy metals (such as chromium, cadmium – found in rechargeable batteries, and lead – found in lead paint, aviation fuel and still in some countries, gasoline), MTBE, zinc, arsenic and benzene. 100 1 Pollution 29 "In 2001 a series of press reports culminating in a book called ""Fateful Harvest"" unveiled a widespread practice of recycling industrial byproducts into fertilizer, resulting in the contamination of the soil with various metals." 101 1 Pollution 29 Ordinary municipal landfills are the source of many chemical substances entering the soil environment (and often groundwater), emanating from the wide variety of refuse accepted, especially substances illegally discarded there, or from pre-1970 landfills that may have been subject to little control in the U.S. or EU. 102 1 Pollution 29 "There have also been some unusual releases of polychlorinated dibenzodioxins, commonly called ""dioxins"" for simplicity, such as TCDD." 103 1 Pollution 30 Pollution can also be the consequence of a natural disaster. 104 1 Pollution 30 For example, hurricanes often involve water contamination from sewage, and petrochemical spills from ruptured boats or automobiles. 105 1 Pollution 30 Larger scale and environmental damage is not uncommon when coastal oil rigs or refineries are involved. 106 1 Pollution 30 Some sources of pollution, such as nuclear power plants or oil tankers, can produce widespread and potentially hazardous releases when accidents occur. 107 1 Pollution 31 In the case of noise pollution the dominant source class is the motor vehicle, producing about ninety percent of all unwanted noise worldwide. 108 1 Pollution 32 Adverse air quality can kill many organisms including humans. 109 1 Pollution 32 Ozone pollution can cause respiratory disease, cardiovascular disease, throat inflammation, chest pain, and congestion. 110 1 Pollution 32 Water pollution causes approximately 14,000 deaths per day, mostly due to contamination of drinking water by untreated sewage in developing countries. 111 1 Pollution 32 An estimated 500 million Indians have no access to a proper toilet, Over ten million people in India fell ill with waterborne illnesses in 2013, and 1,535 people died, most of them children. 112 1 Pollution 32 Nearly 500 million Chinese lack access to safe drinking water. 113 1 Pollution 32 A 2010 analysis estimated that 1.2 million people died prematurely each year in China because of air pollution. 114 1 Pollution 32 The high smog levels China has been facing for a long time can do damage to civilians bodies and generate different diseases The WHO estimated in 2007 that air pollution causes half a million deaths per year in India. 115 1 Pollution 32 Studies have estimated that the number of people killed annually in the United States could be over 50,000. 116 1 Pollution 33 Oil spills can cause skin irritations and rashes. 117 1 Pollution 33 Noise pollution induces hearing loss, high blood pressure, stress, and sleep disturbance. 118 1 Pollution 33 Mercury has been linked to developmental deficits in children and neurologic symptoms. 119 1 Pollution 33 Older people are majorly exposed to diseases induced by air pollution. 120 1 Pollution 33 Those with heart or lung disorders are at additional risk. 121 1 Pollution 33 Children and infants are also at serious risk. 122 1 Pollution 33 Lead and other heavy metals have been shown to cause neurological problems. 123 1 Pollution 33 Chemical and radioactive substances can cause cancer and as well as birth defects. 124 1 Pollution 34 An October 2017 study by the Lancet Commission on Pollution and Health found that global pollution, specifically toxic air, water, soils and workplaces, kill nine million people annually, which is triple the number of deaths caused by AIDS, tuberculosis and malaria combined, and 15 times higher than deaths caused by wars and other forms of human violence. 125 1 Pollution 34 "The study concluded that ""pollution is one of the great existential challenges of the Anthropocene era." 126 1 Pollution 34 Pollution endangers the stability of the Earth’s support systems and threatens the continuing survival of human societies. 127 1 Pollution 35 Pollution has been found to be present widely in the environment. 128 1 Pollution 35 There are a number of effects of this: 129 1 Pollution 36 The Toxicology and Environmental Health Information Program (TEHIP) at the United States National Library of Medicine (NLM) maintains a comprehensive toxicology and environmental health web site that includes access to resources produced by TEHIP and by other government agencies and organizations. 130 1 Pollution 36 This web site includes links to databases, bibliographies, tutorials, and other scientific and consumer-oriented resources. 131 1 Pollution 36 TEHIP also is responsible for the Toxicology Data Network (TOXNET) an integrated system of toxicology and environmental health databases that are available free of charge on the web. 132 1 Pollution 37 TOXMAP is a Geographic Information System (GIS) that is part of TOXNET. 133 1 Pollution 37 TOXMAP uses maps of the United States to help users visually explore data from the United States Environmental Protection Agency's (EPA) Toxics Release Inventory and Superfund Basic Research Programs. 134 1 Pollution 38 A 2019 paper linked pollution to adverse school outcomes for children. 135 1 Pollution 39 A number of studies show that pollution has an adverse effect on the productivity of both indoor and outdoor workers. 136 1 Pollution 40 To protect the environment from the adverse effects of pollution, many nations worldwide have enacted legislation to regulate various types of pollution as well as to mitigate the adverse effects of pollution. 137 1 Pollution 41 Pollution control is a term used in environmental management. 138 1 Pollution 41 It means the control of emissions and effluents into air, water or soil. 139 1 Pollution 41 Without pollution control, the waste products from overconsumption, heating, agriculture, mining, manufacturing, transportation and other human activities, whether they accumulate or disperse, will degrade the environment. 140 1 Pollution 41 In the hierarchy of controls, pollution prevention and waste minimization are more desirable than pollution control. 141 1 Pollution 41 In the field of land development, low impact development is a similar technique for the prevention of urban runoff. 142 1 Pollution 44 The earliest precursor of pollution generated by life forms would have been a natural function of their existence. 143 1 Pollution 44 The attendant consequences on viability and population levels fell within the sphere of natural selection. 144 1 Pollution 44 These would have included the demise of a population locally or ultimately, species extinction. 145 1 Pollution 44 Processes that were untenable would have resulted in a new balance brought about by changes and adaptations. 146 1 Pollution 44 At the extremes, for any form of life, consideration of pollution is superseded by that of survival. 147 1 Pollution 45 For humankind, the factor of technology is a distinguishing and critical consideration, both as an enabler and an additional source of byproducts. 148 1 Pollution 45 Short of survival, human concerns include the range from quality of life to health hazards. 149 1 Pollution 45 Since science holds experimental demonstration to be definitive, modern treatment of toxicity or environmental harm involves defining a level at which an effect is observable. 150 1 Pollution 45 Common examples of fields where practical measurement is crucial include automobile emissions control, industrial exposure (e.g. 151 1 Pollution 45 Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) PELs), toxicology (e.g. 152 1 Pollution 45 ), and medicine (e.g. 153 1 Pollution 45 medication and radiation doses). 154 1 Pollution 46 "The solution to pollution is dilution"", is a dictum which summarizes a traditional approach to pollution management whereby sufficiently diluted pollution is not harmful." 155 1 Pollution 46 It is well-suited to some other modern, locally scoped applications such as laboratory safety procedure and hazardous material release emergency management. 156 1 Pollution 46 But it assumes that the dilutant is in virtually unlimited supply for the application or that resulting dilutions are acceptable in all cases. 157 1 Pollution 47 Such simple treatment for environmental pollution on a wider scale might have had greater merit in earlier centuries when physical survival was often the highest imperative, human population and densities were lower, technologies were simpler and their byproducts more benign. 158 1 Pollution 47 But these are often no longer the case. 159 1 Pollution 47 Furthermore, advances have enabled measurement of concentrations not possible before. 160 1 Pollution 47 The use of statistical methods in evaluating outcomes has given currency to the principle of probable harm in cases where assessment is warranted but resorting to deterministic models is impractical or infeasible. 161 1 Pollution 47 In addition, consideration of the environment beyond direct impact on human beings has gained prominence. 162 1 Pollution 48 Yet in the absence of a superseding principle, this older approach predominates practices throughout the world. 163 1 Pollution 48 It is the basis by which to gauge concentrations of effluent for legal release, exceeding which penalties are assessed or restrictions applied. 164 1 Pollution 48 One such superseding principle is contained in modern hazardous waste laws in developed countries, as the process of diluting hazardous waste to make it non-hazardous is usually a regulated treatment process. 165 1 Pollution 48 Migration from pollution dilution to elimination in many cases can be confronted by challenging economical and technological barriers. 166 1 Pollution 49 Carbon dioxide, while vital for photosynthesis, is sometimes referred to as pollution, because raised levels of the gas in the atmosphere are affecting the Earth's climate. 167 1 Pollution 49 Disruption of the environment can also highlight the connection between areas of pollution that would normally be classified separately, such as those of water and air. 168 1 Pollution 49 Recent studies have investigated the potential for long-term rising levels of atmospheric carbon dioxide to cause slight but critical increases in the acidity of ocean waters, and the possible effects of this on marine ecosystems. 169 1 Pollution 50 The Pure Earth, an international non-for-profit organization dedicated to eliminating life-threatening pollution in the developing world, issues an annual list of some of the world's most polluting industries. 170 1 Pollution 51 A 2018 report by the Institute for Agriculture and Trade Policy and GRAIN says that the meat and dairy industries are poised to surpass the oil industry as the world's worst polluters. 171 1 Pollution 52 Pure Earth issues an annual list of some of the world's worst polluted places. 172 1 Alexis Rockman 1 Alexis Rockman (born 1962) is an American contemporary artist known for his paintings that provide depictions of future landscapes as they might exist with impacts of climate change and evolution influenced by genetic engineering. 173 1 Alexis Rockman 1 He has exhibited his work in the United States since 1985, including a 2004 exhibition at the Brooklyn Museum, and internationally since 1989. 174 1 Alexis Rockman 1 Alexis Rockman lives in New York City, and works out of a studio in the city's TriBeCa neighborhood. 175 1 Alexis Rockman 2 Rockman was born and grew up in New York City. 176 1 Alexis Rockman 2 Rockman's stepfather, an Australian jazz musician, brought the family to Australia frequently. 177 1 Alexis Rockman 2 As a child, Rockman frequented the American Museum of Natural History in New York City, where his mother, Diana Wall, worked for anthropologist Margaret Mead. 178 1 Alexis Rockman 2 Rockman has a particular fascination with cockroaches and rats, and admires their ability to shadow human civilization. 179 1 Alexis Rockman 3 Growing up, Rockman had an interest in natural history and science, and developed fascination for film, animation, and the arts. 180 1 Alexis Rockman 3 From 1980 to 1982, Rockman studied animation at the Rhode Island School of Design, and continued art studies at the School of Visual Arts in Manhattan, receiving a BFA in fine arts in 1985. 181 1 Alexis Rockman 4 Aside from his art career, Rockman has taken on requests from conservation groups, including the Riverkeeper project, which has fought against pollution of the Hudson River. 182 1 Alexis Rockman 5 In the mid and late-1980s, Rockman began exhibiting his work at the Jay Gorney Modern Art Gallery in New York City in the East Village and relocated to SoHo in 1988. 183 1 Alexis Rockman 5 Rockman also had exhibitions at galleries in Los Angeles, Boston, and Philadelphia in the late 1980s. 184 1 Alexis Rockman 5 "In ""Phylum"", Rockman draws upon the work of Ernst Haeckel, a proponent of Darwinism." 185 1 Alexis Rockman 5 "In 1992, Rockman painted his first mural, ""Evolution""." 186 1 Alexis Rockman 6 "A series of works by Rockman in the early 1990s, including ""Barnyard Scene"" (1990), ""Jungle Fever"" (1991), ""The Trough"" (1992), and ""Biosphere: Laboratory"" (1993), use dark humor in depicting different species mating with one another." 187 1 Alexis Rockman 6 "In ""Barnyard Scene"", Rockman depicts a raccoon mating with a rooster, and ""Jungle Fever"" shows a praying mantis mating with a chipmunk." 188 1 Alexis Rockman 6 "In the ""Biosphere"" series of paintings, Rockman alludes to the Biosphere 2 project in Arizona and envisions a situation where the Earth has become too toxic for human life, so life only exists in strangely mutated forms inside geodesic-dome structures." 189 1 Alexis Rockman 6 "Biosphere"" uses references from science fiction cinema, particularly the opening scene of the 1971 film ""Silent Running""', as well as Stanley Kubrick's ""2001"", and Ridley Scott's ""Alien""." 190 1 Alexis Rockman 6 "Biosphere: The Ocean"" (1994), influenced by H. R. Giger's work, depicts a shark with a long, bionic sawfish beak, suited for tearing through its food." 191 1 Alexis Rockman 7 "In 1993, Rockman created ""Still Life"", a still life depiction of a pile of fish and marine specimens, evoking reference to 1935 horror James Whale film ""Bride of Frankenstein"" and films by Luis Buñuel." 192 1 Alexis Rockman 7 "In ""Still Life"", Rockman alludes to the ""Wunderkammer"", placing ""aberrant contents"" amidst a Baroque still life scene, which traditionally is abundant with wealth and goods from Dutch and Spanish colonies." 193 1 Alexis Rockman 8 Many of Alexis Rockman's works have been inspired by his travels around the world, including to Costa Rica, Brazil, Madagascar, Guyana, Tasmania, and Antarctica. 194 1 Alexis Rockman 8 Rockman traveled to Guyana in 1994 with fellow artist Mark Dion, resulting in numerous paintings of the flora and fauna that he observed. 195 1 Alexis Rockman 8 For the 1994 trip, he strictly painted works that depicted what he saw, with particular interest in various types of insects. 196 1 Alexis Rockman 8 "Neblina"" (1995), one of the last works resulting from the Guyana trip, was painted after the collapse of a tailings dam at the Omni gold mine in Guyana, resulting in cyanide leaking into the waterway." 197 1 Alexis Rockman 8 Neblina shows wildlife huddled together high in tree branches. 198 1 Alexis Rockman 8 Rockman returned to Guyana in 1998, and his works from that trip focused on aspects of ecotourism. 199 1 Alexis Rockman 8 "Rockman traveled to Antarctica in 2008 with Dorothy Spears, and works resulting from this voyage were featured in the ""Badlands: New Horizons in Landscape"" exhibit at the Massachusetts Museum of Contemporary Art." 200 1 Alexis Rockman 9 "Rockman's interest in science lead to a book collaboration with scientist and author Peter Douglass Ward called ""Future Evolution"", which was published in 2001." 201 1 Alexis Rockman 9 Rockman and Ward collaborated, with Ward writing the text and Rockman creating the images. 202 1 Alexis Rockman 9 Rockman and Ward portray the future as abundant with plants and animals, but they are descendants of weedy species or feral domestics. 203 1 Alexis Rockman 10 "Rockman's painting ""The Farm"" was exhibited at the Exit Art Gallery in New York City in 2000, as part of the ""Paradise Now"" exhibition." 204 1 Alexis Rockman 10 The work depicts various animals and plants in a soybean field, and how they may appear in the future, as a result of genetic engineering. 205 1 Alexis Rockman 10 "The work illustrates how our culture perceives and interacts with plants and animals and the role culture plays in impacting the direction of natural history.In his painting, ""The Farm"", rows of soybean plants extend toward the horizon." 206 1 Alexis Rockman 10 “The way I constructed it is that, as in a lot of Western cultures, we read things from left to right.”. 207 1 Alexis Rockman 10 “On the left side of the image are the ancestral species of the chicken, the pig, the cow, and the mouse”; on the right, their contemporary versions. 208 1 Alexis Rockman 10 Farther to the right are “permutations of what things might look like in the future.” The choice of a soybean field as his subject is fitting since soybeans are the most common, genetically modified crop. 209 1 Alexis Rockman 10 A pig becomes obese with images of a heart, lungs, and liver imposed on its side. 210 1 Alexis Rockman 10 A tiny hairless mouse scavenges while a human ear grows out of its back. 211 1 Alexis Rockman 10 A rooster sits upon a fence pole, its six wings pressed against its side. 212 1 Alexis Rockman 10 For this work, Rockman consulted with molecular biologist Rob DeSalle at the American Museum of Natural History. 213 1 Alexis Rockman 10 "The Farm"" lead to a residency and a body of work of four other 8x10' paintings called ""Wonderful World"", which was shown at the Camden Art Center in London in 2004." 214 1 Alexis Rockman 10 In Rockman's wonderful world series he paints vast vistas depicting futuristic visions of genetically engineered species. 215 1 Alexis Rockman 11 "Manifest Destiny"" 2004" 216 1 Alexis Rockman 12 "In 2004, the Brooklyn Museum featured ""Manifest Destiny"", an 8-by-24-foot oil-on-wood mural by Rockman as a centerpiece for the second-floor Mezzanine Gallery and marking the opening of the renovated Grand Lobby and plaza at the museum." 217 1 Alexis Rockman 12 "Manifest Destiny"" portrays the Brooklyn waterfront amidst tropical vegetation and absent any humans, in the year 5004, after climate change has caused catastrophic sea level rise." 218 1 Alexis Rockman 12 Rockman sketched out initial ideas for the mural in January 2000, and Brooklyn Museum director Arnold L. Lehman officially commissioned the mural in 2002. 219 1 Alexis Rockman 12 Rockman began work on the mural in March 2003, consulting with experts in various fields, including Peter Ward and scientists at Columbia University's Goddard Institute for Space Studies, as well as architects Diane Lewis and Chris Morris. 220 1 Alexis Rockman 12 Rockman shows the outcome 3000 years in the future, depicting tropical plants, mutated fish and sea creatures glowing with radioactivity amidst the ruins of buildings, the Brooklyn Bridge, the wrecks of a Dutch sailing ship and a 20th-century submarine. 221 1 Alexis Rockman 12 Rockman's project suggests what the remote geological, botanical, and zoological future might bring, predicting the ecosystem of the area thousands of years ahead. 222 1 Alexis Rockman 12 This mural was exhibited from April 2004–September 2004 at the Brooklyn Museum of Art. 223 1 Alexis Rockman 13 "Cincinnati's Contemporary Arts Center featured works by Rockman and Tony Matelli in the 2007 exhibition, ""Baroque Biology""." 224 1 Alexis Rockman 13 "In ""Romantic Attachments"", Rockman portrays, in an allegorical manner, a male ""Homo georgicus"" together with a female human in a romantic encounter." 225 1 Alexis Rockman 13 "The ""Homo georgicus"" dates from 1.8 million years ago, intermediate in the evolutionary timeline between ""Homo habilis"" and ""H. erectus""." 226 1 Alexis Rockman 13 "In ""Romantic Attachments"", Rockman references Gian Lorenzo Bernini's sculpture ""Ecstasy of Saint Theresa"", depicting the torch-bearing male ""Homo georgicus"" in place of Bernini's spear-bearing male angel towering over a female, who in both Bernini's and Rockman's work is portrayed in a sexual manner." 227 1 Alexis Rockman 13 "Sculptor and paleoartist Viktor Deak created two reference models for Rockman of a male ""Homo georgicus""." 228 1 Alexis Rockman 14 "From November 2010 to May 8, 2011, ""Alexis Rockman: A Fable for Tomorrow"", was featured at the Smithsonian American Art Museum The exhibition, the first to survey Rockman's career, presented 47 paintings and works on paper by Rockman." 229 1 Alexis Rockman 14 "The title of the exhibition refers to the title of the first chapter of Rachel Carson's book ""Silent Spring""." 230 1 Alexis Rockman 14 "As of Autumn Quarter 2011, this exhibition is currently being hosted at the Wexner Center for the Arts at The Ohio State University in Columbus, Ohio, which previously hosted prints of ""Evolution"" and ""Manifest Destiny""." 231 1 Alexis Rockman 15 At an October 23 lecture at the College of the Holy Cross, Rockman discussed his involvement in the then upcoming Ang Lee film Life of Pi. 232 1 Alexis Rockman 15 "He completed several watercolor concept paintings and contributed to several visual sequences, including an underwater transition scene which he claims was inspired by the ""Star Gate"" sequence in Stanley Kubrick's 1968 film ." 233 1 Alexis Rockman 16 In his work, Rockman uses the language of natural history to examine our relationship to it as a culture. 234 1 Alexis Rockman 16 "He is influenced by the 19th century Hudson River School, and identifies his work as pop art, ""using natural history as his iconography""." 235 1 Alexis Rockman 16 Rockman has sometimes been associated with a New Gothic Art movement His work is also seen in pop art by using natural history as a motif. 236 1 Alexis Rockman 17 Hudson River School artists portrayed American landscapes, in a utopian way, as a haven for Europeans escaping oppression. 237 1 Alexis Rockman 17 Rockman turns this idea upside down, depicting apocalyptic scenes, while incorporating realism of the Hudson River School. 238 1 Alexis Rockman 17 "Influences include Albert Bierstadt's ""Storm in the Rocky Mountains, Mt." 239 1 Alexis Rockman 17 "Rosalie"", which depicts landscapes of the western United States before the culmination of Manifest Destiny when railroads linked the Pacific and Atlantic coasts." 240 1 Alexis Rockman 17 "Hudson River School artists Thomas Cole and Frederic Edwin Church also inspired Rockman, particularly Cole's painting ""The Course of Empire – Desolation""." 241 1 Alexis Rockman 18 Other early influences for Rockman included the artwork and dioramas featured at the American Museum of Natural History. 242 1 Alexis Rockman 18 He has also spent extensive time studying old field guides and other such material. 243 1 Alexis Rockman 19 Rockman is also influenced by film and animation, and has admiration for the work of various film designers, particularly the science fiction genre. 244 1 Alexis Rockman 19 "Rockman admires the work of Syd Mead, designer for the film ""Blade Runner"", fantasy art and science fiction illustrator Chesley Bonestell, and Jan Švankmajer; stop motion animators including Willis O'Brien, Ray Harryhausen, Brothers Quay; and various Eastern European avant-garde filmmakers." 245 1 Alexis Rockman 19 "Jonathan Crary, Columbia University professor, sees similarities between Rockman and artists Piero di Cosimo, Albrecht Altdorfer, Edward Hicks, Théodore Rousseau, Joan Miró (""The Ploughed Field"" or ""The Hunter""), and Yves Tanguy." 246 1 Alexis Rockman 19 Crary notes how Rockman combines imaginary and visionary portrayal in an allegorical manner with scientific basis, study of the natural world, and experimental hypothesis. 247 1 Alexis Rockman 20 "Rockman also drew inspiration from Chesley Bonestell's 1950 ""Collier's"" magazine illustration ""Atom Bombing of New York City"", which depicts Manhattan amidst destruction and a glowing orange aura of an atomic bomb." 248 1 Alexis Rockman 21 People that have influenced Rockman include Stephen Jay Gould, whom Rockman met and later wrote two essays about Rockman's work for the monograph published by Monacelli Press. 249 1 Alexis Rockman 21 Charles R. Knight has a special place in Rockman's development, as he almost single-handedly created the genre of reconstructions of extinct ecosystems. 250 1 Alexis Rockman 22 Some of Rockman's more recent works, including paintings featured in the 2008 Rose Art Museum exhibition, featured a more semi-abstract style than some of Rockman's earlier work that give traditional representation, creating some tension between the styles. 251 1 Alexis Rockman 22 "In reviewing Rockman's 2008 Rose Art Museum exhibition, ""The Weight of Air"", ""The Boston Globe"" art critic Sebastian Smee describes Rockman's work as exhibiting a clash of abstract and his earlier styles, producing ""a kind of distraction – a desire in the mind's eye to marry them that is continually frustrated,"" he though praised Rockman for taking on such subject matter." 252 1 Alexis Rockman 22 "While Smee found some of Rockman's work overly jarring with clashing styles, Smee praised other pieces, including ""Wind Regime"" (2007), describing it as a ""stunning painting""." 253 1 Carbon Trust 1 The Carbon Trust has a stated mission to accelerate the move to a sustainable, low carbon economy. 254 1 Carbon Trust 1 It was established in 2001 as a collaboration between government and business in the UK, and has since expanded to operate globally. 255 1 Carbon Trust 2 The Carbon Trust helps reduce carbon emissions and increase resource efficiency through providing specialist help, support and advice. 256 1 Carbon Trust 2 It has operations and projects across the globe, supporting companies and organisations wherever help is needed. 257 1 Carbon Trust 2 Office bases include London , Amsterdam, Cardiff, Edinburgh, Beijing, Pretoria, Mexico City and Singapore. 258 1 Carbon Trust 3 The Carbon Trust looks at current and future sustainability challenges and works with business and organisations to develop sustainable strategies to deliver savings. 259 1 Carbon Trust 4 The Carbon Trust provides voluntary carbon certification services and carbon labelling schemes – it verifies organisation and product carbon footprint data and provides marks of quality to organisations to demonstrate standards have been met. 260 1 Carbon Trust 5 The Carbon Trust works with governments, innovators and corporates with the aim of accelerating the commercialisation of low carbon technologies, and leads projects to deliver commercial partnerships and develop low carbon technologies. 261 1 Carbon Trust 5 It is particularly active in the areas of offshore wind, marine energy, fuel cell development and industrial energy efficiency. 262 1 Carbon Trust 5 One such project is the Offshore Wind Accelerator, which is aimed at reducing the cost of wind power through projects focused in the North Sea. 263 1 Carbon Trust 5 The Offshore Wind Accelerator is a partnership between industry and governments. 264 1 Carbon Trust 6 The Carbon Trust provides analysis on sustainability issues to help businesses, investors and policy makers with their roles in reducing carbon and saving energy. 265 1 Carbon Trust 6 It works with companies and governments across the world. 266 1 Carbon Trust 7 The Carbon Trust runs a series of environmental standards that certify measurement and reduction. 267 1 Carbon Trust 7 Currently these cover carbon, water and waste and have been awarded to hundreds of leading companies and organisations across the world. 268 1 Carbon Trust 8 In June 2008 the Carbon Trust introduced the Carbon Trust Carbon Standard to address what it describes as business greenwash. 269 1 Carbon Trust 8 The Carbon Trust Carbon Standard is only awarded to companies and organisations who measure and reduce their carbon emissions year on year. 270 1 Carbon Trust 8 Examples of organisations who have held the Carbon Standard include Sky, Aldi, Eurotunnel, Bupa, Pricewaterhousecoopers, Samsung Electronics, Angus Council, Capital & Regional, O2, RWE npower, Credit Suisse, Scottish Government and the UK DECC. 271 1 Carbon Trust 9 In February 2013 the Carbon Trust introduced the Carbon Trust Water Standard to recognise those companies reducing their water use year on year. 272 1 Carbon Trust 9 The first four companies to receive the Water Standard were Sainsbury's, Coca-Cola Enterprises Ltd, Sunlight Services Group, and Branston. 273 1 Carbon Trust 10 In July 2013 the Carbon Trust introduced the Carbon Trust Waste Standard. 274 1 Carbon Trust 10 In November 2013 the waste standard was awarded to the first wave of organisations, which included the Football Association, Renishaw plc, Whitbread, Pricewaterhousecoopers and AkzoNobel Decorative Paints. 275 1 Carbon Trust 10 These last three became the first in the world to gain the triple crown of reaching the carbon, water and waste standard. 276 1 Carbon Trust 11 In 2015 the Carbon Trust launched the Carbon Trust Supply Chain Standard to look at carbon footprints across the supply chain. 277 1 Carbon Trust 11 It is the world’s first independent certification for organisations that are measuring, managing and reducing greenhouse gas (CO2e) emissions in their supply chains. 278 1 Carbon Trust 11 The Carbon Trust helps companies to measure the carbon emissions associated with their products (embodied emissions) and also provides a label for these products carbon footprint. 279 1 Carbon Trust 11 Measuring the embodied emissions of products enables reductions to be identified and achieved across the supply chain. 280 1 Carbon Trust 11 The label demonstrates a commitment by the product owner to reduce that footprint every two years. 281 1 Carbon Trust 11 The Carbon Reduction Label was introduced in March 2007. 282 1 Carbon Trust 12 Examples of products that have featured their carbon footprint are Kingsmill bread, Quorn foods, Evian water, Silver Spoon sugar, Walkers crisps, a range of own brand products in Tesco supermarkets, Halifax (HBOS) bank accounts, Dyson airblades, Marshalls building products, Quaker oats, Lafarge cement, and Pompeian Olive Oil. 283 1 Carbon Trust 13 The standards behind carbon labelling are now formally recognised through the PAS 2050 developed by the Carbon Trust in conjunction with BSI and Defra. 284 1 Carbon Trust 13 This methodology is now gaining international acceptance following its launch in October 2008. 285 1 Carbon Trust 14 The Carbon Trust also supports the development and deployment of low carbon technologies and is actively engaged in the fuel cell, wave energy, wind energy, solar energy, biomass and biofuels sectors. 286 1 Carbon Trust 14 It has a particularly active role in the Offshore Wind sector through its Offshore Wind Accelerator programme. 287 1 Carbon Trust 15 The Carbon Trust is also involved in other finance schemes including interest-free loans for small and medium-sized enterprises available for energy-efficient equipment in Wales and a funding scheme for small business across Great Britain - the Green Business Fund. 288 1 Global temperature record 1 The global temperature record shows the fluctuations of the temperature of the atmosphere and the oceans through various spans of time. 289 1 Global temperature record 1 The most detailed information exists since 1850, when methodical thermometer-based records began. 290 1 Global temperature record 1 There are numerous estimates of temperatures since the end of the Pleistocene glaciation, particularly during the current Holocene epoch. 291 1 Global temperature record 1 Older time periods are studied by paleoclimatology. 292 1 Global temperature record 2 Weather balloon radiosonde measurements of atmospheric temperature at various altitudes begin to show an approximation of global coverage in the 1950s. 293 1 Global temperature record 2 Since December 1978, microwave sounding units on satellites have produced data which can be used to infer temperatures in the troposphere. 294 1 Global temperature record 3 Several groups have analyzed the satellite data to calculate temperature trends in the troposphere. 295 1 Global temperature record 3 Both the University of Alabama in Huntsville (UAH) and the private, NASA funded, corporation Remote Sensing Systems RSS (RSS) find an upward trend. 296 1 Global temperature record 4 For the lower troposphere, UAH found a global average trend between 1978 and 2019 of 0.130 degrees Celsius per decade. 297 1 Global temperature record 4 RSS found a trend of 0.148 degrees Celsius per decade, to January 2011. 298 1 Global temperature record 5 In 2004 Fu et al. 299 1 Global temperature record 5 found trends of +0.19  degrees Celsius per decade when applied to the RSS dataset. 300 1 Global temperature record 5 Vinnikov and Grody found 0.20  degrees Celsius per decade up between 1978 and 2005, since which the dataset has not been updated. 301 1 Global temperature record 6 Detailed information exists since 1850, when methodical thermometer-based records began. 302 1 Global temperature record 7 Proxy measurements can be used to reconstruct the temperature record before the historical period. 303 1 Global temperature record 7 Quantities such as tree ring widths, coral growth, isotope variations in ice cores, ocean and lake sediments, cave deposits, fossils, ice cores, borehole temperatures, and glacier length records are correlated with climatic fluctuations. 304 1 Global temperature record 7 From these, proxy temperature reconstructions of the last 2000 years have been performed for the northern hemisphere, and over shorter time scales for the southern hemisphere and tropics. 305 1 Global temperature record 8 Geographic coverage by these proxies is necessarily sparse, and various proxies are more sensitive to faster fluctuations. 306 1 Global temperature record 8 For example, tree rings, ice cores, and corals generally show variation on an annual time scale, but borehole reconstructions rely on rates of thermal diffusion, and small scale fluctuations are washed out. 307 1 Global temperature record 8 Even the best proxy records contain far fewer observations than the worst periods of the observational record, and the spatial and temporal resolution of the resulting reconstructions is correspondingly coarse. 308 1 Global temperature record 8 Connecting the measured proxies to the variable of interest, such as temperature or rainfall, is highly non-trivial. 309 1 Global temperature record 8 Data sets from multiple complementary proxies covering overlapping time periods and areas are reconciled to produce the final reconstructions. 310 1 Global temperature record 9 Proxy reconstructions extending back 2,000 years have been performed, but reconstructions for the last 1,000 years are supported by more and higher quality independent data sets. 311 1 Global temperature record 9 These reconstructions indicate: 312 1 Global temperature record 10 As well as natural, numerical proxies (tree-ring widths, for example) there exist records from the human historical period that can be used to infer climate variations, including: reports of frost fairs on the Thames; records of good and bad harvests; dates of spring blossom or lambing; extraordinary falls of rain and snow; and unusual floods or droughts. 313 1 Global temperature record 10 Such records can be used to infer historical temperatures, but generally in a more qualitative manner than natural proxies. 314 1 Global temperature record 11 Recent evidence suggests that a sudden and short-lived climatic shift between 2200 and 2100 BCE occurred in the region between Tibet and Iceland, with some evidence suggesting a global change. 315 1 Global temperature record 11 The result was a cooling and reduction in precipitation. 316 1 Global temperature record 11 This is believed to be a primary cause of the collapse of the Old Kingdom of Egypt. 317 1 Global temperature record 12 Many estimates of past temperatures have been made over Earth's history. 318 1 Global temperature record 12 The field of paleoclimatology includes ancient temperature records. 319 1 Global temperature record 12 As the present article is oriented toward recent temperatures, there is a focus here on events since the retreat of the Pleistocene glaciers. 320 1 Global temperature record 12 The 10,000 years of the Holocene epoch covers most of this period, since the end of the Northern Hemisphere's Younger Dryas millennium-long cooling. 321 1 Global temperature record 12 The Holocene Climatic Optimum was generally warmer than the 20th century, but numerous regional variations have been noted since the start of the Younger Dryas. 322 1 Global temperature record 13 Even longer term records exist for few sites: the recent Antarctic EPICA core reaches 800 kyr; many others reach more than 100,000 years. 323 1 Global temperature record 13 The EPICA core covers eight glacial/interglacial cycles. 324 1 Global temperature record 13 The NGRIP core from Greenland stretches back more than 100 kyr, with 5 kyr in the Eemian interglacial. 325 1 Global temperature record 13 Whilst the large-scale signals from the cores are clear, there are problems interpreting the detail, and connecting the isotopic variation to the temperature signal. 326 1 Global temperature record 14 On longer time scales, sediment cores show that the cycles of glacials and interglacials are part of a deepening phase within a prolonged ice age that began with the glaciation of Antarctica approximately 40 million years ago. 327 1 Global temperature record 14 This deepening phase, and the accompanying cycles, largely began approximately 3 million years ago with the growth of continental ice sheets in the Northern Hemisphere. 328 1 Global temperature record 14 Gradual changes in Earth's climate of this kind have been frequent during the Earth's 4500 million year existence and most often are attributed to changes in the configuration of continents and ocean sea ways. 329 1 Myron Ebell 1 Myron Ebell is the Director of Global Warming and International Environmental Policy at the Competitive Enterprise Institute (CEI), a libertarian advocacy group based in Washington, D.C. 330 1 Myron Ebell 1 "He is also the chairman of the Cooler Heads Coalition, a loose coalition formed in 1997 which presents itself as ""focused on dispelling the myths of global warming by exposing flawed economic, scientific, and risk analysis""." 331 1 Myron Ebell 2 In these organizations, Ebell has been central in promoting climate change denial, distributing his views to the media and politicians. 332 1 Myron Ebell 2 Ebell, who is not a scientist, has been described as a climate change skeptic, a climate contrarian and a climate change denier. 333 1 Myron Ebell 2 "Ebell claims that he advocates ""for sensible energy policies that benefit everyone." 334 1 Myron Ebell 2 Instead of policies that simply reacts [sic] to alarmism. 335 1 Myron Ebell 3 In September 2016, Ebell was appointed by then Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump to lead his transition team for the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). 336 1 Myron Ebell 4 Ebell grew up on a cattle ranch at Baker City, Oregon, which was first homesteaded by the Ebells in the 1860s, and is still held by his relatives. 337 1 Myron Ebell 4 In 1971 he went to Colorado College, where he majored in philosophy and then obtained a master's degree in political theory from the London School of Economics. 338 1 Myron Ebell 4 Ebell undertook further postgraduate research at the University of California at San Diego and at Cambridge University before returning to the United States where he worked in a succession of public-policy jobs in Washington. 339 1 Myron Ebell 5 Around 1988 he bought a house in Prince George's County, Maryland. 340 1 Myron Ebell 5 He worked as assistant to the chairman of the National Taxpayers Union, and by 1990 he was a lobbyist representing the National Inholders Association, campaigning against federal policies which restricted property owners in U.S. national parks and national forests. 341 1 Myron Ebell 5 He worked for this organisation, which was renamed the American Land Rights Association (ALRA), on such policy topics as tobacco regulation and endangered species. 342 1 Myron Ebell 5 In 1995 he sent a nine-page memo to staff at the United States House Committee on Natural Resources opposing Newt Gingrich's proposals to reform the Endangered Species Act (ESA). 343 1 Myron Ebell 5 "Ebell wrote that Gingrich's ""soft feelings for cuddly little critters is still going to be a big problem"", and ""We are going to need to get some of the freshmen and women to work on him." 344 1 Myron Ebell 5 Ebell became a senior legislative assistant to Republican Representative John Shadegg and advocated the elimination of federal conservation regulations, leaving protection of the environment in the hands of state and local officials. 345 1 Myron Ebell 6 In December 1995, he was hired as policy director of Senator Malcolm Wallop's recently founded Frontiers of Freedom Institute. 346 1 Myron Ebell 6 "Wallop described Ebell as having ""a broad background in public policy with a concentration on land use, environmental and tax policy." 347 1 Myron Ebell 6 "He is widely considered the key staff member responsible for and author of the ""Shandegg"" bill reform of the ESA." 348 1 Myron Ebell 6 Frontiers of Freedom promoted property rights and criticized environmental regulations such as the Endangered Species Act. 349 1 Myron Ebell 7 "In the 1990s, while serving as Policy Director at the Frontiers of Freedom Institute, Ebell worked as part of a team to make regulating the tobacco industry ""politically unpalatable""." 350 1 Myron Ebell 7 "In 2011, as part of its ""Control Abuse of Power"" (CAP) project, the CEI launched lawsuits challenging the constitutionality of the 1998 tobacco Master Settlement Agreement (MSA)." 351 1 Myron Ebell 8 "At a meeting on April 3, 1998, Ebell was one of 12 public relations experts and think-tank representatives who produced what they called their ""Global Climate Science Communications"" plan, with the aim of persuading ""a majority of the American public"" that ""significant uncertainties exist in climate science"", intending to convince the public and policymakers that the science was faulty and could be ignored." 352 1 Myron Ebell 8 ExxonMobil, the coal utility Southern Company and the American Petroleum Institute were represented at the meeting, and there were proposals for industry funding. 353 1 Myron Ebell 8 "Ebell has been referred to as a ""public-policy wonk—not, he hastens to clarify, a lobbyist for the energy industry, as many of his fellow skeptics are, or a scientist whose research is underwritten by the energy industry, or a politician who takes contributions from the energy industry." 354 1 Myron Ebell 9 After this meeting, ExxonMobil, even though aware as early as 1981 that fossil fuels affected climate change, began funding Frontiers of Freedom, where Ebell was a staff member. 355 1 Myron Ebell 9 In 1999 Ebell transferred to the Competitive Enterprise Institute (CEI), and from 1998 to 2005 ExxonMobil provided CEI with over $2 million of funding. 356 1 Myron Ebell 9 "On October 27, 2006, Democratic senator Jay Rockefeller and Republican senator Olympia Snowe sent a joint bipartisan letter to Rex Tillerson, the new CEO of ExxonMobil, about its funding of various groups, stating ""We fervently hope that reports that ExxonMobil intends to end its funding of the climate change denial campaign of the Competitive Enterprise Institute are true." 357 1 Myron Ebell 9 "In 2007, Ebell said funding had no relevance as ""We're not beholden to our donors, because we don't say, 'If you give us this money, we'll do this project',"" and said ""I can't even quite tell you who supports us on global warming""." 358 1 Myron Ebell 9 At that time, CEI had funding from the American Petroleum Institute, the Dow Chemical Company, Eli Lilly and Company, and William A. Dunn of Dunn Capital Management. 359 1 Myron Ebell 9 During an August 2015 discussion on C-SPAN, Ebell did not dispute the statement by Jeremy Symons of the Environmental Defense Fund (EDF) that CEI received funds from the Murray Energy Corporation coal mining group. 360 1 Myron Ebell 9 Ebell responded that his group's total budget of about $6 million was far smaller than that of EDF. 361 1 Myron Ebell 10 "Ebell has falsely claimed that ""the rate of warming according to the data is much slower than the models used by the IPCC." 362 1 Myron Ebell 10 Climate scientists note that past climate models have accurately predicted subsequent rates of global warming. 363 1 Myron Ebell 11 Ebell has opposed the Clean Power Plan developed by the Environmental Protection Agency. 364 1 Myron Ebell 11 The plan entailed far-reaching regulations that seek to reduce carbon emissions from electricity generation especially by coal-burning power plants. 365 1 Myron Ebell 11 The plan has been tied up in legal proceedings since it was finalized in 2015; Ebell argues that the plan is harmful to the economy and illegal. 366 1 Myron Ebell 12 "In September 2016, the ""Washington Times"" quoted Ebell as saying ""Congress should prohibit any funding for the Paris Climate Agreement, the Green Climate Fund, and the underlying UN Framework Convention on Climate Change." 367 1 Myron Ebell 13 The first National Climate Assessment was prepared over several years. 368 1 Myron Ebell 13 "ExxonMobil did not participate in public consultations, but on August 10, 2000, ran an advertisement in the ""Washington Post"" raising various objections to a draft." 369 1 Myron Ebell 13 The report was delivered to Congress in November 2000. 370 1 Myron Ebell 13 The incoming George W. Bush administration appointed moderate Republican Christine Todd Whitman as chair of the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), and American Petroleum Institute lobbyist Philip Cooney as chief of staff of the Council on Environmental Quality (CEQ). 371 1 Myron Ebell 13 During the campaign, Bush had promised to cap carbon dioxide emissions. 372 1 Myron Ebell 13 Shortly after the inauguration Ebell heard a rumor that Bush was going to repeat the pledge in a speech. 373 1 Myron Ebell 13 "Ebell contacted Robert Novak who was due to interview Whitman, and Novak questioned her on CNN's ""Crossfire""." 374 1 Myron Ebell 13 It became a hot topic, and CEI circulated it to anyone with influence. 375 1 Myron Ebell 13 Bush dropped the pledge, and in March withdrew from the Kyoto Protocol. 376 1 Myron Ebell 14 "In line with the ""Global Climate Science Communications"" plan to manufacture uncertainty, Cooney edited the EPA's 2002 US Climate Action Report before sending it to the UN in May, but on June 3, 2002, the ""New York Times"" headlined its story ""U.S. Sees Problems In Climate Change"", saying in a ""stark shift"" the administration ""for the first time mostly blames human actions for recent global warming""." 377 1 Myron Ebell 14 "That same day, Cooney contacted Ebell, who emailed back ""I know you're in crisis mode"", and advised ""what we can do is limited until there is an official statement from the administration repudiating the report""." 378 1 Myron Ebell 14 "On June 4 Bush dismissed the report as something ""put out by the bureaucracy"", and said policy was unchanged." 379 1 Myron Ebell 14 "Ebell had said in his email that ""the folks at EPA are the obvious fall guys"", to be tackled ""high up as possible""." 380 1 Myron Ebell 14 "He had already given several interviews ""blaming EPA for freelancing"", and ""Perhaps tomorrow we will call for Whitman to be fired." 381 1 Myron Ebell 14 She eventually resigned the EPA chair in May 2003. 382 1 Myron Ebell 15 "The recently introduced Data Quality Act had already been used by industry to suppress scientific information, and on August 6, 2003, the CEI sued the Bush administration's Office of Science and Technology Policy under the Act, demanding that it should invalidate the National Assessment as allegedly inaccurate, biased and not based on ""sound science"", and should also invalidate the Climate Action Report which was based on the Assessment." 383 1 Myron Ebell 15 The attorneys general of Maine and Connecticut obtained documents including Ebell's June 2002 email through a Freedom of Information Act request. 384 1 Myron Ebell 15 "On August 11, they asked the U.S. Justice Department under John Ashcroft to investigate – Connecticut Attorney General Richard Blumenthal said the email ""indicates a secret initiative by the administration to invite and orchestrate a lawsuit against itself to discredit an official United States government report on global warming dangers"", which could be improper and possibly illegal; G. Steven Rowe as attorney general of Maine said ""The idea that the Bush administration may have invited a lawsuit from a special interest group in order to undermine the federal government's own work under an international treaty is very troubling." 385 1 Myron Ebell 15 "On 24 August, Senator Joe Lieberman wrote to the White House expressing hope that the lawsuit was ""not the result of a collusive plan conceived by the CEI in concert with the Administration, itself." 386 1 Myron Ebell 15 It would be wrong in any circumstances to reject the well founded findings of the [Climate Action Report], but for the Administration to use an outside group to pursue such an ill-conceived goal would be doubly wrong, and could also be abuse of the courts at the expense of the taxpayers. 387 1 Myron Ebell 15 Ashcroft turned down the request for an investigation. 388 1 Myron Ebell 15 On November 4, 2003, the CEI's lawsuit was dismissed by the court, with prejudice so that it could not be re-filed. 389 1 Myron Ebell 16 Ebell has been given extensive media coverage, frequently cited or interviewed by journalists in a way that presents a false balance by giving Ebell's lay views equal weight with those of expert climatologists, and thus misrepresents the consensus of scientific opinion on climate change. 390 1 Myron Ebell 16 "A study of false equivalence in the media used as an example the Scripps Howard media company ""incredibly"" giving equal space to Ebell's comments that reports of recent warming from the World Meteorological Organisation and the National Climatic Data Center were unsurprising because of the Little Ice Age, so ""it isn’t much to worry about"", and of a ""Science"" paper by Thomas R. Karl and Kevin Trenberth that ""the Karl-Trenberth analysis is nothing new — it's just kind of a summary of what the establishment thinks is true""." 391 1 Myron Ebell 17 "In an interview on BBC Radio 4 in 2005, Ebell said that the UK's Chief Scientist David King was ""an alarmist with ridiculous views who knows nothing about climate change""." 392 1 Myron Ebell 17 "An early day motion deploring ""in the strongest possible terms"" Ebell's ""unfounded and insulting criticism"" was raised in the House of Commons of the United Kingdom, and was signed by 66 Members of Parliament." 393 1 Myron Ebell 18 "In 2006, CEI arranged a public-service television commercial about carbon dioxide with the slogan ""They call it pollution; we call it life." 394 1 Myron Ebell 18 "Also in 2006, Ebell wrote an article in ""Forbes"" titled ""Love Global Warming""." 395 1 Myron Ebell 18 "In the article, Ebell wrote, ""More people die from blizzards and cold spells than from heat waves." 396 1 Myron Ebell 18 Increased death rates usually persist for weeks after the unusually cold temperatures have passed, which suggests that the cold is killing people who would otherwise live into another season at least. 397 1 Myron Ebell 18 Mortality rates during heat waves are just the reverse. 398 1 Myron Ebell 18 The increase ends and often the rate drops below normal as soon as temperatures cool, which suggests that the higher temperatures are killing people who are likely to die soon anyway. 399 1 Myron Ebell 19 "In a 2007 discussion with Michael Shnayerson, Ebell criticized James Hansen's writings on climatic effects on animals by saying ""James Hansen was not trained as a climate scientist"", instead ""He was trained as an astronomer." 400 1 Myron Ebell 19 "He's a physicist"" and ""you know from him talking about species' going north, he knows nothing about biology." 401 1 Myron Ebell 19 "Ebell similarly argued that Robert Corell ""is not a climate scientist"" and ""not an Arctic expert""; Corell told Shnayerson that his Arctic research visits began in 1968." 402 1 Myron Ebell 19 "Ebell has no scientific training, and told Shnayerson that, when asked about scientific topics in interviews, he would say ""I'm not a climate scientist." 403 1 Myron Ebell 19 "I'm just giving you the informed layman's perspective""." 404 1 Myron Ebell 19 "His view is that ""If science is going to be discussed in the public arena, then shouldn't people other than scientists be allowed to participate?" 405 1 Myron Ebell 19 Isn't that what a representative democracy is? 406 1 Myron Ebell 20 "Through CEI, Ebell has stated his belief that global warming is a hoax, that most of the data predicting climate change is false, and that the scientific consensus was ""phony""." 407 1 Myron Ebell 21 In 2009 a Climatic Research Unit computer server at the University of East Anglia was hacked and thousands of emails and computer files were uploaded to a Russian server. 408 1 Myron Ebell 21 "Ebell said the hacked emails ""make it clear that the U.N. Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change is an organized conspiracy dedicated to tricking the world into believing that global warming is a crisis that requires a drastic response." 409 1 Myron Ebell 22 "Ebell has stated that environmentalists believe ""humans are evil, the use of human power is always bad; everything we do to nature is bad." 410 1 Myron Ebell 22 "Ebell views forced energy conservation as an infringement on American rights; he has stated: ""Energy is fundamental to mobility, to comfort." 411 1 Myron Ebell 22 When you start limiting people's access to energy, you limit their ability to live the way they want, to make choices. 412 1 Myron Ebell 23 "Ebell compared his efforts and those of his colleagues to a ""David versus Goliath struggle"" against ""corrupt environmentalism and big government"", and has said that the ""environmental movement is not an objective, well-intentioned movement that cares about saving the planet"", but one which emerged from the New Left, and which always proposes the same solutions regardless of the issue: lower material standards of living, more government control, and more power for the technocratic elite." 413 1 Myron Ebell 24 In opposing a 2005 update, Ebell said that the Endangered Species Act unfairly infringes on land owners' property rights, as well as undermining the protection of rare species by encouraging land owners to make their property inhospitable to such species in order to escape regulation. 414 1 Myron Ebell 24 "Ebell stated in an interview that the CEI is ""adamantly opposed"" to the Endangered Species Act, and that they are working on it in a limited way now because they could not attract funding." 415 1 Myron Ebell 25 In September 2016, Ebell was appointed by then Republican presidential candidate Donald Trump to lead his transition team for the United States Environmental Protection Agency (EPA). 416 1 Myron Ebell 25 As of January 27, 2017, he was described as the former head of the transition team. 417 1 Myron Ebell 26 Ebell resides in a suburb of Washington, D.C. with his wife and four children. 418 1 Sustainable forest management 1 Sustainable forest management is the management of forests according to the principles of sustainable development. 419 1 Sustainable forest management 1 Sustainable forest management has to keep the balance between three main pillars: ecological, economic and socio-cultural. 420 1 Sustainable forest management 1 Successfully achieving sustainable forest management will provide integrated benefits to all, ranging from safeguarding local livelihoods to protecting the biodiversity and ecosystems provided by forests, reducing rural poverty and mitigating some of the effects of climate change. 421 1 Sustainable forest management 2 "The ""Forest Principles"" adopted at The United Nations Conference on Environment and Development (UNCED) in Rio de Janeiro in 1992 captured the general international understanding of sustainable forest management at that time." 422 1 Sustainable forest management 2 A number of sets of criteria and indicators have since been developed to evaluate the achievement of SFM at the global, regional, country and management unit level. 423 1 Sustainable forest management 2 These were all attempts to codify and provide for independent assessment of the degree to which the broader objectives of sustainable forest management are being achieved in practice. 424 1 Sustainable forest management 2 In 2007, the United Nations General Assembly adopted the Non-Legally Binding Instrument on All Types of Forests. 425 1 Sustainable forest management 2 The instrument was the first of its kind, and reflected the strong international commitment to promote implementation of sustainable forest management through a new approach that brings all stakeholders together. 426 1 Sustainable forest management 3 A definition of SFM was developed by the Ministerial Conference on the Protection of Forests in Europe (FOREST EUROPE), and has since been adopted by the Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO). 427 1 Sustainable forest management 3 It defines sustainable forest management as: 428 1 Sustainable forest management 4 The stewardship and use of forests and forest lands in a way, and at a rate, that maintains their biodiversity, productivity, regeneration capacity, vitality and their potential to fulfill, now and in the future, relevant ecological, economic and social functions, at local, national, and global levels, and that does not cause damage to other ecosystems. 429 1 Sustainable forest management 5 In simpler terms, the concept can be described as the attainment of balance – balance between society's increasing demands for forest products and benefits, and the preservation of forest health and diversity. 430 1 Sustainable forest management 5 This balance is critical to the survival of forests, and to the prosperity of forest-dependent communities. 431 1 Sustainable forest management 6 For forest managers, sustainably managing a particular forest tract means determining, in a tangible way, how to use it today to ensure similar benefits, health and productivity in the future. 432 1 Sustainable forest management 6 Forest managers must assess and integrate a wide array of sometimes conflicting factors – commercial and non-commercial values, environmental considerations, community needs, even global impact – to produce sound forest plans. 433 1 Sustainable forest management 6 In most cases, forest managers develop their forest plans in consultation with citizens, businesses, organizations and other interested parties in and around the forest tract being managed. 434 1 Sustainable forest management 6 The tools and visualization have been recently evolving for better management practices. 435 1 Sustainable forest management 7 The Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations, at the request of Member States, developed and launched the Sustainable Forest Management Toolbox in 2014, an online collection of tools, best practices and examples of their application to support countries implementing sustainable forest management. 436 1 Sustainable forest management 8 Because forests and societies are in constant flux, the desired outcome of sustainable forest management is not a fixed one. 437 1 Sustainable forest management 8 What constitutes a sustainably managed forest will change over time as values held by the public change. 438 1 Sustainable forest management 9 Criteria and indicators are tools which can be used to conceptualise, evaluate and implement sustainable forest management. 439 1 Sustainable forest management 9 Criteria define and characterize the essential elements, as well as a set of conditions or processes, by which sustainable forest management may be assessed. 440 1 Sustainable forest management 9 Periodically measured indicators reveal the direction of change with respect to each criterion. 441 1 Sustainable forest management 10 Criteria and indicators of sustainable forest management are widely used and many countries produce national reports that assess their progress toward sustainable forest management. 442 1 Sustainable forest management 10 There are nine international and regional criteria and indicators initiatives, which collectively involve more than 150 countries. 443 1 Sustainable forest management 10 Three of the more advanced initiatives are those of the Working Group on Criteria and Indicators for the Conservation and Sustainable Management of Temperate and Boreal Forests (also called the Montréal Process), Forest Europe, and the International Tropical Timber Organization. 444 1 Sustainable forest management 10 Countries who are members of the same initiative usually agree to produce reports at the same time and using the same indicators. 445 1 Sustainable forest management 10 Within countries, at the management unit level, efforts have also been directed at developing local level criteria and indicators of sustainable forest management. 446 1 Sustainable forest management 10 The Center for International Forestry Research, the International Model Forest Network and researchers at the University of British Columbia have developed a number of tools and techniques to help forest-dependent communities develop their own local level criteria and indicators. 447 1 Sustainable forest management 10 Criteria and Indicators also form the basis of third-party forest certification programs such as the Canadian Standards Association's Sustainable Forest Management Standards and the Sustainable Forestry Initiative Standard. 448 1 Sustainable forest management 11 There appears to be growing international consensus on the key elements of sustainable forest management. 449 1 Sustainable forest management 11 Seven common thematic areas of sustainable forest management have emerged based on the criteria of the nine ongoing regional and international criteria and indicators initiatives. 450 1 Sustainable forest management 11 The seven thematic areas are: 451 1 Sustainable forest management 13 This consensus on common thematic areas (or criteria) effectively provides a common, implicit definition of sustainable forest management. 452 1 Sustainable forest management 13 The seven thematic areas were acknowledged by the international forest community at the fourth session of the United Nations Forum on Forests and the 16th session of the Committee on Forestry. 453 1 Sustainable forest management 13 These thematic areas have since been enshrined in the Non-Legally Binding Instrument on All Types of Forests as a reference framework for sustainable forest management to help achieve the purpose of the instrument. 454 1 Sustainable forest management 14 On January 5, 2012, the Montréal Process, Forest Europe, the International Tropical Timber Organization, and the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations, acknowledging the seven thematic areas, endorsed a joint statement of collaboration to improve global forest related data collection and reporting and avoiding the proliferation of monitoring requirements and associated reporting burdens. 455 1 Sustainable forest management 15 The Ecosystem Approach has been prominent on the agenda of the Convention on Biological Diversity (CBD) since 1995 . 456 1 Sustainable forest management 15 The CBD definition of the Ecosystem Approach and a set of principles for its application were developed at an expert meeting in Malawi in 1995, known as the Malawi Principles. 457 1 Sustainable forest management 15 "The definition, 12 principles and 5 points of ""operational guidance"" were adopted by the fifth Conference of Parties (COP5) in 2000." 458 1 Sustainable forest management 15 The CBD definition is as follows 459 1 Sustainable forest management 16 The ecosystem approach is a strategy for the integrated management of land, water and living resources that promotes conservation and sustainable use in an equitable way. 460 1 Sustainable forest management 16 Application of the ecosystem approach will help to reach a balance of the three objectives of the Convention. 461 1 Sustainable forest management 16 An ecosystem approach is based on the application of appropriate scientific methodologies focused on levels of biological organization, which encompasses the essential structures, processes, functions and interactions among organisms and their environment. 462 1 Sustainable forest management 16 It recognizes that humans, with their cultural diversity, are an integral component of many ecosystems. 463 1 Sustainable forest management 17 Sustainable forest management was recognized by parties to the Convention on Biological Diversity in 2004 (Decision VII/11 of COP7) to be a concrete means of applying the Ecosystem Approach to forest ecosystems. 464 1 Sustainable forest management 17 The two concepts, sustainable forest management and the ecosystem approach, aim at promoting conservation and management practices which are environmentally, socially and economically sustainable, and which generate and maintain benefits for both present and future generations. 465 1 Sustainable forest management 17 In Europe, the MCPFE and the Council for the Pan-European Biological and Landscape Diversity Strategy (PEBLDS) jointly recognized sustainable forest management to be consistent with the Ecosystem Approach in 2006. 466 1 Sustainable forest management 18 Growing environmental awareness and consumer demand for more socially responsible businesses helped third-party forest certification emerge in the 1990s as a credible tool for communicating the environmental and social performance of forest operations. 467 1 Sustainable forest management 19 There are many potential users of certification, including: forest managers, scientists, policy makers, investors, environmental advocates, business consumers of wood and paper, and individuals. 468 1 Sustainable forest management 20 With third-party forest certification, an independent organization develops standards of good forest management, and independent auditors issue certificates to forest operations that comply with those standards. 469 1 Sustainable forest management 20 Forest certification verifies that forests are well-managed – as defined by a particular standard – and chain-of-custody certification tracks wood and paper products from the certified forest through processing to the point of sale. 470 1 Sustainable forest management 21 This rise of certification led to the emergence of several different systems throughout the world. 471 1 Sustainable forest management 21 As a result, there is no single accepted forest management standard worldwide, and each system takes a somewhat different approach in defining standards for sustainable forest management. 472 1 Sustainable forest management 22 "In its 2009–2010 Forest Products Annual Market Review United Nations Economic Commission for Europe/Food and Agriculture Organization stated: ""Over the years, many of the issues that previously divided the (certification) systems have become much less distinct." 473 1 Sustainable forest management 22 The largest certification systems now generally have the same structural programmatic requirements. 474 1 Sustainable forest management 23 Third-party forest certification is an important tool for those seeking to ensure that the paper and wood products they purchase and use come from forests that are well-managed and legally harvested. 475 1 Sustainable forest management 23 Incorporating third-party certification into forest product procurement practices can be a centerpiece for comprehensive wood and paper policies that include factors such as the protection of sensitive forest values, thoughtful material selection and efficient use of products. 476 1 Sustainable forest management 24 There are more than fifty certification standards worldwide, addressing the diversity of forest types and tenures. 477 1 Sustainable forest management 24 Globally, the two largest umbrella certification programs are: 478 1 Sustainable forest management 25 The area of forest certified worldwide is growing slowly. 479 1 Sustainable forest management 25 PEFC is the world's largest forest certification system, with more than two-thirds of the total global certified area certified to its Sustainability Benchmarks. 480 1 Sustainable forest management 26 In North America, there are three certification standards endorsed by PEFC – the Sustainable Forestry Initiative, the Canadian Standards Association's Sustainable Forest Management Standard, and the American Tree Farm System. 481 1 Sustainable forest management 26 FSC has five standards in North America – one in the United States and four in Canada. 482 1 Sustainable forest management 27 While certification is intended as a tool to enhance forest management practices throughout the world, to date most certified forestry operations are located in Europe and North America. 483 1 Sustainable forest management 27 A significant barrier for many forest managers in developing countries is that they lack the capacity to undergo a certification audit and maintain operations to a certification standard. 484 1 Sustainable forest management 28 Although a majority of forests continue to be owned formally by government, the effectiveness of forest governance is increasingly independent of formal ownership. 485 1 Sustainable forest management 28 Since neo-liberal ideology in the 1980s and the emanation of the climate change challenges, evidence that the state is failing to effectively manage environmental resources has emerged. 486 1 Sustainable forest management 28 Under neo-liberal regimes in the developing countries, the role of the state has diminished and the market forces have increasingly taken over the dominant socio-economic role. 487 1 Sustainable forest management 28 Though the critiques of neo-liberal policies have maintained that market forces are not only inappropriate for sustaining the environment, but are in fact a major cause of environmental destruction. 488 1 Sustainable forest management 28 Hardin's tragedy of the commons (1968) has shown that the people cannot be left to do as they wish with land or environmental resources. 489 1 Sustainable forest management 28 Thus, decentralization of management offers an alternative solution to forest governance. 490 1 Sustainable forest management 29 The shifting of natural resource management responsibilities from central to state and local governments, where this is occurring, is usually a part of broader decentralization process. 491 1 Sustainable forest management 29 According to Rondinelli and Cheema (1983), there are four distinct decentralization options: these are: (i) Privatization – the transfer of authority from the central government to non-governmental sectors otherwise known as market-based service provision, (ii) Delegation – centrally nominated local authority, (iii) Devolution – transfer of power to locally acceptable authority and (iv) Deconcentration – the redistribution of authority from the central government to field delegations of the central government. 492 1 Sustainable forest management 29 The major key to effective decentralization is increased broad-based participation in local-public decision making. 493 1 Sustainable forest management 29 In 2000, the World Bank report reveals that local government knows the needs and desires of their constituents better than the national government, while at the same time, it is easier to hold local leaders accountable. 494 1 Sustainable forest management 29 From the study of West African tropical forest, it is argued that the downwardly accountable and/or representative authorities with meaningful discretional powers are the basic institutional element of decentralization that should lead to efficiency, development and equity. 495 1 Sustainable forest management 29 "This collaborates with the World Bank report in 2000 which says that decentralization should improve resource allocation, efficiency, accountability and equity ""by linking the cost and benefit of local services more closely""." 496 1 Sustainable forest management 30 Many reasons point to the advocacy of decentralization of forest. 497 1 Sustainable forest management 30 (i) Integrated rural development projects often fail because they are top-down projects that did not take local people's needs and desires into account. 498 1 Sustainable forest management 30 (ii) National government sometimes have legal authority over vast forest areas that they cannot control, thus, many protected area projects result in increased biodiversity loss and greater social conflict. 499 1 Sustainable forest management 30 "Within the sphere of forest management, as state earlier, the most effective option of decentralization is ""devolution""-the transfer of power to locally accountable authority." 500 1 Sustainable forest management 30 However, apprehension about local governments is not unfounded. 501 1 Sustainable forest management 30 They are often short of resources, may be staffed by people with low education and are sometimes captured by local elites who promote clientelist relation rather than democratic participation. 502 1 Sustainable forest management 30 Enters and Anderson (1999) point that the result of community-based projects intended to reverse the problems of past central approaches to conservation and development have also been discouraging. 503 1 Sustainable forest management 31 Broadly speaking, the goal of forest conservation has historically not been met when, in contrast with land use changes; driven by demand for food, fuel and profit. 504 1 Sustainable forest management 31 It is necessary to recognize and advocate for better forest governance more strongly given the importance of forest in meeting basic human needs in the future and maintaining ecosystem and biodiversity as well as addressing climate change mitigation and adaptation goal. 505 1 Sustainable forest management 31 "Such advocacy must be coupled with financial incentives for government of developing countries and greater governance role for local government, civil society, private sector and NGOs on behalf of the ""communities""." 506 1 Sustainable forest management 32 The development of National Forest Funds is one way to address the issue of financing sustainable forest management. 507 1 Sustainable forest management 32 National forest funds (NFFs) are dedicated financing mechanisms managed by public institutions designed to support the conservation and sustainable use of forest resources. 508 1 Sustainable forest management 32 As of 2014, there are 70 NFFs operating globally. 509 1 Sustainable forest management 33 Appropriate use and long-term conservation of forest genetic resources (FGR) is a part of sustainable forest management. 510 1 Sustainable forest management 33 In particular when it comes to the adaptation of forests and forest management to climate change. 511 1 Sustainable forest management 33 Genetic diversity ensures that forest trees can survive, adapt and evolve under changing environmental conditions. 512 1 Sustainable forest management 33 Genetic diversity in forests also contributes to tree vitality and to the resilience towards pests and diseases. 513 1 Sustainable forest management 33 Furthermore, FGR has a crucial role in maintaining forest biological diversity at both species and ecosystem levels. 514 1 Sustainable forest management 34 Selecting carefully the forest reproductive material with emphasis on getting a high genetic diversity rather than aiming at producing a uniform stand of trees, is essential for sustainable use of FGR. 515 1 Sustainable forest management 34 Considering the provenance is crucial as well. 516 1 Sustainable forest management 34 For example in relation to climate change, local material may not have the genetic diversity or phenotypic plasticity to guarantee good performance under changed conditions. 517 1 Sustainable forest management 34 A different population from further away, which may have experienced selection under conditions more like those forecast for the site to be reforested, might represent a more suitable seed source. 518 1 Sustainable forest management 35 In 2019 after severe wildfires and public pressure the Russian government decided to take a number of measures for more effective forest management, what is considered as a big victory for the Environmental movement 519 1 Sustainable forest management 36 In August 2019, a court in Indonesia stopped the construction of a dam that could heavily heart forests and villagers in the area 520 1 Sustainable forest management 41 Reports are in English unless otherwise noted 521 1 World Nuclear Association 1 The World Nuclear Association (WNA) is the international organization that promotes nuclear power and supports the companies that comprise the global nuclear industry. 522 1 World Nuclear Association 1 Its members come from all parts of the nuclear fuel cycle, including uranium mining, uranium conversion, uranium enrichment, nuclear fuel fabrication, plant manufacture, transport, and the disposition of used nuclear fuel as well as electricity generation itself. 523 1 World Nuclear Association 2 Together, WNA members are responsible for 70% of the world's nuclear power as well as the vast majority of world uranium, conversion and enrichment production. 524 1 World Nuclear Association 3 The WNA says it aims to fulfill a dual role for its members: Facilitating their interaction on technical, commercial and policy matters and promoting wider public understanding of nuclear technology. 525 1 World Nuclear Association 3 It has a secretariat of around 35 staff. 526 1 World Nuclear Association 4 The WNA was founded in 2001 on the basis of the Uranium Institute, itself founded in 1975. 527 1 World Nuclear Association 5 The WNA continues to expand its membership, particularly in non-OECD countries where nuclear power is produced or where this option is under active consideration. 528 1 World Nuclear Association 5 WNA members are located in 35 countries representing 80% of the world's population. 529 1 World Nuclear Association 6 The annual subscription fee for an institutional member is based on its size and scale of activity. 530 1 World Nuclear Association 6 Upon receiving an inquiry or application, WNA's London-based secretariat determines the fee according to standard criteria and informs the candidate organisation accordingly. 531 1 World Nuclear Association 6 The fee structure provides, in many cases, for significant discounts for organisations located in countries outside the OECD. 532 1 World Nuclear Association 7 A low-fee non-commercial membership is available for organisations with a solely academic, research, policy or regulatory function. 533 1 World Nuclear Association 8 A list of current members is published on the WNA website. 534 1 World Nuclear Association 9 The WNA has established a Charter of Ethics to serve as a common credo amongst its member organizations. 535 1 World Nuclear Association 9 This affirmation of values and principles is intended to summarize the responsibilities of the nuclear industry and the surrounding legal and institutional framework that has been constructed through international cooperation to fulfill U.S. President Dwight D. Eisenhower's vision of 'Atoms for Peace'. 536 1 World Nuclear Association 10 WNA members appoint a Director General and elect a 20-member board of management. 537 1 World Nuclear Association 10 The current Director General is Agneta Rising. 538 1 World Nuclear Association 10 The Chairman of the board is Kirill Komarov First Deputy Director General at Rosatom. 539 1 World Nuclear Association 10 Vice chairman is Philippe Knoche CEO at Orano. 540 1 World Nuclear Association 10 A board of management fulfils statutory duties pertaining to the organization's governance and sets WNA policies and strategic objectives, subject to approval by the full membership. 541 1 World Nuclear Association 11 An essential role of the World Nuclear Association is to facilitate commercially valuable interaction among its members. 542 1 World Nuclear Association 12 Ongoing WNA working groups, consisting of members and supported by the secretariat, share information and develop analysis on a range of technical, trade and environmental matters. 543 1 World Nuclear Association 12 These subjects include: 544 1 World Nuclear Association 13 ...When meeting to discuss industry issues, WNA members are cautioned to avoid any topic that could potentially create even the impression of an attempt to set prices or engage in other anti-competitive behaviour. 545 1 World Nuclear Association 13 Accordingly, topics not discussed in WNA meetings include terms of specific contracts; current or projected prices for products or services; allocation of markets; refusals to deal with particular suppliers or customers; or any similar matters that might impair competition within any segment of the nuclear industry. 546 1 World Nuclear Association 14 The WNA's annual symposium in London provides a forum for members, spotlights the role of the WNA's worldwide affiliates and serves as a platform for speakers from throughout the world nuclear industry. 547 1 World Nuclear Association 14 WNA events are also held regularly in China and India. 548 1 World Nuclear Association 14 The WNA has previously presented an award for 'Distinguished Contribution to the Peaceful Worldwide Use of Nuclear Energy'. 549 1 World Nuclear Association 15 The WNA also cooperates with the Nuclear Energy Institute on annual World Nuclear Fuel Cycle meetings for industry representatives concerned with nuclear fuel supply and in particular the uranium market. 550 1 World Nuclear Association 16 The WNA represents the interests of the international nuclear industry at key international forums such as: 551 1 World Nuclear Association 17 In contrast to earlier less structured forms of industry representation the WNA claims to provide a unified voice from a single body; encompassing all manner of industry expertise and perspectives. 552 1 World Nuclear Association 17 It is clear and unreserved in its purpose of promoting the maximum feasible use of safe nuclear power. 553 1 World Nuclear Association 18 The WNA public website is intended to provide the best available non-technical source of information on the global nuclear industry. 554 1 World Nuclear Association 18 The site presents reference documents, and a wide range of educational and explanatory papers which are constantly updated. 555 1 World Nuclear Association 18 Australian nuclear power advocate Ian Hore-Lacy served as the organization’s Director of Public Information for 12 years, after working for six years at the now defunct Melbourne-based Uranium Information Centre. 556 1 World Nuclear Association 18 In the late 2000s, the information-disseminating role of the UIC was assumed by the WNA and WNN (World Nuclear News). 557 1 World Nuclear Association 19 The WNA supports World Nuclear News (WNN), an online news service intended to bring accurate and accessible information on developments in nuclear power to WNA's industry readers and the general public. 558 1 World Nuclear Association 19 Its output is free of charge and may be widely reproduced in accordance with WNN's copyright policy. 559 1 World Nuclear Association 20 The WNA reactor database contains information on past, present and future nuclear power reactors across the world. 560 1 World Nuclear Association 21 The WNA is engaged in a number of other initiatives to promote the peaceful development of nuclear power. 561 1 World Nuclear Association 21 These include the World Nuclear University (WNU), which is a global partnership between the WNA, the International Atomic Energy Agency, The OECD Nuclear Energy Agency and the World Association of Nuclear Operators committed to enhancing international education and leadership in the peaceful applications of nuclear science and technology. 562 1 World Nuclear Association 21 It runs a series of programmes designed to complement existing institutions of nuclear learning in their curriculum. 563 1 World Nuclear Association 21 The premier event on the WNU calendar is the Summer Institute, which runs each year in July and brings together speakers from industry and government to present on all aspects of nuclear power. 564 1 World Nuclear Association 21 It also runs five one-week courses per year with partner universities around the world intended to enhance knowledge of today’s nuclear industry among students. 565 1 World Nuclear Association 22 Women in Nuclear is a global not for profit organization with over 2000 members from some 60 countries. 566 1 World Nuclear Association 22 The organization was established in 1993 and is governed by an elected board and executive. 567 1 World Nuclear Association 22 The organization is sponsored under the auspices of the WNA and its objectives are identified as including the dissemination of factual information about nuclear and radiation technology, professional exchange among its members and promotion of career opportunities in the nuclear industry. 568 1 World Nuclear Association 22 Although open to both women and men, members are primarily women working in nuclear technology related industries including academia, uranium mining, nuclear power generation, regulatory agencies, nuclear medicine, related organizations such as the IAEA and government officials. 569 1 Flora of Australia (series) 1 The Flora of Australia is a 59 volume series describing the vascular plants, bryophytes and lichens present in Australia and its external territories. 570 1 Flora of Australia (series) 1 The series is published by the Australian Biological Resources Study who estimate that the series when complete will describe over 20 000 plant species. 571 1 Flora of Australia (series) 2 Volume 1 of the series was published in 1981, a second extended edition was released in 1999. 572 1 Flora of Australia (series) 2 The series uses the Cronquist system of taxonomy. 573 1 Flora of Australia (series) 2 "The ABRS also published the ""Fungi of Australia"", the ""Algae of Australia"" and the ""Flora of Australia Supplementary Series""." 574 1 Flora of Australia (series) 2 "A new online ""Flora of Australia"" was launched by ABRS in 2017, and no more printed volumes will be published." 575 1 Flora of Australia (series) 3 A few censuses of the Australian flora have been carried out, they include 576 1 Michael Oppenheimer 1 Michael Oppenheimer (born February 28, 1946) is the Albert G. Milbank Professor of Geosciences and International Affairs in the Woodrow Wilson School of Public and International Affairs and the Department of Geosciences at Princeton University. 577 1 Michael Oppenheimer 1 He is the Director of the Program in Science, Technology and Environmental Policy (STEP) at the Woodrow Wilson School and Faculty Associate of the Atmospheric and Ocean Sciences Program, Princeton Environmental Institute, and the Princeton Institute for International and Regional Studies. 578 1 Michael Oppenheimer 2 Oppenheimer has taken a leading role in various environmental and science policy related activities, with regard to acid rain, and contributed to the 1990 amendments to the Clean Air Act. 579 1 Michael Oppenheimer 2 With regard to climate change, he was a major author of the IPCC Fourth Assessment Report and a lead author of the Fifth Assessment Report. 580 1 Michael Oppenheimer 3 Oppenheimer is also a prominent public figure and has discussed the various aspects of global warming in the media. 581 1 Michael Oppenheimer 3 "He has been a guest on many television and radio programs and talk shows, including ""This Week"", ""Nightline"", ""Alcove"", ""The News Hour"", ""The Oprah Winfrey Show"", ""Charlie Rose"", ""ABC News"", and ""The Colbert Report""." 582 1 Michael Oppenheimer 3 Oppenheimer is the author of over 140 articles published in professional journals. 583 1 Michael Oppenheimer 4 "He is the author of ""Dead Heat: The Race Against The Greenhouse Effect"", written together with environmental activist Robert H. Boyle and published in 1990." 584 1 Michael Oppenheimer 4 Oppenheimer is co-founder of the Climate Action Network. 585 1 Michael Oppenheimer 5 Oppenheimer (born February 28, 1946 in NYC) joined the Princeton faculty after more than two decades with The Environmental Defense Fund (EDF), a non-governmental, environmental organization, where he served as chief scientist and manager of the Climate and Air Program. 586 1 Michael Oppenheimer 5 Prior to his position at The Environmental Defense Fund, Dr. Oppenheimer served as Atomic and Molecular Astrophysicist at the Harvard–Smithsonian Center for Astrophysics and Lecturer on Astronomy at Harvard University. 587 1 Michael Oppenheimer 5 He received an S.B. 588 1 Michael Oppenheimer 5 in chemistry from M.I.T., a Ph.D. in chemical physics from the University of Chicago, and pursued post-doctoral research at the Harvard–Smithsonian Center. 589 1 Michael Oppenheimer 5 He continues to serve as a science advisor to EDF. 590 1 Michael Oppenheimer 5 Oppenheimer has been a member of several panels of the National Academy of Sciences and is now a member of the National Academies' Board on Energy and Environmental Systems. 591 1 Michael Oppenheimer 5 He is also a winner of the 2010 Heinz Award with special focus on global change and a Fellow of the American Association for the Advancement of Science. 592 1 Michael Oppenheimer 6 His interests include science and policy of the atmosphere, particularly climate change and its impacts. 593 1 Michael Oppenheimer 6 "Much of his research aims to understand the potential for ""dangerous"" outcomes of increasing levels of greenhouse gases by exploring the effects of global warming on ecosystems such as coral reefs, on the ice sheets and sea level, and on patterns of human migration." 594 1 Michael Oppenheimer 6 He has assessed linkages among climate change, crop yields and Mexico–US cross-border migration. 595 1 Michael Oppenheimer 6 Oppenheimer studies the process of scientific learning and scientific assessments and their role in influencing public policies to respond to global change. 596 1 Michael Oppenheimer 7 Oppenheimer is a long-time participant in the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) which won the Nobel Peace Prize in 2007, serving recently as a lead author of the IPCC's Fourth Assessment Report and then as a coordinating lead author of the Fifth Assessment Report as well as a Special Report on climate extremes and disasters. 597 1 Michael Oppenheimer 7 In the late 1980s, Dr. Oppenheimer and a handful of other scientists organized two workshops under the auspices of the United Nations that helped precipitate the negotiations that resulted in the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (signed at the 1992 Earth Summit) and the Kyoto Protocol. 598 1 Michael Oppenheimer 7 During that period, he co-founded the Climate Action Network. 599 1 Michael Oppenheimer 7 His research and advocacy work on acid rain also contributed to the passage of the 1990 amendments to the Clean Air Act. 600 1 Michael Oppenheimer 8 In 2007, he wrote about limitations of the IPCC consensus approach in Science Magazine. 601 1 Michael Oppenheimer 8 "The current centralized assessment role of the IPCC allows for ""communication in a monolithic message"" but risks ""ossification and eventual irrelevance"" of the IPCC as an institution." 602 1 Michael Oppenheimer 8 "According to him, the ""problem of creating, defending, and communicating consensus, as well as departures from the consensus"" had been discussed but not addressed until after the AR4." 603 1 Michael Oppenheimer 8 Oppenheimer notes important recent major changes within the IPCC, including a stronger focus on uncertainty since the InterAcademy Panel IAC 2010 IPCC review and a focus upon risk management approaches based on fundamental conclusions in the AR4 Synthesis Report. 604 1 Michael Oppenheimer 8 With regard to the IPCC double role as trying to communicate its results both to governments and to the general public, he sees the organization as not being entirely successful at either. 605 1 Michael Oppenheimer 8 The IPCC needs, according to Oppenheimer, to decide whether it intends to communicate with the general public at all. 606 1 Michael Oppenheimer 9 In 2011, together with Gary Yohe, he published an essay, with a scope on the uncertainties in the IPCC assessments regarding e.g. 607 1 Michael Oppenheimer 9 climate sensitivity and a potential collapse of the West Antarctic Ice Sheet, and about the similarly important evolution of socio-political-economic systems. 608 1 Michael Oppenheimer 10 Together with Jessica O'Reilly and Naomi Oreskes, Oppenheimer discussed the case of the 609 1 Michael Oppenheimer 10 West Antarctic Ice Sheet assessment in IPCC reports in a Social Studies of Science paper in 2012. 610 1 Michael Oppenheimer 10 The possible disastrous outcome of a disintegration of the WAIS for global sea levels was assessed in the IPCC Third Assessment Report but was barely addressed in the IPCC Fourth Assessment Report. 611 1 Michael Oppenheimer 10 "IPCC authors were less confident about predictions of WAIS disintegration not only due to new science results published since the Third Assessment, but also due to reasons of internal ""culture"", such as changes of IPCC chairpersons, authors' teams, and chapter organization, which makes it too difficult to project the range of possible futures for the WAIS as desired by governments." 612 1 Michael Oppenheimer 12 Overview of publications at Google Scholar 613 1 The Great Warming 1 The Great Warming is a 2006 documentary film directed by Michael Taylor. 614 1 The Great Warming 1 The film was hosted by Alanis Morissette and Keanu Reeves and even before its November 3, 2006 première helped establish an alliance between Democrats and Evangelicals trying to shake the administration out of its inertia on Climate change mitigation. 615 1 The Great Warming 1 It is also the anchor for a broad, pro-active coalition ranging from Friends of the Earth to Union of Concerned Scientists to Churches of Christ. 616 1 The Great Warming 2 Theatre giant Regal Cinemas released the film in its top 50 markets on the weekend of November 4 to November 5, 2006, which makes the launch three times larger than for any other film of its kind, and highlights the growing currency of the global warming issues in the mainstream. 617 1 The Great Warming 2 A special program was developed for faith communities, and the film was distributed to over 500 churches, synagogues and mosques across the US. 618 1 The Great Warming 3 "Featuring elements of the 2005 Public Broadcasting Service special ""Global Warming: the Signs and the Science, The Great Warming"" (produced by the same team), it talks to key researchers and reports on social justice and day-to-day impacts as well as emission statistics." 619 1 The Great Warming 3 It's also populated with everyday people from all over the United States and the planet who are feeling the brunt of global warming, and/or finding innovative ways to tackle it. 620 1 The Great Warming 4 While making the movie, producer Karen Coshof was determined not to lose sight of her most important advocate, the person on the street, to make the issue of global warming resonate in every household around the globe. 621 1 The Great Warming 4 "Every person should ""feel empowered to act." 622 1 The Great Warming 5 In media interviews, Coshof explained that the film attracted an unprecedented coalition of leaders in science, religion, business, environmental activism and education. 623 1 The Great Warming 5 They have built bridges over historic gaps to support the message of this film to believe in the individual and collective moral responsibility to reverse the growing threats to the environment, and to the health and quality of life. 624 1 The Great Warming 6 The effort goes beyond the documentary: with a release timed just before the United States House elections, 2006, the website featured a Questions for Candidates link where voters could send a questionnaire on energy, environment, and taxation to their federal and state candidates. 625 1 The Great Warming 6 The campaign also includes a Call to Action signed by leaders from every arena of public life, and which can be signed online by anyone who chooses. 626 1 The Great Warming 6 Advance DVD screenings at schools, churches, and town halls across the country have already mobilized thousands of people to change personal habits and demand action, and coalition members are working to track the effort. 627 1 Wind power in Spain 1 By year end 2015 Spain was the world's fifth biggest producer of wind power with 23,031 MW installed capacity (including 11 MW of wind-hydro capacity), providing 48,118 GWh of power and 19% of the country's total electricity production in that year. 628 1 Wind power in Spain 1 In 2014, a record breaking year for renewable electricity production, wind power accounted for 20.2% of total electricity generation in Spain making it the second most important electricity source after nuclear power (22%) and ahead of coal power (16.5%). 629 1 Wind power in Spain 1 In earlier periods wind energy covered 16% of the demand in 2010, 13.8% in 2009 and 11.5% in 2008. 630 1 Wind power in Spain 2 Following the fallout from the financial crisis in 2008 and the dire straits of the Spanish economy in the subsequent period new installations of new wind turbines all but stagnated between 2012 and 2015 remaining at close to 23,000 MW installed capacity for the entire period. 631 1 Wind power in Spain 2 Whilst Spain put expansion on ice the other world leading countries continued to expand or accelerated new wind turbine installations and by 2015 India had moved ahead of Spain in total installations. 632 1 Wind power in Spain 2 As of end 2015 ranked 5th in the world by wind power installed capacity. 633 1 Wind power in Spain 3 On windy days, wind power generation has surpassed all other electricity sources in Spain; On 21 November 2015 at 4:50 am, 70.4% of the electricity consumed on the Spanish Peninsula was covered with wind power energy. 634 1 Wind power in Spain 3 On 6 February 2013, wind power achieved an earlier record in electricity production, reaching an instantaneous peak of 17,056 MW and an hourly production of 16,918 MWh. 635 1 Wind power in Spain 3 In November 2011 a capacity peak of 59% of power demand being generated by wind power was reached. 636 1 Wind power in Spain 3 Power peaks of 14.960 GW were reached in November 2010, and in November 2009, a wind storm caused wind farms to produce a peak of 53% of total electricity demand (11.546 GW). 637 1 Wind power in Spain 4 In 2009, the largest producer of wind power in Spain was Iberdrola, with 25.5% of capacity, followed by Acciona with 20.9% and NEO Energia (EDP Renewables) with 8.3%. 638 1 Wind power in Spain 5 A 2006 article stated that the intended wind energy capacity to be installed in the autonomous regions by 2010-2011 at 20,000 MW. 639 1 Wind power in Spain 6 The US rating agency Standard & Poors, in a 2006 investigation of standard of living in Europe, ranked Navarre, whose primary source of renewable energy was wind power, uppermost among the 17 autonomous regions of Spain. 640 1 Wind power in Spain 6 At that time Navarre sustained approximately 70 percent of its electricity needs from renewable energy sources, wind farms being used most extensively, and had a 900-megawatt capacity of installed wind power. 641 1 Wind power in Spain 7 Navarre lacks thermal, nuclear, coal, oil, gas fields, or hefty hydro-electric power stations, but does possess considerable wind renewable resources, which the Government of Navarre pursued to drop its external energy dependence. 642 1 Wind power in Spain 7 Navarre was entirely reliant on imported energy until wind-power development and utilization began progress in 1996. 643 1 Wind power in Spain 8 In 2007 Galicia lead Spain in wind power development amongst the autonomous regions for the third consecutive year with an increase in wind power of 264 MW, succeeding Castilla La Mancha (which exceeded its development goal of 1,000MW), Castile and León, Aaragon and Navarre, and the remaining autonomous regions. 644 1 Wind power in Spain 9 Largely concerned with advancing energy efficiency use in Spain, the Institute for Energy Saving and Diversification (IDAE) also seeks to expand renewable energy sources and energies. 645 1 Wind power in Spain 10 Research concerning the production of hydrogen from electrolysis of water by a wind farm began in 2004 at a newly installed laboratory in the Universidad Pública de Navarra under an agreement between Energía Hidroeléctrica de Navarra, Stuart Energy Systems of Canada, and Statkraft of Norway. 646 1 Wind power in Spain 10 The lab replicated the power generation environment of a wind farm and examined the effects of an electrolyzer. 647 1 Wind power in Spain 11 Concentrated research is occurring concerning wind measurement in the Albacete region at Higueruela. 648 1 Wind power in Spain 12 A 2005 report showed the Spanish wind energy sector hosting the involvement of over 500 companies, with approximately 150 wind turbine production plants and their machinery across the Spanish regions. 649 1 Wind power in Spain 12 "The assets of the Spanish industry were noticed and acted upon by financial analysts, as United States Ernst and Young in 2005 ranked the wind market in Spain among the uppermost in its index of ""long-term country attractiveness""." 650 1 Wind power in Spain 12 "Including those indirectly employed in supplying components and services, the total number of jobs supported by Spain’s wind industry had reached more than 30 000, and was estimated to double to 60 000 by 2010"" (2005)." 651 1 Wind power in Spain 13 Gamesa, based in the Basque Country is a large global wind turbine manufacturer with 13% share by installed power in 2005. 652 1 Wind power in Spain 13 The company values the distinctive geographical setting of Spain as a benefit to Spanish companies competing in the global arena. 653 1 Wind power in Spain 13 Gamesa Eólica currently operates plants in Spain, The US and China. 654 1 Wind power in Spain 13 It has projects in many other parts of the world including Egypt, Germany, Ireland, Italy, Japan, Korea, and Portugal. 655 1 Wind power in Spain 13 Gamesa opened a manufacturing plant for wind turbine generator blades in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania in 2005, creating 500 part-time building and operations jobs and 236 permanent manufacturing jobs; the building, operation, and upkeep of Gamesa’s wind farms, in conjunction with its two Philadelphia offices and production plant, formed about 1,000 jobs in the state over a five-year period. 656 1 Wind power in Spain 13 The company seeks expansion into Greece, Taiwan, and the United Kingdom. 657 1 Wind power in Spain 14 Ecotècnia, established 1981, and by 2005 had 2.1% world market share by installed capacity, with wind turbines in production of up to 1.6MW. 658 1 Wind power in Spain 14 In 2009 the company was acquired by Alstom for €350million. 659 1 Wind power in Spain 14 The company continued to develop wind turbines; a 3MW machine was installed in a commercial windfarm in 2009. 660 1 Wind power in Spain 14 In 2010 the company was renamed Alstom Wind. 661 1 Wind power in Spain 14 In 2011/2 the company developed a prototype 6MW permanent magnet gearless generator for offshore applications, in association with LM Wind Power and Converteam. 662 1 Wind power in Spain 15 Acciona Energy (Acciona Energía), the biggest global wind-park developer at the time, operated in Australia, Canada, France, Germany, Morocco, Spain, and the United States. 663 1 Wind power in Spain 15 The company credited its success to its initial stages in Navarre during 1994. 664 1 Wind power in Spain 15 Its line of work involved wind-farm operation, turbine manufacture, and the development of wind-power plants, and the company intended to expand into China, Ireland, and the United Kingdom. 665 1 Wind power in Spain 16 Iberdrola held functioning facilities in Brazil, France, Greece, Italy, Mexico, Portugal, Spain, the United States and the United Kingdom, and continued to develop wind farms in Europe and Latin America. 666 1 Wind power in Spain 17 As of 2008, Iberdrola plans to develop six offshore wind farm projects with a combined generation capacity of 3000 MW at locations off the coasts of the Spanish Atlantic provinces of Cadiz, Huelva and the Mediterranean province of Castellon. 667 1 Wind power in Spain 18 MTorres initiated their activities in the Wing Energy field in 1998, with the launch of their newly developed Wind Turbine TWT-1.5/70, a 1500 KW variable-speed direct-drive multipole Wind Turbine with a full-power converter and a 70 meters rotor diameter. 668 1 Wind power in Spain 19 The national Spanish wind energy industry began exporting its wind generators by forming contracts for the erection of wind farms in China, India, and Mexico, as well as Cuba, where work began in 1998 (2007). 669 1 Wind power in Spain 19 They also had contracts at a highly developed stage with Portugal, Turkey, Tunisia, Egypt, Brazil, and Argentina. 670 1 Wind power in Spain 20 The wind energy capacity for major companies in Spain was the following as of 2007: Gamesa Eólica, 3281 MW; Made, 803 MW; Neg Micon, 715 MW; Ecotècnia, 446 MW; G. Electric, 343 MW; Izar-Bonus, 317 MW; Desa & AWP, 121 MW; Enercon, 58 MW; Lagerwey, 38 MW; and Others, 113 MW (2007). 671 1 Wind power in Spain 21 Three factors will control the further progress of wind power development in Spain: the capability of the wind farms network to hold all the electricity harnessed by wind power, predominantly in off-peak times, the cost of energy, and the environmental effect that the abundance of wind farm development in Spain could turn out. 672 1 Wind power in Spain 21 The Spanish wind power industry will be confronted with the following issues in the immediate future: 673 1 Wind power in Spain 23 It is also noteworthy that the supportive Spanish policies for wind power development have resulted in severe competition for construction sites among major companies. 674 1 Wind power in Spain 23 Political leaders in the autonomous communities have been frazzled by the numerous applications for wind farm construction. 675 1 Wind power in Spain 23 Local possession of wind power is not present in Spain, but does not appear to take away from further development of wind power in Spain since a much smaller and weaker quantity of local anti-wind farm grid population inhabits the country. 676 1 Wind power in Spain 24 However, a further obstacle concerning wind power development needs to be tackled before Spain can achieve these ambitious objectives: construction of a central control center for all the Spanish wind farms, analogous to the control center used for traditional power plants. 677 1 Wind power in Spain 25 With some exceptions, there has been little opposition to the installation of inland wind parks. 678 1 Wind power in Spain 25 However, the projects to build offshore parks have been more controversial. 679 1 Wind power in Spain 25 According to Cohn et al., 680 1 Wind power in Spain 26 The proposal of building the biggest offshore wind power production facility in the world in southwestern Spain on the spot of the 1805 Battle of Trafalgar. 681 1 Wind power in Spain 26 has been met with strong oppostition from the towns in the coast of Cádiz, who fear for tourism and fisheries in the area. 682 1 Wind power in Spain 26 There have also been complaints by the British, who claim that the area is a war grave and that any development of the area could destroy archaeological evidence of the historic battle. 683 1 Henrik Svensmark 1 Henrik Svensmark (born 1958) is a physicist and professor in the Division of Solar System Physics at the Danish National Space Institute (DTU Space) in Copenhagen. 684 1 Henrik Svensmark 1 He is known for his theory on the effects of cosmic rays on cloud formation as an indirect cause of global warming. 685 1 Henrik Svensmark 2 Henrik Svensmark obtained a Master of Science in Engineering (Cand. 686 1 Henrik Svensmark 2 Polyt) in 1985 and a Ph.D. in 1987 from the Physics Laboratory I at the Technical University of Denmark. 687 1 Henrik Svensmark 3 Henrik Svensmark is director of the Center for Sun-Climate Research at the Danish Space Research Institute (DSRI), a part of the Danish National Space Center. 688 1 Henrik Svensmark 3 He previously headed the sun-climate group at DSRI. 689 1 Henrik Svensmark 3 He held postdoctoral positions in physics at three other organizations: University of California, Berkeley, Nordic Institute for Theoretical Physics, and the Niels Bohr Institute. 690 1 Henrik Svensmark 4 In 1997, Svensmark and Eigil Friis-Christensen popularised a theory that linked galactic cosmic rays and global climate change mediated primarily by variations in the intensity of the solar wind, which they have termed cosmoclimatology. 691 1 Henrik Svensmark 4 This theory had earlier been reviewed by Dickinson. 692 1 Henrik Svensmark 4 "One of the small-scale processes related to this link was studied in a laboratory experiment performed at the Danish National Space Center (paper published in the ""Proceedings of the Royal Society A"", February 8, 2007)." 693 1 Henrik Svensmark 5 Svensmark's conclusions from his research downplay the significance of the effects of man-made increases in atmospheric CO on recent and historical global warming, with him arguing that while the climate change role of greenhouse gases is considerable, solar variations play a larger role. 694 1 Henrik Svensmark 6 Svensmark detailed his theory of cosmoclimatology in a paper published in 2007. 695 1 Henrik Svensmark 6 "The Center for Sun-Climate Research at the Danish National Space Institute ""investigates the connection between solar activity and climatic changes on Earth""." 696 1 Henrik Svensmark 6 Its homepage lists several publications earlier works related to cosmoclimatology. 697 1 Henrik Svensmark 7 "Svensmark and Nigel Calder published a book """" (2007) describing the Cosmoclimatology theory that cosmic rays ""have more effect on the climate than manmade CO"":" 698 1 Henrik Svensmark 7 "A documentary film on Svensmark's theory, ""The Cloud Mystery"", was produced by Lars Oxfeldt Mortensen and premiered in January 2008 on Danish TV 2." 699 1 Henrik Svensmark 8 In April 2012, Svensmark published an expansion of his theory in the Monthly Notices of the Royal Astronomical Society 700 1 Henrik Svensmark 9 In the new work he claims that the diversity of life on Earth over the last 500 million years might be explained by tectonics affecting the sea-level together with variations in the local supernova rate, and virtually nothing else. 701 1 Henrik Svensmark 9 This suggests that the progress of evolution is affected by climate variation depending on the Galactic Cosmic Ray flux. 702 1 Henrik Svensmark 10 "The director of DTU Space, Prof. Eigil Friis-Christensen, commented: ""When this enquiry into effects of cosmic rays from supernova remnants began 16 years ago, we never imagined that it would lead us so deep into time, or into so many aspects of the Earth's history." 703 1 Henrik Svensmark 10 The connection to evolution is a culmination of this work. 704 1 Henrik Svensmark 11 Preliminary experimental verification has been conducted in the SKY Experiment at the Danish National Space Science Center. 705 1 Henrik Svensmark 11 CERN, the European Organization for Nuclear Research in Geneva, is preparing comprehensive verification in the CLOUD Project. 706 1 Henrik Svensmark 12 Svensmark conducted proof of concept experiments in the SKY Experiment at the Danish National Space Institute. 707 1 Henrik Svensmark 12 To investigate the role of cosmic rays in cloud formation low in the Earth's atmosphere, the SKY experiment used natural muons (heavy electrons) that can penetrate even to the basement of the National Space Institute in Copenhagen. 708 1 Henrik Svensmark 12 The hypothesis, verified by the experiment, is that electrons released in the air by the passing muons promote the formation of molecular clusters that are building blocks for cloud condensation nuclei. 709 1 Henrik Svensmark 12 Critics of the hypothesis claimed that particle clusters produced measured just a few nanometres across, whereas aerosols typically need to have a diameter of at least 50 nm in order to serve as so-called cloud condensation nuclei. 710 1 Henrik Svensmark 12 Further experiments by Svensmark and collaborators published in 2013 that showed that aerosols with diameter larger than 50 nm are produced by ultraviolet light (from trace amounts of ozone, sulfur dioxide, and water vapor), large enough to serve as cloud condensation nuclei. 711 1 Henrik Svensmark 13 Scientists are preparing detailed atmospheric physics experiments to test Svensmark's thesis, building on the Danish findings. 712 1 Henrik Svensmark 13 CERN started a multi-phase project in 2006, including rerunning the Danish experiment. 713 1 Henrik Svensmark 13 CERN plans to use an accelerator rather than rely on natural cosmic rays. 714 1 Henrik Svensmark 13 CERN's multinational project will give scientists a permanent facility where they can study the effects of both cosmic rays and charged particles in the Earth's atmosphere. 715 1 Henrik Svensmark 13 CERN's project is named CLOUD (Cosmics Leaving OUtdoor Droplets). 716 1 Henrik Svensmark 13 CERN posted a 2009 progress report on the CLOUD project. 717 1 Henrik Svensmark 14 On 25 August 2011, the first result of the experiment were published. 718 1 Henrik Svensmark 14 They show that vapor traces, assumed until now to account for aerosol formation in the lower atmosphere can explain only a tiny fraction of the observed atmospheric aerosol production. 719 1 Henrik Svensmark 14 The results also show that ionization from cosmic rays significantly enhances aerosol formation. 720 1 Henrik Svensmark 15 "Dunne ""et al." 721 1 Henrik Svensmark 15 (2016) have presented the main outcomes of 10 years of results obtained at the CLOUD experiment performed at CERN. 722 1 Henrik Svensmark 15 They have studied in detail the physico-chemical mechanisms and the kinetics of aerosols formation. 723 1 Henrik Svensmark 15 The nucleation process of water droplets/ice micro-crystals from water vapor reproduced in the CLOUD experiment and also directly observed in the Earth atmosphere do not only involve ions formation due to cosmic rays but also a range of complex chemical reactions with sulfuric acid, ammonia and organic compounds emitted in the air by human activities and by organisms living on land or in the oceans (plankton). 724 1 Henrik Svensmark 15 Although they observe that a fraction of cloud nuclei is effectively produced by ionisation due to the interaction of cosmic rays with the constituents of Earth atmosphere, this process is insufficient to attribute the present climate modifications to the fluctuations of the cosmic rays intensity modulated by changes in the solar activity and Earth magnetosphere. 725 1 Henrik Svensmark 16 An early (2003) critique by physicist Peter Laut of Svensmark's theory reanalyzed Svensmark's data and suggested that it does not support a correlation between cosmic rays and global temperature changes; it also disputes some of the theoretical bases for the theory. 726 1 Henrik Svensmark 16 "Svensmark replied to the paper, stating that ""...nowhere in Peter Laut’s (PL) paper has he been able to explain, where physical data have been handled incorrectly, how the character of my papers are misleading, or where my work does not live up to scientific standards" 727 1 Henrik Svensmark 17 "Mike Lockwood of the UK's Rutherford Appleton Laboratory and Claus Froehlich of the World Radiation Center in Switzerland published a paper in 2007 which concluded that the increase in mean global temperature observed since 1985 correlates so poorly with solar variability that no type of causal mechanism may be ascribed to it, although they accept that there is ""considerable evidence"" for solar influence on Earth's pre-industrial climate and to some degree also for climate changes in the first half of the 20th century." 728 1 Henrik Svensmark 18 Svensmark's coauthor Calder responded to the study in an interview with LondonBookReview.com, where he put forth the counterclaim that global temperature has not risen since 1999. 729 1 Henrik Svensmark 19 Later in 2007, Svensmark and Friis-Christensen brought out a Reply to Lockwood and Fröhlich which concludes that surface air temperature records used by Lockwood and Fröhlich apparently are a poor guide to Sun-driven physical processes, but tropospheric air temperature records do show an impressive negative correlation between cosmic-ray flux and air temperatures up to 2006 if a warming trend, oceanic oscillations and volcanism are removed from the temperature data. 730 1 Henrik Svensmark 19 They also point out that Lockwood and Fröhlich present their data by using running means of around 10 years, which creates the illusion of a continued temperature rise, whereas all unsmoothed data point to a flattening of the temperature, coincident with the present maxing out of the magnetic activity of the Sun, and which the continued rapid increase in CO concentrations seemingly has been unable to overrule. 731 1 Henrik Svensmark 20 "In April 2008, Professor Terry Sloan of Lancaster University published a paper in the journal ""Environmental Research Letters"" titled ""Testing the proposed causal link between cosmic rays and cloud cover"", which found no significant link between cloud cover and cosmic ray intensity in the last 20 years." 732 1 Henrik Svensmark 20 "Svensmark responded by saying ""Terry Sloan has simply failed to understand how cosmic rays work on clouds""." 733 1 Henrik Svensmark 20 "Dr. Giles Harrison of Reading University, describes the work as important ""as it provides an upper limit on the cosmic ray-cloud effect in global satellite cloud data""." 734 1 Henrik Svensmark 20 Harrison studied the effect of cosmic rays in the UK. 735 1 Henrik Svensmark 20 "He states: ""Although the statistically significant non-linear cosmic ray effect is small, it will have a considerably larger aggregate effect on longer timescale (e.g." 736 1 Henrik Svensmark 20 "century) climate variations when day-to-day variability averages out""." 737 1 Henrik Svensmark 20 Brian H. Brown (2008) of Sheffield University further found a statistically significant (p<0.05) short term 3% association between Galactic Cosmic Rays (GCR) and low level clouds over 22 years with a 15-hour delay. 738 1 Henrik Svensmark 20 Long-term changes in cloud cover (> 3 months) and GCR gave correlations of p=0.06. 739 1 Henrik Svensmark 21 More recently, Laken et al. 740 1 Henrik Svensmark 21 (2012) found that new high quality satellite data show that the El Niño Southern Oscillation is responsible for most changes in cloud cover at the global and regional levels. 741 1 Henrik Svensmark 21 They also found that galactic cosmic rays, and total solar irradiance did not have any statistically significant influence on changes in cloud cover. 742 1 Henrik Svensmark 22 "Lockwood (2012) conducted a thorough review of the scientific literature on the ""solar influence"" on climate." 743 1 Henrik Svensmark 22 It was found that when this influence is included appropriately into climate models causal climate change claims such as those made by Svensmark are shown to have been exaggerated. 744 1 Henrik Svensmark 22 Lockwood's review also highlighted the strength of evidence in favor of the solar influence on regional climates. 745 1 Henrik Svensmark 23 Sloan and Wolfendale (2013) demonstrated that while temperature models showed a small correlation every 22 years, less than 14 percent of global warming since the 1950s could be attributed to cosmic ray rate. 746 1 Henrik Svensmark 23 The study concluded that the cosmic ray rate did not match the changes in temperature, indicating that it was not a causal relationship. 747 1 Henrik Svensmark 23 "Another 2013 study found, contrary to Svensmark's claims, ""no statistically significant correlations between cosmic rays and global albedo or globally averaged cloud height." 748 1 Henrik Svensmark 24 In 2013, a laboratory study by Svensmark, Pepke and Pedersen published in Physics Letters A showed, that there is in fact a correlation between cosmic rays and the formation of aerosols of the type that seed clouds. 749 1 Henrik Svensmark 24 Extrapolating from the laboratory to the actual atmosphere, the authors asserted that solar activity is responsible for ca. 750 1 Henrik Svensmark 24 50 percent of temperature variation. 751 1 Henrik Svensmark 25 "In a detailed 2013 post on the scientists' blog RealClimate, Rasmus E. Benestad presented arguments for considering Svensmark's claims to be ""wildly exaggerated""." 752 1 Henrik Svensmark 25 "(""Time"" magazine has characterized the main purpose of this blog as a ""straightforward presentation of the physical evidence for global warming"".)" 753 1 Greenhouse gas 1 A greenhouse gas (sometimes abbreviated GHG) is a gas that absorbs and emits radiant energy within the thermal infrared range. 754 1 Greenhouse gas 1 Greenhouse gases cause the greenhouse effect. 755 1 Greenhouse gas 1 The primary greenhouse gases in Earth's atmosphere are water vapor, carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide and ozone. 756 1 Greenhouse gas 1 Without greenhouse gases, the average temperature of Earth's surface would be about , rather than the present average of . 757 1 Greenhouse gas 1 The atmospheres of Venus, Mars and Titan also contain greenhouse gases. 758 1 Greenhouse gas 2 Human activities since the beginning of the Industrial Revolution (around 1750) have produced a 45% increase in the atmospheric concentration of carbon dioxide (), from 280 ppm in 1750 to 415 ppm in 2019. 759 1 Greenhouse gas 2 "This increase has occurred despite the uptake of more than half of the emissions by various natural ""sinks"" involved in the carbon cycle." 760 1 Greenhouse gas 2 The vast majority of anthropogenic carbon dioxide emissions come from combustion of fossil fuels, principally coal, oil, and natural gas, with additional contributions coming from deforestation, changes in land use, soil erosion and agriculture (including livestock). 761 1 Greenhouse gas 3 Should greenhouse gas emissions continue at their rate in 2019, global warming could cause Earth's surface temperature to exceed historical values as early as 2047, with potentially harmful effects on ecosystems, biodiversity and human livelihoods. 762 1 Greenhouse gas 3 "At current emission rates, temperatures could increase by 2 °C, which the United Nations' IPCC designated as the upper limit to avoid ""dangerous"" levels, by 2036." 763 1 Greenhouse gas 4 The most common gases in Earth's atmosphere are nitrogen (78%), oxygen (21%), and argon (0.9%). 764 1 Greenhouse gas 4 The next most common gases are carbon dioxide (0.04%), nitrous oxide, methane, and ozone. 765 1 Greenhouse gas 4 They are trace gases that account for almost one tenth of 1% of Earth's atmosphere. 766 1 Greenhouse gas 5 Greenhouse gases are those that absorb and emit infrared radiation in the wavelength range emitted by Earth. 767 1 Greenhouse gas 5 In order, the most abundant greenhouse gases in Earth's atmosphere are: 768 1 Greenhouse gas 6 Atmospheric concentrations are determined by the balance between sources (emissions of the gas from human activities and natural systems) and sinks (the removal of the gas from the atmosphere by conversion to a different chemical compound or absorption by bodies of water). 769 1 Greenhouse gas 6 "The proportion of an emission remaining in the atmosphere after a specified time is the ""airborne fraction"" (AF)." 770 1 Greenhouse gas 6 "The ""annual airborne fraction"" is the ratio of the atmospheric increase in a given year to that year's total emissions." 771 1 Greenhouse gas 6 As of 2006 the annual airborne fraction for was about 0.45. 772 1 Greenhouse gas 6 The annual airborne fraction increased at a rate of 0.25 ± 0.21% per year over the period 1959–2006. 773 1 Greenhouse gas 7 The major atmospheric constituents: nitrogen (), oxygen (), and argon (Ar) are not greenhouse gases because molecules containing two atoms of the same element such as and have no net change in the distribution of their electrical charges when they vibrate, and monatomic gases such as Ar do not have vibrational modes. 774 1 Greenhouse gas 7 Hence they are almost totally unaffected by infrared radiation. 775 1 Greenhouse gas 7 Some molecules containing just two atoms of different elements, such as carbon monoxide (CO) and hydrogen chloride (HCl), do absorb infrared radiation, but these molecules are short-lived in the atmosphere owing to their reactivity and solubility. 776 1 Greenhouse gas 7 Therefore, they do not contribute significantly to the greenhouse effect and often are omitted when discussing greenhouse gases. 777 1 Greenhouse gas 8 Some gases have indirect radiative effects (whether or not they are greenhouse gases themselves). 778 1 Greenhouse gas 8 This happens in two main ways. 779 1 Greenhouse gas 8 One way is that when they break down in the atmosphere they produce another greenhouse gas. 780 1 Greenhouse gas 8 For example, methane and carbon monoxide (CO) are oxidized to give carbon dioxide (and methane oxidation also produces water vapor). 781 1 Greenhouse gas 8 Oxidation of CO to directly produces an unambiguous increase in radiative forcing although the reason is subtle. 782 1 Greenhouse gas 8 The peak of the thermal IR emission from Earth's surface is very close to a strong vibrational absorption band of (wavelength 15 microns, or wavenumber 667 cm). 783 1 Greenhouse gas 8 On the other hand, the single CO vibrational band only absorbs IR at much shorter wavelengths (4.7 microns, or 2145 cm), where the emission of radiant energy from Earth's surface is at least a factor of ten lower. 784 1 Greenhouse gas 8 Oxidation of methane to , which requires reactions with the OH radical, produces an instantaneous reduction in radiative absorption and emission since is a weaker greenhouse gas than methane. 785 1 Greenhouse gas 8 However, the oxidations of CO and are entwined since both consume OH radicals. 786 1 Greenhouse gas 8 In any case, the calculation of the total radiative effect includes both direct and indirect forcing. 787 1 Greenhouse gas 9 A second type of indirect effect happens when chemical reactions in the atmosphere involving these gases change the concentrations of greenhouse gases. 788 1 Greenhouse gas 9 For example, the destruction of non-methane volatile organic compounds (NMVOCs) in the atmosphere can produce ozone. 789 1 Greenhouse gas 9 The size of the indirect effect can depend strongly on where and when the gas is emitted. 790 1 Greenhouse gas 10 Methane has indirect effects in addition to forming . 791 1 Greenhouse gas 10 The main chemical that reacts with methane in the atmosphere is the hydroxyl radical (OH), thus more methane means that the concentration of OH goes down. 792 1 Greenhouse gas 10 Effectively, methane increases its own atmospheric lifetime and therefore its overall radiative effect. 793 1 Greenhouse gas 10 The oxidation of methane can produce both ozone and water; and is a major source of water vapor in the normally dry stratosphere. 794 1 Greenhouse gas 10 CO and NMVOCs produce when they are oxidized. 795 1 Greenhouse gas 10 They remove OH from the atmosphere, and this leads to higher concentrations of methane. 796 1 Greenhouse gas 10 The surprising effect of this is that the global warming potential of CO is three times that of . 797 1 Greenhouse gas 10 The same process that converts NMVOCs to carbon dioxide can also lead to the formation of tropospheric ozone. 798 1 Greenhouse gas 10 Halocarbons have an indirect effect because they destroy stratospheric ozone. 799 1 Greenhouse gas 10 Finally, hydrogen can lead to ozone production and increases as well as producing stratospheric water vapor. 800 1 Greenhouse gas 11 The major non-gas contributor to Earth's greenhouse effect, clouds, also absorb and emit infrared radiation and thus have an effect on greenhouse gas radiative properties. 801 1 Greenhouse gas 11 Clouds are water droplets or ice crystals suspended in the atmosphere. 802 1 Greenhouse gas 12 The contribution of each gas to the greenhouse effect is determined by the characteristics of that gas, its abundance, and any indirect effects it may cause. 803 1 Greenhouse gas 12 For example, the direct radiative effect of a mass of methane is about 84 times stronger than the same mass of carbon dioxide over a 20-year time frame but it is present in much smaller concentrations so that its total direct radiative effect is smaller, in part due to its shorter atmospheric lifetime. 804 1 Greenhouse gas 12 On the other hand, in addition to its direct radiative impact, methane has a large, indirect radiative effect because it contributes to ozone formation. 805 1 Greenhouse gas 12 "Shindell ""et al." 806 1 Greenhouse gas 12 (2005) argue that the contribution to climate change from methane is at least double previous estimates as a result of this effect. 807 1 Greenhouse gas 13 When ranked by their direct contribution to the greenhouse effect, the most important are: 808 1 Greenhouse gas 14 In addition to the main greenhouse gases listed above, other greenhouse gases include sulfur hexafluoride, hydrofluorocarbons and perfluorocarbons (see IPCC list of greenhouse gases). 809 1 Greenhouse gas 14 Some greenhouse gases are not often listed. 810 1 Greenhouse gas 14 For example, nitrogen trifluoride has a high global warming potential (GWP) but is only present in very small quantities. 811 1 Greenhouse gas 15 It is not possible to state that a certain gas causes an exact percentage of the greenhouse effect. 812 1 Greenhouse gas 15 This is because some of the gases absorb and emit radiation at the same frequencies as others, so that the total greenhouse effect is not simply the sum of the influence of each gas. 813 1 Greenhouse gas 15 The higher ends of the ranges quoted are for each gas alone; the lower ends account for overlaps with the other gases. 814 1 Greenhouse gas 15 In addition, some gases, such as methane, are known to have large indirect effects that are still being quantified. 815 1 Greenhouse gas 16 Aside from water vapor, which has a residence time of about nine days, major greenhouse gases are well mixed and take many years to leave the atmosphere. 816 1 Greenhouse gas 16 Although it is not easy to know with precision how long it takes greenhouse gases to leave the atmosphere, there are estimates for the principal greenhouse gases. 817 1 Greenhouse gas 16 Jacob (1999) defines the lifetime formula_1 of an atmospheric species X in a one-box model as the average time that a molecule of X remains in the box. 818 1 Greenhouse gas 16 Mathematically formula_1 can 819 1 Greenhouse gas 16 be defined as the ratio of the mass formula_3 (in kg) of X in the box to its removal rate, which is the sum of the flow of X out of the box 820 1 Greenhouse gas 16 (formula_4), 821 1 Greenhouse gas 16 chemical loss of X 822 1 Greenhouse gas 16 (formula_5), 823 1 Greenhouse gas 16 and deposition of X 824 1 Greenhouse gas 16 (all in kg/s): 825 1 Greenhouse gas 16 formula_7. 826 1 Greenhouse gas 16 If output of this gas into the box ceased, then after time formula_1, its concentration would decrease by about 63%. 827 1 Greenhouse gas 17 The atmospheric lifetime of a species therefore measures the time required to restore equilibrium following a sudden increase or decrease in its concentration in the atmosphere. 828 1 Greenhouse gas 17 Individual atoms or molecules may be lost or deposited to sinks such as the soil, the oceans and other waters, or vegetation and other biological systems, reducing the excess to background concentrations. 829 1 Greenhouse gas 17 The average time taken to achieve this is the mean lifetime. 830 1 Greenhouse gas 18 Carbon dioxide has a variable atmospheric lifetime, and cannot be specified precisely. 831 1 Greenhouse gas 18 The atmospheric lifetime of is estimated of the order of 30–95 years. 832 1 Greenhouse gas 18 This figure accounts for molecules being removed from the atmosphere by mixing into the ocean, photosynthesis, and other processes. 833 1 Greenhouse gas 18 However, this excludes the balancing fluxes of into the atmosphere from the geological reservoirs, which have slower characteristic rates. 834 1 Greenhouse gas 18 Although more than half of the emitted is removed from the atmosphere within a century, some fraction (about 20%) of emitted remains in the atmosphere for many thousands of years. 835 1 Greenhouse gas 19 Earth absorbs some of the radiant energy received from the sun, reflects some of it as light and reflects or radiates the rest back to space as heat. 836 1 Greenhouse gas 19 Earth's surface temperature depends on this balance between incoming and outgoing energy. 837 1 Greenhouse gas 19 If this energy balance is shifted, Earth's surface becomes warmer or cooler, leading to a variety of changes in global climate. 838 1 Greenhouse gas 20 A number of natural and man-made mechanisms can affect the global energy balance and force changes in Earth's climate. 839 1 Greenhouse gas 20 Greenhouse gases are one such mechanism. 840 1 Greenhouse gas 20 Greenhouse gases absorb and emit some of the outgoing energy radiated from Earth's surface, causing that heat to be retained in the lower atmosphere. 841 1 Greenhouse gas 20 As explained above, some greenhouse gases remain in the atmosphere for decades or even centuries, and therefore can affect Earth's energy balance over a long period. 842 1 Greenhouse gas 20 Radiative forcing quantifies the effect of factors that influence Earth's energy balance, including changes in the concentrations of greenhouse gases. 843 1 Greenhouse gas 20 Positive radiative forcing leads to warming by increasing the net incoming energy, whereas negative radiative forcing leads to cooling. 844 1 Greenhouse gas 21 The global warming potential (GWP) depends on both the efficiency of the molecule as a greenhouse gas and its atmospheric lifetime. 845 1 Greenhouse gas 21 GWP is measured relative to the same mass of and evaluated for a specific timescale. 846 1 Greenhouse gas 21 Thus, if a gas has a high (positive) radiative forcing but also a short lifetime, it will have a large GWP on a 20-year scale but a small one on a 100-year scale. 847 1 Greenhouse gas 21 Conversely, if a molecule has a longer atmospheric lifetime than its GWP will increase when the timescale is considered. 848 1 Greenhouse gas 21 Carbon dioxide is defined to have a GWP of 1 over all time periods. 849 1 Greenhouse gas 22 Methane has an atmospheric lifetime of 12 ± 3 years. 850 1 Greenhouse gas 22 The 2007 IPCC report lists the GWP as 72 over a time scale of 20 years, 25 over 100 years and 7.6 over 500 years. 851 1 Greenhouse gas 22 A 2014 analysis, however, states that although methane's initial impact is about 100 times greater than that of , because of the shorter atmospheric lifetime, after six or seven decades, the impact of the two gases is about equal, and from then on methane's relative role continues to decline. 852 1 Greenhouse gas 22 The decrease in GWP at longer times is because methane is degraded to water and through chemical reactions in the atmosphere. 853 1 Greenhouse gas 23 Examples of the atmospheric lifetime and GWP relative to for several greenhouse gases are given in the following table: 854 1 Greenhouse gas 24 The use of CFC-12 (except some essential uses) has been phased out due to its ozone depleting properties. 855 1 Greenhouse gas 24 The phasing-out of less active HCFC-compounds will be completed in 2030. 856 1 Greenhouse gas 25 Aside from purely human-produced synthetic halocarbons, most greenhouse gases have both natural and human-caused sources. 857 1 Greenhouse gas 25 During the pre-industrial Holocene, concentrations of existing gases were roughly constant, because the large natural sources and sinks roughly balanced. 858 1 Greenhouse gas 25 In the industrial era, human activities have added greenhouse gases to the atmosphere, mainly through the burning of fossil fuels and clearing of forests. 859 1 Greenhouse gas 26 "The 2007 Fourth Assessment Report compiled by the IPCC (AR4) noted that ""changes in atmospheric concentrations of greenhouse gases and aerosols, land cover and solar radiation alter the energy balance of the climate system"", and concluded that ""increases in anthropogenic greenhouse gas concentrations is very likely to have caused most of the increases in global average temperatures since the mid-20th century""." 860 1 Greenhouse gas 26 "In AR4, ""most of"" is defined as more than 50%." 861 1 Greenhouse gas 27 Abbreviations used in the two tables below: ppm = parts-per-million; ppb = parts-per-billion; ppt = parts-per-trillion; W/m = watts per square metre 862 1 Greenhouse gas 28 Ice cores provide evidence for greenhouse gas concentration variations over the past 800,000 years (see the following section). 863 1 Greenhouse gas 28 Both and vary between glacial and interglacial phases, and concentrations of these gases correlate strongly with temperature. 864 1 Greenhouse gas 28 Direct data does not exist for periods earlier than those represented in the ice core record, a record that indicates mole fractions stayed within a range of 180 ppm to 280 ppm throughout the last 800,000 years, until the increase of the last 250 years. 865 1 Greenhouse gas 28 However, various proxies and modeling suggests larger variations in past epochs; 500 million years ago levels were likely 10 times higher than now. 866 1 Greenhouse gas 28 Indeed, higher concentrations are thought to have prevailed throughout most of the Phanerozoic eon, with concentrations four to six times current concentrations during the Mesozoic era, and ten to fifteen times current concentrations during the early Palaeozoic era until the middle of the Devonian period, about 400 Ma. 867 1 Greenhouse gas 28 The spread of land plants is thought to have reduced concentrations during the late Devonian, and plant activities as both sources and sinks of have since been important in providing stabilising feedbacks. 868 1 Greenhouse gas 28 Earlier still, a 200-million year period of intermittent, widespread glaciation extending close to the equator (Snowball Earth) appears to have been ended suddenly, about 550 Ma, by a colossal volcanic outgassing that raised the concentration of the atmosphere abruptly to 12%, about 350 times modern levels, causing extreme greenhouse conditions and carbonate deposition as limestone at the rate of about 1 mm per day. 869 1 Greenhouse gas 28 This episode marked the close of the Precambrian eon, and was succeeded by the generally warmer conditions of the Phanerozoic, during which multicellular animal and plant life evolved. 870 1 Greenhouse gas 28 No volcanic carbon dioxide emission of comparable scale has occurred since. 871 1 Greenhouse gas 28 In the modern era, emissions to the atmosphere from volcanoes are approximately 0.645 billion tonnes of per year, whereas humans contribute 29 billion tonnes of each year. 872 1 Greenhouse gas 29 Measurements from Antarctic ice cores 873 1 Greenhouse gas 29 show that before industrial emissions started atmospheric mole fractions were about 280 parts per million (ppm), and stayed between 260 and 280 during the preceding ten thousand years. 874 1 Greenhouse gas 29 Carbon dioxide mole fractions in the atmosphere have gone up by approximately 35 percent since the 1900s, rising from 280 parts per million by volume to 387 parts per million in 2009. 875 1 Greenhouse gas 29 One study using evidence from stomata of fossilized leaves suggests greater variability, with carbon dioxide mole fractions above 300 ppm during the period seven to ten thousand years ago, though others have argued that these findings more likely reflect calibration or contamination problems rather than actual variability. 876 1 Greenhouse gas 29 Because of the way air is trapped in ice (pores in the ice close off slowly to form bubbles deep within the firn) and the time period represented in each ice sample analyzed, these figures represent averages of atmospheric concentrations of up to a few centuries rather than annual or decadal levels. 877 1 Greenhouse gas 30 Since the beginning of the Industrial Revolution, the concentrations of most of the greenhouse gases have increased. 878 1 Greenhouse gas 30 For example, the mole fraction of carbon dioxide has increased from 280 ppm to 415 ppm, or 120 ppm over modern pre-industrial levels. 879 1 Greenhouse gas 30 The first 30 ppm increase took place in about 200 years, from the start of the Industrial Revolution to 1958; however the next 90 ppm increase took place within 56 years, from 1958 to 2014. 880 1 Greenhouse gas 31 Recent data also shows that the concentration is increasing at a higher rate. 881 1 Greenhouse gas 31 In the 1960s, the average annual increase was only 37% of what it was in 2000 through 2007. 882 1 Greenhouse gas 32 Total cumulative emissions from 1870 to 2017 were 425±20 GtC (1539 GtCO) from fossil fuels and industry, and 180±60 GtC (660 GtCO) from land use change. 883 1 Greenhouse gas 32 Land-use change, such as deforestation, caused about 31% of cumulative emissions over 1870–2017, coal 32%, oil 25%, and gas 10%. 884 1 Greenhouse gas 33 Today, the stock of carbon in the atmosphere increases by more than 3 million tonnes per annum (0.04%) compared with the existing stock. 885 1 Greenhouse gas 33 This increase is the result of human activities by burning fossil fuels, deforestation and forest degradation in tropical and boreal regions. 886 1 Greenhouse gas 34 The other greenhouse gases produced from human activity show similar increases in both amount and rate of increase. 887 1 Greenhouse gas 34 Many observations are available online in a variety of Atmospheric Chemistry Observational Databases. 888 1 Greenhouse gas 35 Since about 1750 human activity has increased the concentration of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases. 889 1 Greenhouse gas 35 Measured atmospheric concentrations of carbon dioxide are currently 100 ppm higher than pre-industrial levels. 890 1 Greenhouse gas 35 Natural sources of carbon dioxide are more than 20 times greater than sources due to human activity, but over periods longer than a few years natural sources are closely balanced by natural sinks, mainly photosynthesis of carbon compounds by plants and marine plankton. 891 1 Greenhouse gas 35 As a result of this balance, the atmospheric mole fraction of carbon dioxide remained between 260 and 280 parts per million for the 10,000 years between the end of the last glacial maximum and the start of the industrial era. 892 1 Greenhouse gas 36 It is likely that anthropogenic (i.e., human-induced) warming, such as that due to elevated greenhouse gas levels, has had a discernible influence on many physical and biological systems. 893 1 Greenhouse gas 36 Future warming is projected to have a range of impacts, including sea level rise, increased frequencies and severities of some extreme weather events, loss of biodiversity, and regional changes in agricultural productivity. 894 1 Greenhouse gas 37 The main sources of greenhouse gases due to human activity are: 895 1 Greenhouse gas 38 The seven sources of from fossil fuel combustion are (with percentage contributions for 2000–2004): 896 1 Greenhouse gas 38 Carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide () and three groups of fluorinated gases (sulfur hexafluoride (), hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs), and perfluorocarbons (PFCs)) are the major anthropogenic greenhouse gases, and are regulated under the Kyoto Protocol international treaty, which came into force in 2005. 897 1 Greenhouse gas 38 Emissions limitations specified in the Kyoto Protocol expired in 2012. 898 1 Greenhouse gas 38 The Cancún agreement, agreed on in 2010, includes voluntary pledges made by 76 countries to control emissions. 899 1 Greenhouse gas 38 At the time of the agreement, these 76 countries were collectively responsible for 85% of annual global emissions. 900 1 Greenhouse gas 39 Although CFCs are greenhouse gases, they are regulated by the Montreal Protocol, which was motivated by CFCs' contribution to ozone depletion rather than by their contribution to global warming. 901 1 Greenhouse gas 39 Note that ozone depletion has only a minor role in greenhouse warming, though the two processes often are confused in the media. 902 1 Greenhouse gas 39 On 15 October 2016, negotiators from over 170 nations meeting at the summit of the United Nations Environment Programme reached a legally binding accord to phase out hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs) in an amendment to the Montreal Protocol. 903 1 Greenhouse gas 40 The section presents information about Greenhouse gas emissions from different sectors of the economy. 904 1 Greenhouse gas 41 Electricity generation emits over a quarter of global greenhouse gases. 905 1 Greenhouse gas 41 Coal-fired power stations are the single largest emitter, with over 10 Gt in 2018. 906 1 Greenhouse gas 41 Although much less polluting than coal plants, natural gas-fired power plants are also major emitters. 907 1 Greenhouse gas 42 According to UNEP, global tourism is closely linked to climate change. 908 1 Greenhouse gas 42 Tourism is a significant contributor to the increasing concentrations of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere. 909 1 Greenhouse gas 42 Tourism accounts for about 50% of traffic movements. 910 1 Greenhouse gas 42 Rapidly expanding air traffic contributes about 2.5% of the production of . 911 1 Greenhouse gas 42 The number of international travelers is expected to increase from 594 million in 1996 to 1.6 billion by 2020, adding greatly to the problem unless steps are taken to reduce emissions. 912 1 Greenhouse gas 43 The trucking and haulage industry plays a part in production of , contributing around 20% of the UK's total carbon emissions a year, with only the energy industry having a larger impact at around 39%. 913 1 Greenhouse gas 43 Average carbon emissions within the haulage industry are falling—in the thirty-year period from 1977 to 2007, the carbon emissions associated with a 200-mile journey fell by 21 percent; NOx emissions are also down 87 percent, whereas journey times have fallen by around a third. 914 1 Greenhouse gas 43 Due to their size, HGVs often receive criticism regarding their CO emissions; however, rapid development in engine technology and fuel management is having a largely positive effect. 915 1 Greenhouse gas 44 Plastic is produced mainly from Fossil fuels. 916 1 Greenhouse gas 44 Plastic manufacturing is estimated to use 8 percent of yearly global oil production. 917 1 Greenhouse gas 44 The EPA estimates as many as five ounces of carbon dioxide are emitted for each ounce of polyethylene terephthalate (PET) produced—the type of plastic most commonly used for beverage bottles, the transportation produce greenhouse gases also. 918 1 Greenhouse gas 44 Plastic waste emits carbon dioxide when it degrades. 919 1 Greenhouse gas 44 In 2018 research claimed that some of the most common plastics in the environment release the greenhouse gases methane and ethylene when exposed to sunlight in an amount that can affect the earth climate. 920 1 Greenhouse gas 45 From the other side, if it is placed in a landfill, it becomes a carbon sink although biodegradable plastics have caused methane emissions. 921 1 Greenhouse gas 46 "In 2019 a new report ""Plastic and Climate"" was published." 922 1 Greenhouse gas 46 According to the report plastic will contribute greenhouse gases in the equivalent of 850 million tonnes of carbon dioxide (CO) to the atmosphere in 2019. 923 1 Greenhouse gas 46 In current trend, annual emissions will grow to 1.34 billion tonnes by 2030. 924 1 Greenhouse gas 46 By 2050 plastic could emit 56 billion tonnes of Greenhouse gas emissions, as much as 14 percent of the Earth's remaining carbon budget. 925 1 Greenhouse gas 46 The report says that only solutions which involve a reduction in consumption can solve the problem, while others like biodegradable plastic, ocean cleanup, using renewable energy in plastic industry can do little, and in some cases may even worsen it. 926 1 Greenhouse gas 47 The pharmaceutical industry emitted 52 megatonnes of Carbon dioxide into the atmosphere in 2015. 927 1 Greenhouse gas 47 This is more than the automotive sector. 928 1 Greenhouse gas 47 However this analysis used the combined emissions of conglomerates which produce pharmaceuticals as well as other products. 929 1 Greenhouse gas 48 Water vapor accounts for the largest percentage of the greenhouse effect, between 36% and 66% for clear sky conditions and between 66% and 85% when including clouds. 930 1 Greenhouse gas 48 Water vapor concentrations fluctuate regionally, but human activity does not directly affect water vapor concentrations except at local scales, such as near irrigated fields. 931 1 Greenhouse gas 48 Indirectly, human activity that increases global temperatures will increase water vapor concentrations, a process known as water vapor feedback. 932 1 Greenhouse gas 48 The atmospheric concentration of vapor is highly variable and depends largely on temperature, from less than 0.01% in extremely cold regions up to 3% by mass in saturated air at about 32 °C. 933 1 Greenhouse gas 48 (See Relative humidity#other important facts.) 934 1 Greenhouse gas 49 The average residence time of a water molecule in the atmosphere is only about nine days, compared to years or centuries for other greenhouse gases such as and . 935 1 Greenhouse gas 49 Thus, water vapor responds to and amplifies effects of the other greenhouse gases. 936 1 Greenhouse gas 49 The Clausius–Clapeyron relation establishes that more water vapor will be present per unit volume at elevated temperatures. 937 1 Greenhouse gas 49 This and other basic principles indicate that warming associated with increased concentrations of the other greenhouse gases also will increase the concentration of water vapor (assuming that the relative humidity remains approximately constant; modeling and observational studies find that this is indeed so). 938 1 Greenhouse gas 49 "Because water vapor is a greenhouse gas, this results in further warming and so is a ""positive feedback"" that amplifies the original warming." 939 1 Greenhouse gas 49 Eventually other earth processes offset these positive feedbacks, stabilizing the global temperature at a new equilibrium and preventing the loss of Earth's water through a Venus-like runaway greenhouse effect. 940 1 Greenhouse gas 50 Between the period 1970 to 2004, greenhouse gas emissions (measured in -equivalent) increased at an average rate of 1.6% per year, with emissions from the use of fossil fuels growing at a rate of 1.9% per year. 941 1 Greenhouse gas 50 Total anthropogenic emissions at the end of 2009 were estimated at 49.5 gigatonnes -equivalent. 942 1 Greenhouse gas 50 These emissions include from fossil fuel use and from land use, as well as emissions of methane, nitrous oxide and other greenhouse gases covered by the Kyoto Protocol. 943 1 Greenhouse gas 51 At present, the primary source of emissions is the burning of coal, natural gas, and petroleum for electricity and heat. 944 1 Greenhouse gas 52 According to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), GHG emissions in the United States can be traced from different sectors. 945 1 Greenhouse gas 53 There are several ways of measuring greenhouse gas emissions, for example, see World Bank (2010) for tables of national emissions data. 946 1 Greenhouse gas 53 Some variables that have been reported include: 947 1 Greenhouse gas 54 "These measures are sometimes used by countries to assert various policy/ethical positions on climate change (Banuri ""et al." 948 1 Greenhouse gas 54 , 1996, p. 94). 949 1 Greenhouse gas 54 The use of different measures leads to a lack of comparability, which is problematic when monitoring progress towards targets. 950 1 Greenhouse gas 54 There are arguments for the adoption of a common measurement tool, or at least the development of communication between different tools. 951 1 Greenhouse gas 55 Emissions may be measured over long time periods. 952 1 Greenhouse gas 55 This measurement type is called historical or cumulative emissions. 953 1 Greenhouse gas 55 Cumulative emissions give some indication of who is responsible for the build-up in the atmospheric concentration of greenhouse gases (IEA, 2007, p. 199). 954 1 Greenhouse gas 56 The national accounts balance would be positively related to carbon emissions. 955 1 Greenhouse gas 56 The national accounts balance shows the difference between exports and imports. 956 1 Greenhouse gas 56 For many richer nations, such as the United States, the accounts balance is negative because more goods are imported than they are exported. 957 1 Greenhouse gas 56 This is mostly due to the fact that it is cheaper to produce goods outside of developed countries, leading the economies of developed countries to become increasingly dependent on services and not goods. 958 1 Greenhouse gas 56 We believed that a positive accounts balance would means that more production was occurring in a country, so more factories working would increase carbon emission levels. 959 1 Greenhouse gas 57 Emissions may also be measured across shorter time periods. 960 1 Greenhouse gas 57 Emissions changes may, for example, be measured against a base year of 1990. 961 1 Greenhouse gas 57 1990 was used in the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) as the base year for emissions, and is also used in the Kyoto Protocol (some gases are also measured from the year 1995). 962 1 Greenhouse gas 57 A country's emissions may also be reported as a proportion of global emissions for a particular year. 963 1 Greenhouse gas 58 Another measurement is of per capita emissions. 964 1 Greenhouse gas 58 This divides a country's total annual emissions by its mid-year population. 965 1 Greenhouse gas 58 "Per capita emissions may be based on historical or annual emissions (Banuri ""et al." 966 1 Greenhouse gas 58 , 1996, pp. 967 1 Greenhouse gas 58 106–07). 968 1 Greenhouse gas 59 While cities are sometimes considered to be disproportionate contributors to emissions, per-capita emissions tend to be lower for cities than the averages in their countries. 969 1 Greenhouse gas 60 Land-use change, e.g., the clearing of forests for agricultural use, can affect the concentration of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere by altering how much carbon flows out of the atmosphere into carbon sinks. 970 1 Greenhouse gas 60 "Accounting for land-use change can be understood as an attempt to measure ""net"" emissions, i.e., gross emissions from all sources minus the removal of emissions from the atmosphere by carbon sinks (Banuri ""et al." 971 1 Greenhouse gas 60 , 1996, pp. 972 1 Greenhouse gas 60 92–93). 973 1 Greenhouse gas 61 There are substantial uncertainties in the measurement of net carbon emissions. 974 1 Greenhouse gas 61 "Additionally, there is controversy over how carbon sinks should be allocated between different regions and over time (Banuri ""et al." 975 1 Greenhouse gas 61 , 1996, p. 93). 976 1 Greenhouse gas 61 For instance, concentrating on more recent changes in carbon sinks is likely to favour those regions that have deforested earlier, e.g., Europe. 977 1 Greenhouse gas 62 Greenhouse gas intensity is a ratio between greenhouse gas emissions and another metric, e.g., gross domestic product (GDP) or energy use. 978 1 Greenhouse gas 62 "The terms ""carbon intensity"" and ""emissions intensity"" are also sometimes used." 979 1 Greenhouse gas 62 "Emission intensities may be calculated using market exchange rates (MER) or purchasing power parity (PPP) (Banuri ""et al." 980 1 Greenhouse gas 62 , 1996, p. 96). 981 1 Greenhouse gas 62 Calculations based on MER show large differences in intensities between developed and developing countries, whereas calculations based on PPP show smaller differences. 982 1 Greenhouse gas 63 Cumulative anthropogenic (i.e., human-emitted) emissions of from fossil fuel use are a major cause of global warming, and give some indication of which countries have contributed most to human-induced climate change. 983 1 Greenhouse gas 64 "The table above to the left is based on Banuri ""et al." 984 1 Greenhouse gas 64 (1996, p. 94). 985 1 Greenhouse gas 64 Overall, developed countries accounted for 83.8% of industrial emissions over this time period, and 67.8% of total emissions. 986 1 Greenhouse gas 64 Developing countries accounted for industrial emissions of 16.2% over this time period, and 32.2% of total emissions. 987 1 Greenhouse gas 64 The estimate of total emissions includes biotic carbon emissions, mainly from deforestation. 988 1 Greenhouse gas 64 "Banuri ""et al." 989 1 Greenhouse gas 64 (1996, p. 94) calculated per capita cumulative emissions based on then-current population. 990 1 Greenhouse gas 64 The ratio in per capita emissions between industrialized countries and developing countries was estimated at more than 10 to 1. 991 1 Greenhouse gas 65 "Including biotic emissions brings about the same controversy mentioned earlier regarding carbon sinks and land-use change (Banuri ""et al." 992 1 Greenhouse gas 65 , 1996, pp. 993 1 Greenhouse gas 65 93–94). 994 1 Greenhouse gas 65 The actual calculation of net emissions is very complex, and is affected by how carbon sinks are allocated between regions and the dynamics of the climate system. 995 1 Greenhouse gas 66 Non-OECD countries accounted for 42% of cumulative energy-related emissions between 1890 and 2007. 996 1 Greenhouse gas 66 Over this time period, the US accounted for 28% of emissions; the EU, 23%; Russia, 11%; China, 9%; other OECD countries, 5%; Japan, 4%; India, 3%; and the rest of the world, 18%. 997 1 Greenhouse gas 67 Between 1970 and 2004, global growth in annual emissions was driven by North America, Asia, and the Middle East. 998 1 Greenhouse gas 67 The sharp acceleration in emissions since 2000 to more than a 3% increase per year (more than 2 ppm per year) from 1.1% per year during the 1990s is attributable to the lapse of formerly declining trends in carbon intensity of both developing and developed nations. 999 1 Greenhouse gas 67 China was responsible for most of global growth in emissions during this period. 1000 1 Greenhouse gas 67 Localised plummeting emissions associated with the collapse of the Soviet Union have been followed by slow emissions growth in this region due to more efficient energy use, made necessary by the increasing proportion of it that is exported. 1001 1 Greenhouse gas 67 In comparison, methane has not increased appreciably, and by 0.25% y. 1002 1 Greenhouse gas 68 Using different base years for measuring emissions has an effect on estimates of national contributions to global warming. 1003 1 Greenhouse gas 68 This can be calculated by dividing a country's highest contribution to global warming starting from a particular base year, by that country's minimum contribution to global warming starting from a particular base year. 1004 1 Greenhouse gas 68 Choosing between base years of 1750, 1900, 1950, and 1990 has a significant effect for most countries. 1005 1 Greenhouse gas 68 Within the G8 group of countries, it is most significant for the UK, France and Germany. 1006 1 Greenhouse gas 68 These countries have a long history of emissions (see the section on Cumulative and historical emissions). 1007 1 Greenhouse gas 69 Annual per capita emissions in the industrialized countries are typically as much as ten times the average in developing countries. 1008 1 Greenhouse gas 69 Due to China's fast economic development, its annual per capita emissions are quickly approaching the levels of those in the Annex I group of the Kyoto Protocol (i.e., the developed countries excluding the US). 1009 1 Greenhouse gas 69 Other countries with fast growing emissions are South Korea, Iran, and Australia (which apart from the oil rich Persian Gulf states, now has the highest percapita emission rate in the world). 1010 1 Greenhouse gas 69 On the other hand, annual per capita emissions of the EU-15 and the US are gradually decreasing over time. 1011 1 Greenhouse gas 69 Emissions in Russia and Ukraine have decreased fastest since 1990 due to economic restructuring in these countries. 1012 1 Greenhouse gas 70 Energy statistics for fast growing economies are less accurate than those for the industrialized countries. 1013 1 Greenhouse gas 70 For China's annual emissions in 2008, the Netherlands Environmental Assessment Agency estimated an uncertainty range of about 10%. 1014 1 Greenhouse gas 71 The greenhouse gas footprint refers to the emissions resulting from the creation of products or services. 1015 1 Greenhouse gas 71 It is more comprehensive than the commonly used carbon footprint, which measures only carbon dioxide, one of many greenhouse gases. 1016 1 Greenhouse gas 72 2015 was the first year to see both total global economic growth and a reduction of carbon emissions. 1017 1 Greenhouse gas 73 In 2009, the annual top ten emitting countries accounted for about two-thirds of the world's annual energy-related emissions. 1018 1 Greenhouse gas 74 "One way of attributing greenhouse gas emissions is to measure the embedded emissions (also referred to as ""embodied emissions"") of goods that are being consumed." 1019 1 Greenhouse gas 74 Emissions are usually measured according to production, rather than consumption. 1020 1 Greenhouse gas 74 For example, in the main international treaty on climate change (the UNFCCC), countries report on emissions produced within their borders, e.g., the emissions produced from burning fossil fuels. 1021 1 Greenhouse gas 74 Under a production-based accounting of emissions, embedded emissions on imported goods are attributed to the exporting, rather than the importing, country. 1022 1 Greenhouse gas 74 Under a consumption-based accounting of emissions, embedded emissions on imported goods are attributed to the importing country, rather than the exporting, country. 1023 1 Greenhouse gas 75 Davis and Caldeira (2010) found that a substantial proportion of emissions are traded internationally. 1024 1 Greenhouse gas 75 The net effect of trade was to export emissions from China and other emerging markets to consumers in the US, Japan, and Western Europe. 1025 1 Greenhouse gas 75 Based on annual emissions data from the year 2004, and on a per-capita consumption basis, the top-5 emitting countries were found to be (in t per person, per year): Luxembourg (34.7), the US (22.0), Singapore (20.2), Australia (16.7), and Canada (16.6). 1026 1 Greenhouse gas 75 Carbon Trust research revealed that approximately 25% of all emissions from human activities 'flow' (i.e., are imported or exported) from one country to another. 1027 1 Greenhouse gas 75 Major developed economies were found to be typically net importers of embodied carbon emissions—with UK consumption emissions 34% higher than production emissions, and Germany (29%), Japan (19%) and the US (13%) also significant net importers of embodied emissions. 1028 1 Greenhouse gas 76 Governments have taken action to reduce greenhouse gas emissions to mitigate climate change. 1029 1 Greenhouse gas 76 Assessments of policy effectiveness have included work by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, International Energy Agency, and United Nations Environment Programme. 1030 1 Greenhouse gas 76 Policies implemented by governments have included national and regional targets to reduce emissions, promoting energy efficiency, and support for renewable energy such as Solar energy as an effective use of renewable energy because solar uses energy from the sun and does not release pollutants into the air. 1031 1 Greenhouse gas 77 Countries and regions listed in Annex I of the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) (i.e., the OECD and former planned economies of the Soviet Union) are required to submit periodic assessments to the UNFCCC of actions they are taking to address climate change. 1032 1 Greenhouse gas 77 Analysis by the UNFCCC (2011) suggested that policies and measures undertaken by Annex I Parties may have produced emission savings of 1.5 thousand Tg -eq in the year 2010, with most savings made in the energy sector. 1033 1 Greenhouse gas 77 "The projected emissions saving of 1.5 thousand Tg -eq is measured against a hypothetical ""baseline"" of Annex I emissions, i.e., projected Annex I emissions in the absence of policies and measures." 1034 1 Greenhouse gas 77 The total projected Annex I saving of 1.5 thousand -eq does not include emissions savings in seven of the Annex I Parties. 1035 1 Greenhouse gas 78 A wide range of projections of future emissions have been produced. 1036 1 Greenhouse gas 78 "Rogner ""et al." 1037 1 Greenhouse gas 78 (2007) assessed the scientific literature on greenhouse gas projections. 1038 1 Greenhouse gas 78 "Rogner ""et al." 1039 1 Greenhouse gas 78 (2007) concluded that unless energy policies changed substantially, the world would continue to depend on fossil fuels until 2025–2030. 1040 1 Greenhouse gas 78 Projections suggest that more than 80% of the world's energy will come from fossil fuels. 1041 1 Greenhouse gas 78 "This conclusion was based on ""much evidence"" and ""high agreement"" in the literature." 1042 1 Greenhouse gas 78 Projected annual energy-related emissions in 2030 were 40–110% higher than in 2000, with two-thirds of the increase originating in developing countries. 1043 1 Greenhouse gas 78 Projected annual per capita emissions in developed country regions remained substantially lower (2.8–5.1 tonnes ) than those in developed country regions (9.6–15.1 tonnes ). 1044 1 Greenhouse gas 78 "Projections consistently showed increase in annual world emissions of ""Kyoto"" gases, measured in -equivalent) of 25–90% by 2030, compared to 2000." 1045 1 Greenhouse gas 79 One liter of gasoline, when used as a fuel, produces (about 1300 liters or 1.3 cubic meters) of carbon dioxide, a greenhouse gas. 1046 1 Greenhouse gas 79 One US gallon produces 19.4 lb (1,291.5 gallons or 172.65 cubic feet) 1047 1 Greenhouse gas 80 A 2011 IPCC report included a literature review of numerous energy sources' total life cycle emissions. 1048 1 Greenhouse gas 80 Below are the emission values that fell at the 50th percentile of all studies surveyed. 1049 1 Greenhouse gas 81 Greenhouse gases can be removed from the atmosphere by various processes, as a consequence of: 1050 1 Greenhouse gas 82 A number of technologies remove greenhouse gases emissions from the atmosphere. 1051 1 Greenhouse gas 82 Most widely analysed are those that remove carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, either to geologic formations such as bio-energy with carbon capture and storage and carbon dioxide air capture, or to the soil as in the case with biochar. 1052 1 Greenhouse gas 82 The IPCC has pointed out that many long-term climate scenario models require large-scale manmade negative emissions to avoid serious climate change. 1053 1 Greenhouse gas 83 "In the late 19th century scientists experimentally discovered that and do not absorb infrared radiation (called, at that time, ""dark radiation""), while water (both as true vapor and condensed in the form of microscopic droplets suspended in clouds) and and other poly-atomic gaseous molecules do absorb infrared radiation." 1054 1 Greenhouse gas 83 In the early 20th century researchers realized that greenhouse gases in the atmosphere made Earth's overall temperature higher than it would be without them. 1055 1 Greenhouse gas 83 During the late 20th century, a scientific consensus evolved that increasing concentrations of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere cause a substantial rise in global temperatures and changes to other parts of the climate system, with consequences for the environment and for human health. 1056 1 Austin Mast 1 Austin R. Mast is a research botanist. 1057 1 Austin Mast 1 Born in 1972, he obtained a Ph.D. from the University of Wisconsin–Madison in 2000. 1058 1 Austin Mast 1 He is currently an associate professor within the Department of Biological Science at Florida State University (FSU), and has been director of FSU's Robert K.

in the climate system is a threshold that, when exceeded, can lead to large changes in the state of the system. 1086 1 Tipping points in the climate system 1 Potential tipping points have been identified in the physical climate system, in impacted ecosystems, and sometimes in both. 1087 1 Tipping points in the climate system 1 For instance, feedback from the global carbon cycle is a driver for the transition between glacial and interglacial periods, with orbital forcing providing the initial trigger. 1088 1 Tipping points in the climate system 1 Earth's geologic temperature record includes many more examples of geologically rapid transitions between different climate states. 1089 1 Tipping points in the climate system 2 Climate tipping points are of particular interest in reference to concerns about climate change in the modern era. 1090 1 Tipping points in the climate system 2 Possible tipping point behaviour has been identified for the global mean surface temperature by studying self-reinforcing feedbacks and the past behavior of Earth's climate system. 1091 1 Tipping points in the climate system 2 Self-reinforcing feedbacks in the carbon cycle and planetary reflectivity could trigger a cascading set of tipping points that lead the world into a hothouse climate state. 1092 1 Tipping points in the climate system 3 Large-scale components of the Earth system that may pass a tipping point have been referred to as tipping elements. 1093 1 Tipping points in the climate system 3 Tipping elements are found in the Greenland and Antarctic ice sheets, possibly causing tens of meters of sea level rise. 1094 1 Tipping points in the climate system 3 These tipping points are not always abrupt. 1095 1 Tipping points in the climate system 3 For example, at some level of temperature rise the melt of a large part of the Greenland ice sheet and/or West Antarctic Ice Sheet will become inevitable; but the ice sheet itself may persist for many centuries. 1096 1 Tipping points in the climate system 3 Some tipping elements, like the collapse of ecosystems, are irreversible. 1097 1 Tipping points in the climate system 4 "The ""IPCC AR5"" defines a tipping point as an irreversible change in the climate system." 1098 1 Tipping points in the climate system 4 It states that the precise levels of climate change sufficient to trigger a tipping point remain uncertain, but that the risk associated with crossing multiple tipping points increases with rising temperature. 1099 1 Tipping points in the climate system 4 A more broad definition of tipping points is sometimes used as well, which includes abrupt but reversible tipping points. 1100 1 Tipping points in the climate system 5 In mathematics tipping points have been characterised into three types dependent on the underlying mechanisms: 1101 1 Tipping points in the climate system 7 "In the context of climate change, an ""adaptation tipping point"" has been defined as ""the threshold value or specific boundary condition where ecological, technical, economic, spatial or socially acceptable limits are exceeded." 1102 1 Tipping points in the climate system 8 There are many positive and negative feedbacks to global temperatures and the carbon cycle that have been identified. 1103 1 Tipping points in the climate system 8 The IPCC reports that feedbacks to increased temperatures are net positive for the remainder of this century, with the impact of cloud cover the largest uncertainty. 1104 1 Tipping points in the climate system 8 IPCC carbon cycle models show higher ocean uptake of carbon corresponding to higher concentration pathways, but land carbon uptake is uncertain due to the combined effect of climate change and land use changes. 1105 1 Tipping points in the climate system 9 The geologic record of temperature and greenhouse gas concentration allows climate scientists to gather information on climate feedbacks that lead to different climate states, such as the Late Quaternary (past 1.2 million years), the Pliocene period five million years ago and the Cretaceous period, 100 million years ago. 1106 1 Tipping points in the climate system 9 "Combining this information with the understanding of current climate change resulted in the finding that ""A 2 °C warming could activate important tipping elements, raising the temperature further to activate other tipping elements in a domino-like cascade that could take the Earth System to even higher temperatures""." 1107 1 Tipping points in the climate system 10 The speed of tipping point feedbacks is a critical concern and the geologic record often fails to provide clarity as to whether past temperature changes have taken only a few decades or many millennia of time. 1108 1 Tipping points in the climate system 10 For instance, a tipping point that was once feared to be abrupt and overwhelming is the release of clathrate compounds buried in seabeds and seabed permafrost, but that feedback is now thought to be chronic and long term. 1109 1 Tipping points in the climate system 11 Some individual feedbacks may be strong enough to trigger tipping points on their own. 1110 1 Tipping points in the climate system 11 A 2019 study predicts that if greenhouse gases reach three times the current level of atmospheric carbon dioxide that stratocumulus clouds could abruptly disperse, contributing an additional 8 degrees Celsius of warming. 1111 1 Tipping points in the climate system 12 The runaway greenhouse effect is used in astronomical circles to refer to a greenhouse effect that is so extreme that oceans boil away and render a planet uninhabitable, an irreversible climate state that happened on Venus. 1112 1 Tipping points in the climate system 12 "The IPCC Fifth Assessment Report states that ""a 'runaway greenhouse effect'—analogous to Venus—appears to have virtually no chance of being induced by anthropogenic activities." 1113 1 Tipping points in the climate system 12 Venus-like conditions on the Earth require a large long-term forcing that is unlikely to occur until the sun brightens by a few tens of percents, which will take a few billion years. 1114 1 Tipping points in the climate system 13 "While a runaway greenhouse effect on Earth is virtually impossible, there are indications that Earth could enter a ""moist greenhouse"" state that renders large parts of Earth uninhabitable if the climate forcing is large enough to make water vapour (HO) a major atmospheric constituent." 1115 1 Tipping points in the climate system 13 Conceivable levels of human-made climate forcing would increase water vapour to about 1% of the atmosphere's mass, thus increasing the rate of hydrogen escape to space. 1116 1 Tipping points in the climate system 13 If such a forcing were entirely due to CO, the weathering process would remove the excess atmospheric CO well before the ocean was significantly depleted. 1117 1 Tipping points in the climate system 14 A smooth or abrupt change in temperature can trigger global-scale tipping points. 1118 1 Tipping points in the climate system 14 In the cryosphere these include the irreversible melting of Greenland and Antarctic ice sheets. 1119 1 Tipping points in the climate system 14 In Greenland, a positive feedback cycle exists between melting and surface elevation. 1120 1 Tipping points in the climate system 14 At lower elevations, temperatures are higher, leading to additional melting. 1121 1 Tipping points in the climate system 14 This feedback loop can become so strong that irreversible melting occurs. 1122 1 Tipping points in the climate system 14 Marine ice sheet instability could trigger a tipping point in West Antarctica. 1123 1 Tipping points in the climate system 14 Crossing either of these tipping points leads to accelerated global sea level rise. 1124 1 Tipping points in the climate system 15 When fresh water gets released as a consequence of Greenland melting, a threshold may be crossed which leads to disruption of the thermohaline circulation. 1125 1 Tipping points in the climate system 15 The thermohaline circulation transports heat northward which is important for temperature regulation in the Atlantic region. 1126 1 Tipping points in the climate system 15 Risks for a complete shutdown are low to moderate under the Paris agreement levels of warming. 1127 1 Tipping points in the climate system 16 Other examples of possible large scale tipping elements are a shift in El Niño–Southern Oscillation. 1128 1 Tipping points in the climate system 16 After crossing a tipping point, the warm phase (El Niño) would start to occur more often. 1129 1 Tipping points in the climate system 16 Lastly, the southern ocean, which now absorbs a lot of carbon, might switch to a state where it does not do this anymore. 1130 1 Tipping points in the climate system 17 Climate change can trigger regional tipping points as well. 1131 1 Tipping points in the climate system 17 Examples are the disappearance of Arctic sea ice, the establishment of woody species in tundra, permafrost loss, the collapse of the monsoon of South Asia and a strengthening of the West African monsoon which would lead to greening of the Sahara and Sahel. 1132 1 Tipping points in the climate system 17 Deforestation may trigger a tipping point in rainforests (i.e. 1133 1 Tipping points in the climate system 17 Savannization in the Amazon rainforest, ...). 1134 1 Tipping points in the climate system 17 As rain forests recycle a large part of their rainfall, when a portion of the forest is destroyed local droughts may threaten the remainder. 1135 1 Tipping points in the climate system 17 Finally, boreal forests are considered a tipping element as well. 1136 1 Tipping points in the climate system 17 Local warming causes trees to die at a higher rate than before, in proportion to the rise in temperature. 1137 1 Tipping points in the climate system 17 As more trees die, the woodland becomes more open, leading to further warming and making forests more susceptible to fire. 1138 1 Tipping points in the climate system 17 The tipping point is difficult to predict, but is estimated to be between 3–4 °C of global temperature rise. 1139 1 Tipping points in the climate system 18 Crossing a threshold in one part of the climate system may trigger another tipping element to tip into a new state. 1140 1 Tipping points in the climate system 18 These are so-called cascading tipping points. 1141 1 Tipping points in the climate system 18 Ice loss in West Antarctica and Greenland will significantly alter ocean circulation. 1142 1 Tipping points in the climate system 18 Sustained warming of the northern high latitudes as a result of this process could activate tipping elements in that region, such as permafrost degradation, loss of Arctic sea ice, and Boreal forest dieback. 1143 1 Tipping points in the climate system 18 This illustrates that even at relatively low levels of global warming, relatively stable tipping elements may be activated. 1144 1 Tipping points in the climate system 19 For some of the tipping points described above, it may be possible to detect whether that part of the climate system is getting closer to a tipping point. 1145 1 Tipping points in the climate system 19 All parts of the climate system are sometimes disturbed by weather events. 1146 1 Tipping points in the climate system 19 After the disruption, the system moves back to its equilibrium. 1147 1 Tipping points in the climate system 19 A storm may damage sea ice, which grows back after the storm has passed. 1148 1 Tipping points in the climate system 19 If a system is getting closer to tipping, this restoration to its normal state might take increasingly longer, which can be used as a warning sign of tipping. 1149 1 Tipping points in the climate system 20 A 2019 UNEP study indicates that now at least for the Arctic and the Greenland ice sheet a tipping point has already been reached. 1150 1 Tipping points in the climate system 20 Because of dewing of permafrost soil, more methane (in addition to other short-lived climate pollutant) could enter the atmosphere earlier than previously predicted and the loss of reflecting ice shields has started a powerful positive feedback loop leading to ever higher temperatures. 1151 1 Tipping points in the climate system 20 The resulting accelerating climate instability in the polar region has potential to affect the global climate, outdating previous predictions about the point in the future when global tipping will occur. 1152 1 Tipping points in the climate system 21 In June 2019, satellite images from around the Arctic showed burning fires that are farther north and of greater magnitude than at any time in the 16-year satellite record, and some of the fires appear to have ignited peat soils. 1153 1 Tipping points in the climate system 21 Peat is an accumulation of partially decayed vegetation and is an efficient carbon sink. 1154 1 Tipping points in the climate system 21 Scientists are concerned because the long-lasting peat fires release their stored carbon back to the atmosphere, contributing to further warming. 1155 1 Tipping points in the climate system 21 The fires in June 2019, for example, released as much carbon dioxide as Sweden's annual greenhouse gas emissions. 1156 1 Tipping points in the climate system 22 If the climate tips into a hothouse Earth scenario, some scientists warn of food and water shortages, hundreds of millions of people being displaced by rising sea levels, unhealthy and unlivable conditions, and coastal storms having larger impacts. 1157 1 Tipping points in the climate system 22 Runaway climate change of 4–5 °C can make swathes of the planet around the equator uninhabitable, with sea levels up to 60 metres (197 ft) higher than they are today. 1158 1 Tipping points in the climate system 22 Humans cannot survive if the air is too moist and hot, which would happen for the majority of human populations if global temperatures rise by 11–12 °C, as land masses warm faster than the global average. 1159 1 Tipping points in the climate system 22 "Effects like these have been popularized in books like ""The Uninhabitable Earth"" and ""The End of Nature""." 1160 1 Ilulissat Declaration 1 The Ilulissat Declaration was announced on May 28, 2008 by the five coastal states of the Arctic Ocean (United States, Russia, Canada, Norway and The Kingdom of Denmark), meeting at the political level during the Arctic Ocean Conference in Ilulissat, Greenland to discuss the Arctic ocean, climate change, the protection of the marine environment, maritime safety, and division of emergency responsibilities if new shipping routes are opened. 1161 1 Ilulissat Declaration 2 "One of the chief goals written into the declaration was blockage of any ""new comprehensive international legal regime to govern the Arctic Ocean""." 1162 1 Ilulissat Declaration 2 "An additional pledge for ""the orderly settlement of any possible overlapping claims,"" was expected as the conference invitation originated in 2007 as a consequence of several jurisdictional disputes, including Hans Island and Arktika 2007.
" 1163 1 Ilulissat Declaration 2 Because the objective of the meeting was to discuss legal regimes and jurisdictional issues in the Arctic Ocean, only the five coastal states of that ocean were invited. 1164 1 Ilulissat Declaration 2 "The Arctic Council, being the only circumpolar Arctic international forum, which also includes the three Arctic states that do ""not"" border the Arctic Ocean (Sweden, Finland and Iceland) was deliberately not used as a forum." 1165 1 Ilulissat Declaration 2 These three states are therefore not a party to the Ilulissat Declaration. 1166 1 Ilulissat Declaration 2 Likewise, the Arctic indigenous peoples, who have a prominent position within the Arctic Council, were not involved in the Ilulissat negotiations. 1167 1 Ilulissat Declaration 3 The conference, held May 27 to May 29, 2008, was hosted by Per Stig Møller, Danish Minister of Foreign Affairs, and Hans Enoksen, Greenlandic Prime Minister. 1168 1 Ilulissat Declaration 3 The key ministerial level attendees included Sergey Lavrov, Russian Minister for Foreign Affairs, Jonas Gahr Støre, Norwegian Minister for Foreign Affairs, Gary Lunn, Canadian Minister for Natural Resources, and John Negroponte, American Deputy Secretary of State. 1169 1 Climate Code Red 1 Climate Code Red: The Case for Emergency Action is a 2008 book which presents scientific evidence that the global warming crisis is worse than official reports and national governments have so far indicated. 1170 1 Climate Code Red 1 "The book argues that we are facing a ""sustainability emergency"" that requires a clear break from business-as-usual politics." 1171 1 Climate Code Red 1 The authors explain that emergency action to address climate change is not so much a radical idea as an indispensable course we must embark upon. 1172 1 Climate Code Red 1 "Climate Code Red"" draws heavily on the work of a large number of climate scientists, including James E. Hansen." 1173 1 Climate Code Red 2 "The key themes of ""Climate Code Red"" are:" 1174 1 Climate Code Red 3 Co-author David Spratt is a Melbourne businessman, climate-policy analyst, and co-founder of the Carbon Equity network, and director of the Breakthrough - National Centre for Climate Restoration. 1175 1 Climate Code Red 3 Co-author Philip Sutton is convener of the Greenleap Strategic Institute and Assistant Convenor of the Climate Emergency Network. 1176 1 Climate Code Red 4 The book was launched by the Governor of Victoria, Professor David de Kretser in Parliament House in Melbourne, Victoria, on July 17, 2008. 1177 1 Atmospheric methane 1 Atmospheric methane is the methane present in Earth's atmosphere. 1178 1 Atmospheric methane 1 Atmospheric methane concentrations are of interest because it is one of the most potent greenhouse gases in Earth's atmosphere. 1179 1 Atmospheric methane 1 Atmospheric methane is rising. 1180 1 Atmospheric methane 2 The 20-year global warming potential of methane is 84. 1181 1 Atmospheric methane 2 That is, over a 20-year period, it traps 84 times more heat per mass unit than carbon dioxide and 32 times the effect when accounting for aerosol interactions. 1182 1 Atmospheric methane 2 Global methane concentrations rose from 722 parts per billion (ppb) in pre-industrial times to 1866 ppb by 2019, an increase by a factor of 2.5 and the highest value in at least 800,000 years. 1183 1 Atmospheric methane 2 Its concentration is higher in the Northern Hemisphere since most sources (both natural and human) are located on land and the Northern Hemisphere has more land mass. 1184 1 Atmospheric methane 2 The concentrations vary seasonally, with, for example, a minimum in the northern tropics during April−May mainly due to removal by the hydroxyl radical. 1185 1 Atmospheric methane 3 Early in the Earth's history carbon dioxide and methane likely produced a greenhouse effect. 1186 1 Atmospheric methane 3 The carbon dioxide would have been produced by volcanoes and the methane by early microbes. 1187 1 Atmospheric methane 3 During this time, Earth's earliest life appeared. 1188 1 Atmospheric methane 3 These first, ancient bacteria added to the methane concentration by converting hydrogen and carbon dioxide into methane and water. 1189 1 Atmospheric methane 3 Oxygen did not become a major part of the atmosphere until photosynthetic organisms evolved later in Earth's history. 1190 1 Atmospheric methane 3 With no oxygen, methane stayed in the atmosphere longer and at higher concentrations than it does today. 1191 1 Atmospheric methane 4 The known sources of methane are predominantly located near the Earth's surface. 1192 1 Atmospheric methane 4 In combination with vertical atmospheric motions and methane's relatively long lifetime, methane is considered to be a well-mixed gas. 1193 1 Atmospheric methane 4 In other words, the concentration of methane is taken to be constant with respect to height within the troposphere. 1194 1 Atmospheric methane 4 The dominant sink of methane in the troposphere is reaction with hydroxyl radicals that are formed by reaction of singlet oxygen atoms with water vapor. 1195 1 Atmospheric methane 4 Methane is also present in the stratosphere, where methane's concentration decreases with height. 1196 1 Atmospheric methane 5 Methane in the Earth's atmosphere is a strong greenhouse gas with a global warming potential (GWP) 104 times greater than CO in a 20-year time frame; methane is not as persistent a gas as CO and tails off to about GWP of 28 for a 100-year time frame. 1197 1 Atmospheric methane 5 This means that a methane emission will have 28 times the impact on temperature of a carbon dioxide emission of the same mass over the following 100 years. 1198 1 Atmospheric methane 5 Methane has a large effect but for a relatively brief period, having an estimated lifetime of 9.1 years in the atmosphere, whereas carbon dioxide has a small effect for a long period, having an estimated lifetime of over 100 years. 1199 1 Atmospheric methane 6 The globally averaged concentration of methane in Earth's atmosphere increased by about 150 percent from 722 ± 25 ppb in 1750 to 1803.2 ± 1.2 ppb in 2011. 1200 1 Atmospheric methane 6 As of 2011, methane contributed radiative forcing of 0.48 ± 0.05 Wm , or about 17% of the total radiative forcing from all of the long-lived and globally mixed greenhouse gases. 1201 1 Atmospheric methane 6 According to NOAA, the atmospheric methane concentration has continued to increase since 2011 to an average global concentration of 1850.5 ppb as of July 2018. 1202 1 Atmospheric methane 6 The May 2018 peak was 1854.8 ppb, while the May 2019 peak was 1862.8 ppb, a .3% increase. 1203 1 Atmospheric methane 8 The balance between sources and sinks of methane is not yet fully understood. 1204 1 Atmospheric methane 8 "The IPCC Working Group I stated in chapter 2 of the Fourth Assessment Report that there are ""large uncertainties in the current bottom-up estimates of components of the global source"", and the balance between sources and sinks is not yet well known." 1205 1 Atmospheric methane 8 The most important sink in the methane cycle is reaction with the hydroxyl radical, which is produced photochemically in the atmosphere. 1206 1 Atmospheric methane 8 Production of this radical is not fully understood and has a large effect on atmospheric concentrations. 1207 1 Atmospheric methane 8 This uncertainty is exemplified by observations that have shown between the year 2000 and 2006 increases in atmospheric concentration of methane ceased, for reasons still being investigated. 1208 1 Atmospheric methane 9 Various sources give the following values for methane emissions: 1209 1 Atmospheric methane 10 "Any process that results in the production of methane and its release into the atmosphere can be considered a ""source." 1210 1 Atmospheric methane 10 The two main processes that are responsible for methane production occur as a result of microorganisms anaerobically converting organic compounds into methane. 1211 1 Atmospheric methane 11 Most ecological emissions of methane relate directly to methanogens generating methane in warm, moist soils as well as in the digestive tracts of certain animals. 1212 1 Atmospheric methane 11 Methanogens are methane producing microorganisms. 1213 1 Atmospheric methane 11 In order to produce energy, they use an anaerobic process called methanogenesis. 1214 1 Atmospheric methane 11 This process is used in lieu of aerobic, or with oxygen, processes because methanogens are unable to metabolise in the presence of even small concentrations of oxygen. 1215 1 Atmospheric methane 11 When acetate is broken down in methanogenesis, the result is the release of methane into the surrounding environment. 1216 1 Atmospheric methane 12 "Methanogenesis"", the scientific term for methane production, occurs primarily in anaerobic conditions because of the lack of availability of other oxidants." 1217 1 Atmospheric methane 12 In these conditions, microscopic organisms called archaea use acetate and hydrogen to break down essential resources in a process called fermentation. 1218 1 Atmospheric methane 13 "Acetoclastic methanogenesis"" – certain archaea cleave acetate produced during anaerobic fermentation to yield methane and carbon dioxide." 1219 1 Atmospheric methane 14 "Hydrogenotrophic methanogenesis"" – archaea oxidize hydrogen with carbon dioxide to yield methane and water." 1220 1 Atmospheric methane 15 While acetoclastic methanogenesis and hydrogenotrophic methanogenesis are the two major source reactions for atmospheric methane, other minor biological methane source reactions also occur. 1221 1 Atmospheric methane 15 For example, it has been discovered that leaf surface wax exposed to UV radiation in the presence of oxygen is an aerobic source of methane. 1222 1 Atmospheric methane 16 Wetlands account for approximately 20 percent of atmospheric methane through emissions from soils and plants. 1223 1 Atmospheric methane 16 Wetlands counteract the sinking action that normally occurs with soil because of the high water table. 1224 1 Atmospheric methane 16 The level of the water table represents the boundary between anaerobic methane production and aerobic methane consumption. 1225 1 Atmospheric methane 16 When the water table is low, the methane generated within the wetland soil has to come up through the soil and get past a deeper layer of methanotrophic bacteria, thereby reducing emission. 1226 1 Atmospheric methane 16 Methane transport by vascular plants can bypass this aerobic layer, thus increasing emission. 1227 1 Atmospheric methane 17 Ruminant animals, particularly cows and sheep, contain bacteria in their gastrointestinal systems that help to break down plant material. 1228 1 Atmospheric methane 17 "Some of these microorganisms use the acetate from the plant material to produce methane, and because these bacteria live in the stomachs and intestines of ruminants, whenever the animal ""burps"" or defecates, it emits methane as well." 1229 1 Atmospheric methane 17 Based upon a study in the Snowy Mountains region, the amount of methane emitted by one cow is equivalent to the amount of methane that around 3.4 hectares of methanotrophic bacteria can consume. 1230 1 Atmospheric methane 18 Termites also contain methanogenic microorganisms in their gut. 1231 1 Atmospheric methane 18 However, some of these microorganisms are so unique that they live nowhere else in the world except in the third gut of termites. 1232 1 Atmospheric methane 18 These microorganisms also break down biotic components to produce ethanol, as well as methane byproduct. 1233 1 Atmospheric methane 18 However, unlike ruminants who lose 20 percent of the energy from the plants they eat, termites only lose 2 percent of their energy in the process. 1234 1 Atmospheric methane 18 Thus comparatively, termites do not have to eat as much food as ruminants to obtain the same amount of energy, and give off proportionally less methane. 1235 1 Atmospheric methane 19 Living plants (e.g. 1236 1 Atmospheric methane 19 forests) have recently been identified as a potentially important source of methane, possibly being responsible for approximately 10 to 30 percent of atmospheric methane. 1237 1 Atmospheric methane 19 "A 2006 paper calculated emissions of 62–236 Tg a, and ""this newly identified source may have important implications""." 1238 1 Atmospheric methane 19 "However the authors stress """"our findings are preliminary with regard to the methane emission strength""""." 1239 1 Atmospheric methane 20 "These findings have been called into question in a 2007 paper which found """"there is no evidence for substantial aerobic methane emission by terrestrial plants, maximally 0.3% of the previously published values""""." 1240 1 Atmospheric methane 21 While the details of plant methane emissions have yet to be confirmed, plants as a significant methane source would help fill in the gaps of previous global methane budgets as well as explain large plumes of methane that have been observed over the tropics. 1241 1 Atmospheric methane 22 In wetlands, where the rate of methane production is high, plants help methane travel into the atmosphere—acting like inverted lightning rods as they direct the gas up through the soil and into the air. 1242 1 Atmospheric methane 22 They are also suspected to produce methane themselves, but because the plants would have to use aerobic conditions to produce methane, the process itself is still unidentified. 1243 1 Atmospheric methane 23 At high pressures, such as are found on the bottom of the ocean, methane forms a solid clathrate with water, known as methane hydrate. 1244 1 Atmospheric methane 23 An unknown, but possibly very large quantity of methane is trapped in this form in ocean sediments. 1245 1 Atmospheric methane 23 The release of large volumes of methane gas from such sediments into the atmosphere has been suggested as a possible cause for rapid global warming events in the Earth's distant past, such as the Paleocene–Eocene Thermal Maximum of 55 million years ago, and the Great Dying. 1246 1 Atmospheric methane 24 Theories suggest that should global warming cause them to heat up sufficiently, all of this methane gas could again be released into the atmosphere. 1247 1 Atmospheric methane 24 Since methane gas is twenty-five times stronger (for a given weight, averaged over 100 years) than as a greenhouse gas; this would immensely magnify the greenhouse effect. 1248 1 Atmospheric methane 24 However, most of this reservoir of hydrates appears isolated from changes to the surface climate, so any such release is likely to happen over geological timescales of a millennium or more. 1249 1 Atmospheric methane 25 Methane that gets frozen in permafrost – land that is frozen for several years at a time – is slowly released from bogs as the permafrost melts. 1250 1 Atmospheric methane 25 With rising global temperatures, the amount of permafrost melting and releasing methane continues to increase. 1251 1 Atmospheric methane 26 Although records of permafrost are limited, recent years (1999 to 2007) have seen record thawing of permafrost in Alaska and Siberia. 1252 1 Atmospheric methane 26 Measurements during 2006 in Siberia show that the methane released is five times greater than previously estimated. 1253 1 Atmospheric methane 26 Melting yedoma, a type of permafrost, is a significant source of atmospheric methane (about 4 Tg of CH per year). 1254 1 Atmospheric methane 27 The Woods Hole Research Center, citing two 2015 studies on permafrost carbon says there may be a self-reinforcing tipping point where an estimated equivalent of 205 gigatons of carbon dioxide in the form of methane could cause up to 0.5 °C (up to 0.9 °F) warming by the end of the century, which would trigger more warming. 1255 1 Atmospheric methane 27 Permafrost contains almost twice as much carbon as is present in the atmosphere. 1256 1 Atmospheric methane 27 The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change does not adequately account for arctic methane in permafrost. 1257 1 Atmospheric methane 28 Slightly over half of the total emission is due to human activity. 1258 1 Atmospheric methane 28 Since the Industrial Revolution humans have had a major impact on concentrations of atmospheric methane, increasing atmospheric concentrations roughly 250%. 1259 1 Atmospheric methane 29 Conversion of forests and natural environments into agricultural plots increases the amount of nitrogen in the soil, which inhibits methane oxidation, weakening the ability of the methanotrophic bacteria in the soil to act as sinks. 1260 1 Atmospheric methane 29 Additionally, by changing the level of the water table, humans can directly affect the soil's ability to act as a source or sink. 1261 1 Atmospheric methane 29 The relationship between water table levels and methane emission is explained in the wetlands section of natural sources. 1262 1 Atmospheric methane 30 A 2006 UN FAO report reported that livestock generate more greenhouse gases as measured in CO equivalents than the entire transportation sector. 1263 1 Atmospheric methane 30 Livestock accounts for 9 percent of anthropogenic CO, 65 percent of anthropogenic nitrous oxide and 37 percent of anthropogenic methane. 1264 1 Atmospheric methane 30 "A senior UN official and co-author of the report, Henning Steinfeld, said ""Livestock are one of the most significant contributors to today's most serious environmental problems." 1265 1 Atmospheric methane 31 Recent NASA research has confirmed the vital role of enteric fermentation in livestock on global warming. 1266 1 Atmospheric methane 31 "We understand that other greenhouse gases apart from carbon dioxide are important for climate change today,"" said Gavin Schmidt, the lead author of the study and a researcher at NASA's Goddard Institute for Space Studies in New York, NY and Columbia University's Center for Climate Systems Research." 1267 1 Atmospheric methane 31 "Other recent peer reviewed NASA research published in the journal ""Science"" has also indicated that the contribution of methane to global warming has been underestimated." 1268 1 Atmospheric methane 32 "Nicholas Stern, the author of the 2006 Stern Review on climate change has stated ""people will need to turn vegetarian if the world is to conquer climate change""." 1269 1 Atmospheric methane 32 "President of the National Academy of Sciences Ralph Cicerone (an atmospheric scientist), has indicated the contribution of methane by livestock flatulence and eructation to global warming is a ""serious topic." 1270 1 Atmospheric methane 32 "Cicerone states ""Methane is the second-most-important greenhouse gas in the atmosphere now." 1271 1 Atmospheric methane 32 The population of beef cattle and dairy cattle has grown so much that methane from cows now is big. 1272 1 Atmospheric methane 32 This is not a trivial issue. 1273 1 Atmospheric methane 33 Approximately 5% of the methane is released via the flatus, whereas the other 95% is released via eructation. 1274 1 Atmospheric methane 33 Vaccines are under development to reduce the amount introduced through eructation. 1275 1 Atmospheric methane 34 Due to a continuously growing world population, rice agriculture has become one of the most significant anthropogenic sources of methane. 1276 1 Atmospheric methane 34 With warm weather and water-logged soil, rice paddies act like wetlands, but are generated by humans for the purpose of food production. 1277 1 Atmospheric methane 34 Due to the swamp-like environment of rice fields, these paddies yield 50–100 million metric tons of methane emission each year. 1278 1 Atmospheric methane 34 This means that rice agriculture is responsible for approximately 15 to 20 percent of anthropogenic methane emissions. 1279 1 Atmospheric methane 34 An article written by William F. Ruddiman explores the possibility that methane emissions began to rise as a result of anthropogenic activity 5000 years ago when ancient cultures started to settle and use agriculture, rice irrigation in particular, as a primary food source. 1280 1 Atmospheric methane 35 Due to the large collections of organic matter and availability of anaerobic conditions, landfills are the third largest source of atmospheric methane in the United States, accounting for roughly 18.2% of methane emissions globally in 2014. 1281 1 Atmospheric methane 35 When waste is first added to a landfill, oxygen is abundant and thus undergoes aerobic decomposition; during which time very little methane is produced. 1282 1 Atmospheric methane 35 However, generally within a year oxygen levels are depleted and anaerobic conditions dominate the landfill allowing methanogens to takeover the decomposition process. 1283 1 Atmospheric methane 35 These methanogens emit methane into the atmosphere and even after the landfill is closed, the mass amount of decaying matter allows the methanogens to continue producing methane for years. 1284 1 Atmospheric methane 36 Waste water treatment facilities act to remove organic matter, solids, pathogens, and chemical hazards as a result of human contamination. 1285 1 Atmospheric methane 36 Methane emission in waste treatment facilities occurs as a result of anaerobic treatments of organic compounds and anaerobic biodegradation of sludge. 1286 1 Atmospheric methane 37 Incomplete burning of both living and dead organic matter results in the emission of methane. 1287 1 Atmospheric methane 37 While natural wildfires can contribute to methane emissions, the bulk majority of biomass burning occurs as a result of humans – including everything from accidental burnings by civilians to deliberate burnings used to clear out land to biomass burnings occurring as a result of destroying waste. 1288 1 Atmospheric methane 38 Methane is a primary component of natural gas, and thus during the production, processing, storage, transmission, and distribution of natural gas, a significant amount of methane is lost into the atmosphere. 1289 1 Atmospheric methane 39 "According to the EPA ""Inventory of U.S Greenhouse Gas Emissions and Sinks: 1990–2015"" report, 2015 methane emissions from natural gas and petroleum systems totaled 8.1 Tg per year in the United States." 1290 1 Atmospheric methane 39 Individually, the EPA estimates that the natural gas system emitted 6.5 Tg per year of methane while petroleum systems emitted 1.6 Tg per year of methane. 1291 1 Atmospheric methane 39 Methane emissions occur in all sectors of the natural gas industry, from drilling and production, through gathering and processing and transmission, to distribution. 1292 1 Atmospheric methane 39 These emissions occur through normal operation, routine maintenance, fugitive leaks, system upsets, and venting of equipment. 1293 1 Atmospheric methane 39 In the oil industry, some underground crude contains natural gas that is entrained in the oil at high reservoir pressures. 1294 1 Atmospheric methane 39 When oil is removed from the reservoir, associated gas is produced. 1295 1 Atmospheric methane 40 "However, a review of methane emissions studies reveals that the EPA ""Inventory of"" ""Greenhouse Gas Emissions and Sinks: 1990–2015"" report likely significantly underestimated 2015 methane emissions from the oil and natural gas supply chain." 1296 1 Atmospheric methane 40 The review concluded that in 2015 the oil and natural gas supply chain emitted 13 Tg per year of methane, which is about 60% more than the EPA report for the same time period. 1297 1 Atmospheric methane 40 "The authors write that the most likely cause for the discrepancy is an under sampling by the EPA of so-called ""abnormal operating conditions"", during which large quantities of methane can be emitted." 1298 1 Atmospheric methane 40 The use of natural gas and biogas in ICE (Internal combustion engine) for such applications as electricity production / cogeneration / CHP (Combined Heat and Power) and heavy vehicles or marine vessels such as LNG carriers using the boil off gas for propulsion, emits a certain percentage of UHC, unburned hydrocarbon of which 85% is methane. 1299 1 Atmospheric methane 40 "The climate issues of using gas to fuel ICE may offset or even cancel out the advantages of less CO and particle emissions is described in this 2016 EU Issue Paper on methane slip from marine engines: ""Emissions of unburnt methane (known as the ‘methane slip’) were around 7g per kg LNG at higher engine loads, rising to 23–36g at lower loads." 1300 1 Atmospheric methane 40 "This increase could be due to slow combustion at lower temperatures, which allows small quantities of gas to avoid the combustion process""." 1301 1 Atmospheric methane 40 Road vehicles run more on low load than marine engines causing relatively higher methane slip. 1302 1 Atmospheric methane 41 In 2014 NASA researchers reported the discovery of a methane cloud floating over the Four Corners region of the south-west United States. 1303 1 Atmospheric methane 41 The discovery was based on data from the European Space Agency’s Scanning Imaging Absorption Spectrometer for Atmospheric Chartography instrument from 2002 to 2012. 1304 1 Atmospheric methane 42 "The report concluded that ""the source is likely from established gas, coal, and coalbed methane mining and processing." 1305 1 Atmospheric methane 42 The region emitted 590,000 metric tons of methane every year between 2002 and 2012—almost 3.5 times the widely used estimates in the European Union’s Emissions Database for Global Atmospheric Research. 1306 1 Atmospheric methane 43 "Any process that consumes methane from the atmosphere can be considered a ""sink"" of atmospheric methane." 1307 1 Atmospheric methane 43 The most prominent of these processes occur as a result of methane either being destroyed in the atmosphere or broken down in soil. 1308 1 Atmospheric methane 43 Humans have yet to act as any significant sink of atmospheric methane. 1309 1 Atmospheric methane 43 "Reaction with the hydroxyl radical"" – The major removal mechanism of methane from the atmosphere involves radical chemistry; it reacts with the hydroxyl radical (·OH) in the troposphere or stratosphere to create the ·CH radical and water vapor." 1310 1 Atmospheric methane 43 In addition to being the largest known sink for atmospheric methane, this reaction is one of the most important sources of water vapor in the upper atmosphere. 1311 1 Atmospheric methane 43 Following the reaction of methane with the hydroxyl radical, two dominant pathways of methane oxidation exist: [1] which leads to a net production of ozone, and [2] which causes no net ozone change. 1312 1 Atmospheric methane 43 For methane oxidation to take the pathway that leads to net ozone production, nitric oxide (NO) must be available to react with CHO·. 1313 1 Atmospheric methane 43 Otherwise, CHO· reacts with the hydroperoxyl radical (HO·), and the oxidation takes the pathway with no net ozone change. 1314 1 Atmospheric methane 43 Both oxidation pathways lead to a net production of formaldehyde and water vapor. 1315 1 Atmospheric methane 44 [1] Net production of O 1316 1 Atmospheric methane 45 CH + ·OH → CH· + HO 1317 1 Atmospheric methane 46 CH· + O + M → CHO· + M 1318 1 Atmospheric methane 47 CHO· + NO → NO + CHO· 1319 1 Atmospheric methane 48 CHO· + O → HO· + HCHO 1320 1 Atmospheric methane 49 HO· + NO → NO + ·OH 1321 1 Atmospheric methane 50 (2x) NO + hv → O(P) + NO 1322 1 Atmospheric methane 51 (2x) O(P) + O + M → O + M 1323 1 Atmospheric methane 52 [NET: CH + 4O → HCHO + 2O + HO] 1324 1 Atmospheric methane 53 [2] No net change of O 1325 1 Atmospheric methane 54 CH + ·OH → CH· + HO 1326 1 Atmospheric methane 55 CH· + O + M → CHO· + M 1327 1 Atmospheric methane 56 CHO· + HO· + M → CHOH + O + M 1328 1 Atmospheric methane 57 CHOH + hv → CHO· + ·OH 1329 1 Atmospheric methane 58 CHO· + O → HO· + HCHO 1330 1 Atmospheric methane 59 [NET: CH + O → HCHO + HO] 1331 1 Atmospheric methane 60 Note that for the second reaction, there will be a net loss of radicals in the case where CHOH is lost to wet deposition before it can undergo photolysis such that: CHOH + HO → wet deposition. 1332 1 Atmospheric methane 60 Also note that M represents a random molecule that facilitates energy transfer during the reaction 1333 1 Atmospheric methane 61 This reaction in the troposphere gives a methane lifetime of 9.6 years. 1334 1 Atmospheric methane 61 Two more minor sinks are soil sinks (160-year lifetime) and stratospheric loss by reaction with ·OH, ·Cl and ·OD in the stratosphere (120-year lifetime), giving a net lifetime of 8.4 years. 1335 1 Atmospheric methane 61 Oxidation of methane is the main source of water vapor in the upper stratosphere (beginning at pressure levels around 10 kPa). 1336 1 Atmospheric methane 62 The methyl radical formed in the above reaction will, during normal daytime conditions in the troposphere, usually react with another hydroxyl radical to form formaldehyde. 1337 1 Atmospheric methane 62 Note that this is not strictly oxidative pyrolysis as described previously. 1338 1 Atmospheric methane 62 Formaldehyde can react again with a hydroxyl radical to form carbon dioxide and more water vapor. 1339 1 Atmospheric methane 62 Sidechains in these reactions may interact with nitrogen compounds that will likely produce ozone, thus supplanting radicals required in the initial reaction. 1340 1 Atmospheric methane 63 Most natural sinks occur as a result of chemical reactions in the atmosphere as well as oxidation by methane consuming bacteria in Earth's soils. 1341 1 Atmospheric methane 64 Soils act as a major sink for atmospheric methane through the methanotrophic bacteria that reside within them. 1342 1 Atmospheric methane 64 This occurs with two different types of bacteria. 1343 1 Atmospheric methane 64 "High capacity-low affinity"" methanotrophic bacteria grow in areas of high methane concentration, such as waterlogged soils in wetlands and other moist environments." 1344 1 Atmospheric methane 64 "And in areas of low methane concentration, ""low capacity-high affinity"" methanotrophic bacteria make use of the methane in the atmosphere to grow, rather than relying on methane in their immediate environment." 1345 1 Atmospheric methane 65 Forest soils act as good sinks for atmospheric methane because soils are optimally moist for methanotroph activity, and the movement of gases between soil and atmosphere (soil diffusivity) is high. 1346 1 Atmospheric methane 65 With a lower water table, any methane in the soil has to make it past the methanotrophic bacteria before it can reach the atmosphere. 1347 1 Atmospheric methane 66 Wetland soils, however, are often sources of atmospheric methane rather than sinks because the water table is much higher, and the methane can be diffused fairly easily into the air without having to compete with the soil's methanotrophs. 1348 1 Atmospheric methane 67 "Methanotrophic bacteria in soils"" – Methanotrophic bacteria that reside within soil use methane as a source of carbon in methane oxidation." 1349 1 Atmospheric methane 67 Methane oxidation allows methanotrophic bacteria to use methane as a source of energy, reacting methane with oxygen and as a result producing carbon dioxide and water. 1350 1 Atmospheric methane 68 The most effective sink of atmospheric methane is the hydroxyl radical in the troposphere, or the lowest portion of Earth's atmosphere. 1351 1 Atmospheric methane 68 As methane rises into the air, it reacts with the hydroxyl radical to create water vapor and carbon dioxide. 1352 1 Atmospheric methane 68 The lifespan of methane in the atmosphere was estimated at 9.6 years as of 2001; however, increasing emissions of methane over time reduce the concentration of the hydroxyl radical in the atmosphere. 1353 1 Atmospheric methane 68 With less OH˚ to react with, the lifespan of methane could also increase, resulting in greater concentrations of atmospheric methane. 1354 1 Atmospheric methane 69 If it is not destroyed in the troposphere, methane will last approximately 120 years before it is eventually destroyed in Earth's next atmospheric layer: the stratosphere. 1355 1 Atmospheric methane 69 Destruction in the stratosphere occurs the same way that it does in the troposphere: methane is oxidized to produce carbon dioxide and water vapor. 1356 1 Atmospheric methane 69 Based on balloon-borne measurements since 1978, the abundance of stratospheric methane has increased by between 1978 and 2003. 1357 1 Atmospheric methane 70 The reaction of methane and chlorine atoms acts as a primary sink of Cl atoms and is a primary source of hydrochloric acid (HCl) in the stratosphere. 1358 1 Atmospheric methane 71 CH + Cl → CH + HCl 1359 1 Atmospheric methane 72 The HCl produced in this reaction leads to catalytic ozone destruction in the stratosphere. 1360 1 Atmospheric methane 73 Removal of methane in the lower troposphere may be achieved by chlorine radicals produced by iron salt aerosols. 1361 1 Atmospheric methane 73 Since the 1800s, atmospheric methane concentrations have increased annually at a rate of about 0.9%. 1362 1 Atmospheric methane 74 Long term atmospheric measurements of methane by NOAA show that the build up of methane leveled off during the decade prior to 2006, after nearly tripling since pre-industrial times. 1363 1 Atmospheric methane 74 Although scientists have yet to determine what caused this reduction in the rate of accumulation of atmospheric methane, it appears it could be due to reduced industrial emissions and drought in wetland areas. 1364 1 Atmospheric methane 75 Exceptions to this drop in growth rate occurred in 1991 and 1998 when growth rates increased suddenly to 14–15 nmol/mol per year for those years, nearly double the growth rates of the years before. 1365 1 Atmospheric methane 76 The 1991 spike is understood to be due to the volcanic eruption of Mt. 1366 1 Atmospheric methane 76 Pinatubo in June of that year. 1367 1 Atmospheric methane 76 Volcanoes affect atmospheric methane emissions when they erupt, releasing ash and sulfur dioxide into the air. 1368 1 Atmospheric methane 76 As a result, photochemistry of plants is affected and the removal of methane via the tropospheric hydroxyl radical is reduced. 1369 1 Atmospheric methane 76 However, growth rates quickly fell due to lower temperatures and global reduction in rainfall. 1370 1 Atmospheric methane 77 The cause of the 1998 spike is unresolved, but scientists are currently attributing it to a combination of increased wetland and rice field emissions as well as an increased amount of biomass burning. 1371 1 Atmospheric methane 77 1998 was also the warmest year since surface temperatures were first recorded, suggesting that anomalously high temperatures can induce elevated methane emission. 1372 1 Atmospheric methane 78 Data from 2007 suggested methane concentrations were beginning to rise again. 1373 1 Atmospheric methane 78 This was confirmed in 2010 when a study showed methane levels were on the rise for the 3 years 2007 to 2009. 1374 1 Atmospheric methane 78 "After a decade of near-zero growth in methane levels, ""globally averaged atmospheric methane increased by [approximately] 7 nmol/mol per year during 2007 and 2008." 1375 1 Atmospheric methane 78 During the first half of 2009, globally averaged atmospheric CH was [approximately] 7 nmol/mol greater than it was in 2008, suggesting that the increase will continue in 2009. 1376 1 Atmospheric methane 78 From 2015 to 2019 sharp rises in levels of atmospheric methane have been recorded. 1377 1 Atmospheric methane 79 Methane emissions levels vary greatly depending on the local geography. 1378 1 Atmospheric methane 79 For both natural and anthropogenic sources, higher temperatures and higher water levels result in the anaerobic environment that is necessary for methane production. 1379 1 Atmospheric methane 80 Emissions of methane into the atmosphere are directly related to temperature and moisture. 1380 1 Atmospheric methane 80 Thus, the natural environmental changes that occur during seasonal change act as a major control of methane emission. 1381 1 Atmospheric methane 80 Additionally, even changes in temperature during the day can affect the amount of methane that is produced and consumed. 1382 1 Atmospheric methane 81 For example, plants that produce methane can emit as much as two to four times more methane during the day than during the night. 1383 1 Atmospheric methane 81 This is directly related to the fact that plants tend to rely on solar energy to enact chemical processes. 1384 1 Atmospheric methane 82 Additionally, methane emissions are affected by the level of water sources. 1385 1 Atmospheric methane 82 Seasonal flooding during the spring and summer naturally increases the amount of methane released into the air. 1386 1 Atmospheric methane 83 The most clearly identified rise in atmospheric methane as a result of human activity occurred in the 1700s during the industrial revolution. 1387 1 Atmospheric methane 83 As technology increased at a considerable rate, humans began to build factories and plants, burn fossil fuels for energy, and clear out forests and other vegetation for the purpose of building and agriculture. 1388 1 Atmospheric methane 83 This growth continued to rise at a rate of almost 1 percent per year until around 1990 when growth rates dropped to almost zero. 1389 1 Atmospheric methane 84 A 2003 article from William F. Ruddiman, however, indicates that the anthropogenic change in methane may have started 5000 years prior to the industrial revolution. 1390 1 Atmospheric methane 84 The methane insolation cycles of the ice core remained stable and predictable until 5000 years ago, most likely due to some anthropogenic effect. 1391 1 Atmospheric methane 84 Ruddiman suggests that the transition of humans from hunter gatherers into agricultural farming was the first instance of humans affecting methane concentration in the atmosphere. 1392 1 Atmospheric methane 84 Ruddiman's hypothesis is supported by the fact that early rice irrigation occurred approximately 5000 years ago—the same time the ice core cycles lost their predictability. 1393 1 Atmospheric methane 84 Due to the inefficiency of humans first learning how to grow rice, extensive rice paddies would have been needed to feed even a small population. 1394 1 Atmospheric methane 84 These, over-flooded and filled with weeds, would have resulted in huge methane emitting wetlands. 1395 1 Atmospheric methane 85 Increases in methane levels due to modern human activities arise from a number of specific sources. 1396 1 Atmospheric methane 87 One source of methane emissions has been identified as pipelines that transport natural gas; one example is pipelines from Russia to customers in Europe. 1397 1 Atmospheric methane 87 Near Yamburg and Urengoy exist gas fields with a methane concentration of 97 percent. 1398 1 Atmospheric methane 87 The gas obtained from these fields is taken and exported to Western and Central Europe through an extensive pipeline system known as the Trans-Siberian natural gas pipeline system. 1399 1 Atmospheric methane 87 In accordance with the IPCC and other natural gas emissions control groups, measurements had to be taken throughout the pipeline to measure methane emissions from technological discharges and leaks at the pipeline fittings and vents. 1400 1 Atmospheric methane 87 Although the majority of the natural gas leaks were carbon dioxide, a significant amount of methane was also being consistently released from the pipeline as a result of leaks and breakdowns. 1401 1 Atmospheric methane 87 In 2001, natural gas emissions from the pipeline and natural gas transportation system accounted for 1 percent of the natural gas produced. 1402 1 Atmospheric methane 87 Fortunately, between 2001 and 2005, this number reduced to 0.7 percent, and even the 2001 value is still significantly less than that of 1996. 1403 1 Atmospheric methane 88 However, pipeline transportation is only one part of the problem. 1404 1 Atmospheric methane 88 "Howarth ""et al." 1405 1 Atmospheric methane 88 have argued that: We believe the preponderance of evidence indicates shale gas has a larger GHG [green house gas] footprint than conventional gas, considered over any time scale. 1406 1 Atmospheric methane 88 "The GHG footprint of shale gas also exceeds that of oil or coal when considered at decadal time scales, […] For subsequent works confirming these results see Howarth's """"A bridge to nowhere: methane emissions and the greenhouse gas footprint of natural gas,"""" """"Methane emissions and climatic warming risk from hydraulic fracturing and shale gas development: implications for policy,"""" and """"Ideas and perspectives: is shale gas a major driver of recent increase in global atmospheric methane?" 1407 1 Atmospheric methane 89 "A 2013 study by Miller ""et al." 1408 1 Atmospheric methane 89 indicates that current greenhouse gas reduction policies in the US are based on what appear to be significant underestimates of anthropogenic methane emissions. 1409 1 Atmospheric methane 89 "The authors state: We find greenhouse gas emissions from agriculture and fossil fuel extraction and processing (""i.e.,"" oil and/or natural gas) are likely a factor of two or greater than cited in existing studies." 1410 1 Atmospheric methane 90 Global warming due to fossil fuel emissions has caused Arctic methane release, i.e. 1411 1 Atmospheric methane 90 the release of methane from seas and soils in permafrost regions of the Arctic. 1412 1 Atmospheric methane 90 Although in the long term, this is a natural process, methane release is being exacerbated and accelerated by global warming. 1413 1 Atmospheric methane 90 This results in negative effects, as methane is itself a powerful greenhouse gas. 1414 1 Atmospheric methane 91 The Arctic region is one of the many natural sources of the greenhouse gas methane. 1415 1 Atmospheric methane 91 Global warming accelerates its release, due to both release of methane from existing stores, and from methanogenesis in rotting biomass. 1416 1 Atmospheric methane 91 Large quantities of methane are stored in the Arctic in natural gas deposits, permafrost, and as undersea clathrates. 1417 1 Atmospheric methane 91 Permafrost and clathrates degrade on warming, thus large releases of methane from these sources may arise as a result of global warming. 1418 1 Atmospheric methane 91 Other sources of methane include submarine taliks, river transport, ice complex retreat, submarine permafrost and decaying gas hydrate deposits. 1419 1 Atmospheric methane 92 The direct radiative greenhouse gas forcing effect has been estimated at 0.5 W/m. 1420 1 Atmospheric methane 93 Methane is a strong GHG with a global warming potential 84 times greater than CO in a 20-year time frame. 1421 1 Atmospheric methane 93 Methane is not as persistent a gas and tails off to about 28 times greater than CO for a 100-year time frame. 1422 1 Atmospheric methane 94 In addition to the direct heating effect and the normal feedbacks, the methane breaks down to carbon dioxide and water. 1423 1 Atmospheric methane 94 This water is often above the tropopause where little water usually reaches. 1424 1 Atmospheric methane 94 Ramanathan (1988) notes that both water and ice clouds, when formed at cold lower stratospheric temperatures, are extremely efficient in enhancing the atmospheric greenhouse effect. 1425 1 Atmospheric methane 94 He also notes that there is a distinct possibility that large increases in future methane may lead to a surface warming that increases nonlinearly with the methane concentration. 1426 1 Atmospheric methane 95 Methane also affects the degradation of the ozone layer, when methane is transformed into water in the stratosphere. 1427 1 Atmospheric methane 95 This process is enhanced by global warming, because warmer air holds more water vapor than colder air, so the amount of water vapor in the atmosphere increases as it is warmed by the greenhouse effect. 1428 1 Atmospheric methane 95 Climate models also indicate that greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide and methane may enhance the transport of water into the stratosphere; though this is not fully understood. 1429 1 Atmospheric methane 96 In an effort to mitigate climate change, humans have started to develop alternative methods and medicines. 1430 1 Atmospheric methane 97 For example, in order to counteract the amount of methane that ruminants give off, a type of drug called monensin (marketed as rumensin™) has been developed. 1431 1 Atmospheric methane 97 This drug is classified as an ionophore, which is an antibiotic that is naturally produced by a harmless bacteria strain. 1432 1 Atmospheric methane 97 This drug not only improves feed efficiency but also reduces the amount of methane gas emitted from the animal and its manure. 1433 1 Atmospheric methane 98 In addition to medicine, specific manure management techniques have been developed to counteract emissions from livestock manure. 1434 1 Atmospheric methane 98 Educational resources have begun to be provided for small farms. 1435 1 Atmospheric methane 98 Management techniques include daily pickup and storage of manure in a completely closed off storage facility that will prevent runoff from making it into bodies of water. 1436 1 Atmospheric methane 98 The manure can then be kept in storage until it is either reused for fertilizer or taken away and stored in an offsite compost. 1437 1 Atmospheric methane 98 Nutrient levels of various animal manures are provided for optimal use as compost for gardens and agriculture. 1438 1 Atmospheric methane 99 In order to reduce effects on methane oxidation in soil, several steps can be taken. 1439 1 Atmospheric methane 99 Controlling the usage of nitrogen enhancing fertilizer and reducing the amount of nitrogen pollution into the air can both lower inhibition of methane oxidation. 1440 1 Atmospheric methane 99 Additionally, using drier growing conditions for crops such as rice and selecting strains of crops that produce more food per unit area can reduce the amount of land with ideal conditions for methanogenesis. 1441 1 Atmospheric methane 99 Careful selection of areas of land conversion (for example, plowing down forests to create agricultural fields) can also reduce the destruction of major areas of methane oxidation. 1442 1 Atmospheric methane 100 "To counteract methane emissions from landfills, on March 12, 1996, the EPA (Environmental Protection Agency) added the ""Landfill Rule"" to the Clean Air Act." 1443 1 Atmospheric methane 100 This rule requires large landfills that have ever accepted municipal solid waste, have been used as of November 8, 1987, can hold at least 2.5 million metric tons of waste with a volume greater than 2.5 million cubic meters, and/or have nonmethane organic compound (NMOC) emissions of at least 50 metric tons per year to collect and combust emitted landfill gas. 1444 1 Atmospheric methane 100 This set of requirements excludes 96% of the landfills in the USA. 1445 1 Atmospheric methane 100 While the direct result of this is landfills reducing emission of non-methane compounds that form smog, the indirect result is reduction of methane emissions as well. 1446 1 Atmospheric methane 101 Furthermore, in an attempt to absorb the methane that is already being produced from landfills, experiments in which nutrients were added to the soil to allow methanotrophs to thrive have been conducted. 1447 1 Atmospheric methane 101 These nutrient supplemented landfills have been shown to act as a small scale methane sink, allowing the abundance of methanotrophs to sponge the methane from the air to use as energy, effectively reducing the landfill's emissions. 1448 1 Atmospheric methane 102 To reduce emissions from the natural gas industries, the EPA developed the Natural Gas STAR Program, also known as Gas STAR. 1449 1 Atmospheric methane 103 Another program was also developed by the EPA to reduce emissions from coal mining. 1450 1 Atmospheric methane 103 The Coalbed Methane Outreach Program (CMOP) helps and encourages the mining industry to find ways to use or sell methane that would otherwise be released from the coal mine into the atmosphere. 1451 1 Atmospheric methane 104 A portable methane detector has been developed which, mounted in a vehicle, can detect excess levels of methane in the ambient atmosphere and differentiate between natural methane from rotting vegetation or manure and gas leaks. 1452 1 Atmospheric methane 104 As of 2013 the technology was being deployed by Pacific Gas & Electric. 1453 1 Atmospheric methane 105 Methane is typically measured using gas chromatography. 1454 1 Atmospheric methane 105 Gas chromatography is a type of chromatography used for separating or analyzing chemical compounds. 1455 1 Atmospheric methane 105 It is less expensive in general, compared to more advanced methods, but it is more time and labor-intensive. 1456 1 Atmospheric methane 106 Spectroscopic methods are the preferred method for atmospheric gas measurements due to its sensitivity and precision. 1457 1 Atmospheric methane 106 Also, spectroscopic methods are the only way of remotely sensing the atmospheric gases. 1458 1 Atmospheric methane 106 Infrared spectroscopy covers a large spectrum of techniques, one of which detects gases based on absorption spectroscopy. 1459 1 Atmospheric methane 106 There are various methods for spectroscopic methods, including Differential optical absorption spectroscopy, Laser-induced fluorescence, and Fourier Transform Infrared. 1460 1 Atmospheric methane 107 Cavity ring-down spectroscopy is most widely used IR absorption technique of detecting methane. 1461 1 Atmospheric methane 107 It is a form of laser absorption spectroscopy which determines the mole fraction to the order of parts per trillion. 1462 1 Environmental issue 1 Environmental issues are harmful effects of human activity on the biophysical environment. 1463 1 Environmental issue 1 Environmental protection is a practice of protecting the natural environment on individual, organizational or governmental levels, for the benefit of both the environment and humans. 1464 1 Environmental issue 1 Environmentalism, a social and environmental movement, addresses environmental issues through advocacy, education and activism. 1465 1 Environmental issue 2 "The carbon dioxide equivalent of greenhouse gases (GHG) in the atmosphere has already exceeded 400 parts per million (NOAA) (with total ""long-term"" GHG exceeding 455 parts per million) (Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Report)." 1466 1 Environmental issue 2 The amount of greenhouse gas in the atmosphere is possibly above the threshold that can potentially cause climate change. 1467 1 Environmental issue 2 "The UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) has stated ""Climate change is not just a distant future threat." 1468 1 Environmental issue 2 It is the main driver behind rising humanitarian needs and we are seeing its impact. 1469 1 Environmental issue 2 The number of people affected and the damages inflicted by extreme weather has been unprecedented. 1470 1 Environmental issue 2 Further, OCHA has stated:Climate disasters are on the rise. 1471 1 Environmental issue 2 Around 70 percent of disasters are now climate related – up from around 50 percent from two decades ago. 1472 1 Environmental issue 2 These disasters take a heavier human toll and come with a higher price tag. 1473 1 Environmental issue 2 In the last decade, 2.4 billion people were affected by climate related disasters, compared to 1.7 billion in the previous decade. 1474 1 Environmental issue 2 The cost of responding to disasters has risen tenfold between 1992 and 2008.Destructive sudden heavy rains, intense tropical storms, repeated flooding and droughts are likely to increase, as will the vulnerability of local communities in the absence of strong concerted action.Environment destruction caused by humans is a global problem, and this is a problem that is on going every day. 1475 1 Environmental issue 2 By year 2050, the global human population is expected to grow by 2 billion people, thereby reaching a level of 9.6 billion people (Living Blue Planet 24). 1476 1 Environmental issue 2 The human effects on Earth can be seen in many different ways. 1477 1 Environmental issue 2 A main one is the temperature rise, and according to the report ”Our Changing Climate”, the global warming that has been going on for the past 50 years is primarily due to human activities (Walsh, et al. 1478 1 Environmental issue 2 20). 1479 1 Environmental issue 2 Since 1895, the U.S. average temperature has increased from 1.3 °F to 1.9 °F, with most of the increase taken place since around year 1970 (Walsh, et al. 1480 1 Environmental issue 2 20). 1481 1 Environmental issue 3 Major current environmental issues may include climate change, pollution, environmental degradation, and resource depletion etc. 1482 1 Environmental issue 3 The conservation movement lobbies for protection of endangered species and protection of any ecologically valuable natural areas, genetically modified foods and global warming. 1483 1 Environmental issue 4 The level of understanding of Earth has increased markedly in recent times through science especially with the application of the scientific method. 1484 1 Environmental issue 4 Environmental science is now a multi-disciplinary academic study taught and researched at many universities. 1485 1 Environmental issue 4 This is used as a basis for addressing environmental issues. 1486 1 Environmental issue 5 Large amounts of data have been gathered and these are collated into reports, of which a common type is the State of the Environment publications. 1487 1 Environmental issue 5 A recent major report was the Millennium Ecosystem Assessment, with input from 1200 scientists and released in 2005, which showed the high level of impact that humans are having on ecosystem services. 1488 1 Environmental issue 6 Environmental issues are addressed at a regional, national or international level by government organizations. 1489 1 Environmental issue 7 The largest international agency, set up in 1972, is the United Nations Environment Programme. 1490 1 Environmental issue 7 The International Union for Conservation of Nature brings together 83 states, 108 government agencies, 766 Non-governmental organizations and 81 international organizations and about 10,000 experts and scientists from countries around the world. 1491 1 Environmental issue 7 International non-governmental organizations include Greenpeace, Friends of the Earth and World Wide Fund for Nature. 1492 1 Environmental issue 7 Governments enact environmental policy and enforce environmental law and this is done to differing degrees around the world. 1493 1 Environmental issue 8 Sustainability is the key to prevent or reduce the effect of environmental issues. 1494 1 Environmental issue 8 There is now clear scientific evidence that humanity is living unsustainably, and that an unprecedented collective effort is needed to return human use of natural resources to within sustainable limits. 1495 1 Environmental issue 8 For humans to live sustainably, the Earth's natural resources must be used at a rate at which they can be replenished (and by limiting global warming). 1496 1 Environmental issue 9 Concerns for the environment have prompted the formation of green parties, political parties that seek to address environmental issues. 1497 1 Environmental issue 9 Initially these were formed in Australia, New Zealand and Germany but are now present in many other countries. 1498 1 Environmental issue 10 There are an increasing number of films being produced on environmental issues, especially on climate change and global warming. 1499 1 Environmental issue 10 "Al Gore's 2006 film ""An Inconvenient Truth"" gained commercial success and a high media profile." 1500 1 Environmental issue 11 Issues 1501 1 Environmental issue 12 Specific issues 1502 1 World Nuclear Industry Status Report 1 The World Nuclear Industry Status Report is a yearly report that explores the global challenges facing the nuclear power industry. 1503 1 World Nuclear Industry Status Report 1 It is produced by Mycle Schneider, an independent energy expert, and gives a detailed overview of the global nuclear industry and special analysis on key events and trends. 1504 1 World Nuclear Industry Status Report 2 In January a fully interactive visualization on nuclear power construction was launched. 1505 1 World Nuclear Industry Status Report 2 This contains information on the 754 reactors that are or have been under-construction since 1951. 1506 1 World Nuclear Industry Status Report 2 The Global Nuclear Power Database is hosted by the Bulletin of the Atomic Scientists. 1507 1 World Nuclear Industry Status Report 3 As of the middle of 2016, 31 countries were operating nuclear reactors for energy purposes. 1508 1 World Nuclear Industry Status Report 3 Nuclear power plants generated 2,441 net terawatt-hours (TWh or billion kilowatt-hours) of electricity in 2015 , a 1.3 percent increase, but still less than in 2000 and 8.2 percent below the historic peak nuclear generation in 2006. 1509 1 World Nuclear Industry Status Report 3 59 reactors are considered here as under construction, three fewer than WNISR reported a year ago, and eight less than in mid-2014. 1510 1 World Nuclear Industry Status Report 3 Eighty percent of all new-build units (47) are in Asia and Eastern Europe, of which 22 in China alone. 1511 1 World Nuclear Industry Status Report 4 Globally, the nuclear industry’s situation continued to deteriorate in 2015, except in China. 1512 1 World Nuclear Industry Status Report 4 Eight out of the ten nuclear power reactor startups in 2015 were in China. 1513 1 World Nuclear Industry Status Report 5 The latest report, written by Mycle Schneider and Antony Froggatt with contributions of four other experts from Japan, the UK and France, says that the nuclear industry was struggling with grave problems prior to the Fukushima accident, but that the impact of the accident has become increasingly visible. 1514 1 World Nuclear Industry Status Report 5 Global electricity generation from nuclear plants dropped by a historic 7 percent in 2012, adding to the record drop of 4 percent in 2011. 1515 1 World Nuclear Industry Status Report 6 The 427 operating reactors worldwide, as of 1 July 2013, are 17 lower than the peak in 2002. 1516 1 World Nuclear Industry Status Report 6 The nuclear share in the world’s power generation declined steadily from a historic peak of 17 percent in 1993 to about 10 percent in 2012. 1517 1 World Nuclear Industry Status Report 6 The report details a range of restart scenarios for Japan's nuclear reactor fleet which, as of September 2013, were all shutdown. 1518 1 World Nuclear Industry Status Report 6 Nuclear power’s share of global commercial primary energy production plunged to 4.5 percent, a level last seen in 1984. 1519 1 World Nuclear Industry Status Report 7 Besides an extensive update on nuclear economics, the report also includes an assessment of the major challenges at the Fukushima nuclear site, in particular the highly contaminated water on site. 1520 1 World Nuclear Industry Status Report 7 This water contained in the basement of reactors and in storage tanks contains 2.5 times the total amount of caesium-137 released at the Chernobyl accident. 1521 1 World Nuclear Industry Status Report 8 The report says that China, Germany and Japan, three of the world’s four largest economies, as well as India, now generate more power from renewables than from nuclear power. 1522 1 World Nuclear Industry Status Report 8 For the first time in 2012 China and India generated more power from wind alone than from nuclear plants, while in China solar electricity generation grew by 400 percent in one year. 1523 1 World Nuclear Industry Status Report 9 "According to the ""World Nuclear Industry Status Report 2012"", written by Mycle Schneider and Antony Froggatt, nuclear power accounted for 11 percent of worldwide electricity generation." 1524 1 World Nuclear Industry Status Report 9 World atomic power production dropped by a record 4.3 percent in 2011 as the global financial crisis and the Fukushima disaster in Japan prompted plant shutdowns and slowed construction of new sites. 1525 1 World Nuclear Industry Status Report 9 Seven reactors began operating in 2011 and 19 were shuttered. 1526 1 World Nuclear Industry Status Report 10 The report shows that following the Fukushima crisis in March 2011, Germany, Switzerland and Taiwan announced their withdrawal from nuclear power. 1527 1 World Nuclear Industry Status Report 10 Output was further restricted as nations suspended construction plans amid safety concerns and economic stagnation, forcing utilities to study extending lifetimes, which raises considerable safety issues. 1528 1 World Nuclear Industry Status Report 11 At least five countries, including Egypt, Italy and Kuwait, have suspended plans to build their first nuclear reactors. 1529 1 World Nuclear Industry Status Report 11 In the U.K., major companies like RWE, EON, and SSE have all abandoned new-build proposals in 2011/12, while companies in Japan and Bulgaria have suspended construction. 1530 1 World Nuclear Industry Status Report 11 The Fukushima disaster also created certification and licensing delays. 1531 1 World Nuclear Industry Status Report 12 "The ""World Nuclear Industry Status Report 2010-2011"" is authored by Mycle Schneider, Antony Froggatt, and Steve Thomas and published by the Washington-based Worldwatch Institute." 1532 1 World Nuclear Industry Status Report 12 The foreword is written by Amory Lovins. 1533 1 World Nuclear Industry Status Report 13 According to the report, the international nuclear industry has been unable to stop the slow decline of nuclear energy. 1534 1 World Nuclear Industry Status Report 13 The world’s reactor fleet is aging quickly and not enough new units are coming online. 1535 1 World Nuclear Industry Status Report 13 As of April 1, 2011, there were 437 nuclear reactors operating in the world, which was seven fewer than in 2002. 1536 1 World Nuclear Industry Status Report 13 The Olkiluoto plant has had particular problems: 1537 1 World Nuclear Industry Status Report 13 The flagship EPR project at Olkiluoto in Finland, managed by the largest nuclear builder in the world, AREVA NP, has turned into a financial fiasco. 1538 1 World Nuclear Industry Status Report 13 The project is four years behind schedule and at least 90 percent over budget, reaching a total cost estimate of €5.7 billion ($8.3 billion) or close to €3,500 ($5,000) per kilowatt. 1539 1 World Nuclear Industry Status Report 13 The report says that the Fukushima Daiichi nuclear disaster is exacerbating many of the problems that nuclear energy is facing. 1540 1 World Nuclear Industry Status Report 13 "There is ""no obvious sign that the international nuclear industry could eventually turn empirically evident downward trend into a promising future"", and the Fukushima nuclear disaster is likely to accelerate the decline." 1541 1 World Nuclear Industry Status Report 13 With long lead times of 10 years and more, it will be difficult to maintain, let alone increase, the number of operating nuclear power plants over the next 20 years. 1542 1 World Nuclear Industry Status Report 13 Moreover, says the report, it is clear that nuclear power development cannot keep up with the pace of renewable energy commercialization. 1543 1 World Nuclear Industry Status Report 13 For the first time, in 2010 total installed nuclear power capacity in the world (375 gigawatts) fell behind aggregate installed capacity (381 GW) of three specific renewables — wind turbines (193 GW), biomass and waste-to-energy plants (65 GW), and solar power (43 GW). 1544 1 World Nuclear Industry Status Report 14 "The ""World Nuclear Industry Status Report 2009"" presents quantitative and qualitative information on the nuclear power plants in operation, under construction and in planning phases throughout the world." 1545 1 World Nuclear Industry Status Report 14 A detailed analyses of the economic performance of past and current nuclear projects is also given. 1546 1 World Nuclear Industry Status Report 14 The report was commissioned by the German Federal Ministry of Environment, Nature Conservation and Reactor Safety. 1547 1 World Nuclear Industry Status Report 15 "The ""World Nuclear Industry Status Report 2008"" focused on the difficulties facing nuclear power throughout the world, with particular reference to Western Europe and Asia." 1548 1 World Nuclear Industry Status Report 16 "The ""World Nuclear Industry Status Report 2007"" was commissioned by the Greens-EFA Group in the European Parliament." 1549 1 World Nuclear Industry Status Report 17 "The first ""World Nuclear Industry Status Report"" was issued in 1992 in a joint publication with WISE-Paris, Greenpeace International and the World Watch Institute, Washington." 1550 1 World Nuclear Industry Status Report 17 The second report in 2004 was commissioned by the Greens-EFA Group in the European Parliament. 1551 1 Peter William Armstrong 1 Peter William Armstrong (born 1 April 1943) is a television and radio producer, whose career at the BBC spanned 25 years. 1552 1 Peter William Armstrong 1 He is best known for innovative religious programming and as the founder and project editor of the BBC's Domesday Project (1986), for which he won a Lifetime Achievement Award at the 2004 BAFTAs. 1553 1 Peter William Armstrong 1 He is the father of documentary maker Franny Armstrong. 1554 1 Peter William Armstrong 2 Armstrong earned First Class Honours in Philosophy, Politics and Economics and continued doctorate studies at Mansfield College, Oxford. 1555 1 Peter William Armstrong 3 Armstrong joined the BBC in 1971, after he was spotted by the then head of religious programming John Lang. 1556 1 Peter William Armstrong 3 "He quickly moved from radio into television, founding well-known series like ""Everyman"", Songs of Praise, and ""Global Report"", as well as writing and producing one-off series and programmes including ""The Sea of Faith"", which led to the formation of ""The Sea of Faith"" movement." 1557 1 Peter William Armstrong 4 "Armstrong was innovative in his approach to religious programming, insisting that, rather than viewing the world through the lens of faith, the programmes (""Everyman"" and ""Heart of the Matter"") would bring a journalist's eye to bear on the world's faith communities." 1558 1 Peter William Armstrong 5 Inspired by the original Domesday Book, Peter Armstrong wondered if it would be possible to harness technology to recreate the philosophy of the Domesday Book, but applied to modern Britain. 1559 1 Peter William Armstrong 5 The resulting BBC Domesday Project bought together millions of UK citizens to produce an interactive record of the nation. 1560 1 Peter William Armstrong 5 He went on to create the award-winning Interactive Television Unit, and became its chair when it floated as the MultiMedia Corporation. 1561 1 Peter William Armstrong 6 In 1995, Armstrong co-founded oneworld.net, the first internet portal devoted to global justice and development. 1562 1 Peter William Armstrong 6 Oneworld.net's central purpose was to act as a newswire for issues related to social justice – to aggregate and highlight the content of development NGOs such as Oxfam and Christian Aid. 1563 1 Peter William Armstrong 6 Oneworld joined Yahoo! 1564 1 Peter William Armstrong 6 s world news platform in 2001 alongside newswires such as AP and Reuters. 1565 1 Peter William Armstrong 6 Sarah Wright, Yahoo! 1566 1 Peter William Armstrong 6 "News Editor, said ""OneWorld journalists provide a unique and valuable resource to Yahoo by providing context for international headlines and voices from the front lines of international development." 1567 1 Peter William Armstrong 7 He also founded OneWorldTV and OneClimate, part of the OneWorld Network. 1568 1 Peter William Armstrong 8 In 2004, Armstrong received a Lifetime Achievement BAFTA at the Interactive Awards for his contributions to interactive media. 1569 1 Peter William Armstrong 8 He was the second person to win this award, after Tim Berners Lee, the inventor of the World Wide Web. 1570 1 Qori Kalis Glacier 1 The Qori Kalis Glacier is a tropical glacier located in the Cordillera Oriental section of the Andes mountains of Peru. 1571 1 Qori Kalis Glacier 1 It is one of the few tropical glaciers left in the world, and is the main outlet of the Quelccaya Ice Cap. 1572 1 Qori Kalis Glacier 2 This glacier has lost nearly half of its length since measurements began in 1963 by the Peruvian hydro-electric company Electroperú. 1573 1 Qori Kalis Glacier 2 Around 2007, the glacier had been retreating at a rate of 600 feet per year. 1574 1 Qori Kalis Glacier 3 From 1963 to 1978 it retreated at a rate of approximately 6 metres per year. 1575 1 Qori Kalis Glacier 3 Between 1991 and 2005, it has retreated at around 60 metres per year. 1576 1 Qori Kalis Glacier 3 It is the largest of all of the tongues of the Quelccaya Ice Cap, many of which are in retreat. 1577 1 Qori Kalis Glacier 4 Testing shows that the Qori Kalis Glacier advanced to its greatest length around 520 years ago and then began to retreat. 1578 1 Qori Kalis Glacier 4 It has advanced to small degrees from time to time since then. 1579 1 Qori Kalis Glacier 5 Beginning in 1991, a proglacial lake started to form where the glacier once existed. 1580 1 Qori Kalis Glacier 5 The lake is extremely deep, and is contained in a natural valley which acts as a dam. 1581 1 Qori Kalis Glacier 5 In 2004, the lake had reached a depth of 80 meters. 1582 1 Qori Kalis Glacier 6 In March 2006, a large portion of the glacier detached and fell into the lake. 1583 1 Qori Kalis Glacier 6 This resulted in a large wave of water surging into the valley below. 1584 1 Qori Kalis Glacier 6 The risk of such events are monitored because of the risk of flash flooding towns and even cities below. 1585 1 Fossil fuel divestment 1 Fossil fuel divestment or fossil fuel divestment and investment in climate solutions is an attempt to reduce climate change by exerting social, political, and economic pressure for the institutional divestment of assets including stocks, bonds, and other financial instruments connected to companies involved in extracting fossil fuels. 1586 1 Fossil fuel divestment 1 Fossil fuel divestment campaigns emerged on campuses in the United States in 2010 with students urging their administrations to turn endowment investments in the fossil fuel industry into investments in clean energy and communities most impacted by climate change. 1587 1 Fossil fuel divestment 1 By 2015, fossil fuel divestment was reportedly the fastest growing divestment movement in history. 1588 1 Fossil fuel divestment 1 By September 2019, a total of 1,100 institutions and over 58,000 individuals representing $11 trillion in assets worldwide had been divested from fossil fuels. 1589 1 Fossil fuel divestment 2 Fossil fuel divestment aims to reduce carbon emissions by accelerating the adoption of renewable energy through the stigmatisation of fossil fuel companies. 1590 1 Fossil fuel divestment 2 This includes putting public pressure on companies that are currently involved in fossil fuel extraction to invest in renewable energy. 1591 1 Fossil fuel divestment 3 The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change found that all future carbon dioxide emissions must be less than 1,000 gigatonnes to provide a 66% chance of avoiding dangerous climate change; this figure includes all sources of carbon emissions. 1592 1 Fossil fuel divestment 3 To avoid dangerous climate change, only 33% of known extractable fossil fuel of known reserves can be used; this carbon budget can also be depleted by an increase in other carbon emission sources such as deforestation and cement production. 1593 1 Fossil fuel divestment 3 It is claimed that, if other carbon emissions increase significantly, then only 10% of the fossil fuel reserves can be used to stay within projected safe limits. 1594 1 Fossil fuel divestment 4 Furthermore, according to the US Environmental Protection Agency, Earth's average temperature has risen by 1.4°F over the past century, and is predicted to rise another 2° to 11.5° over the next hundred years with continued carbon emission rates. 1595 1 Fossil fuel divestment 4 This rise in temperature would far pass the level of warming that scientists have deemed safe to support life on earth. 1596 1 Fossil fuel divestment 5 "The ""Toronto Principle"" is a fossil fuel divestment strategy, which puts into action the aims set forth at the Paris Agreement in 2015." 1597 1 Fossil fuel divestment 5 It was first coined by Benjamin A. Franta, in an article in the Harvard Crimson, as a reference to the University of Toronto’s fossil fuel divestment process. 1598 1 Fossil fuel divestment 6 "After 350.org submitted a petition for divestment on 6 March 2014, President Gertler established an ""ad hoc"" Advisory Committee on Divestment from Fossil Fuels." 1599 1 Fossil fuel divestment 6 In December 2015, the Committee released a report with several recommendations. 1600 1 Fossil fuel divestment 6 "Foremost, they argued that ""targeted and principled divestment from companies in the fossil fuels industry that meet certain criteria...should be an important part of the University of Toronto’s response to the challenges of climate change." 1601 1 Fossil fuel divestment 6 However, the report went further, and allied itself with the Paris Agreement. 1602 1 Fossil fuel divestment 6 It recommended that the university divest from companies that “blatantly disregard the international effort to limit the rise in average global temperatures to not more than one and a half degrees Celsius above pre-industrial averages by 2050...These are fossil fuels companies whose actions are irreconcilable with achieving internationally agreed goals. 1603 1 Fossil fuel divestment 7 "Franta identified this response as the Toronto Principle, which, as he argues, ""aligns rhetoric and action." 1604 1 Fossil fuel divestment 7 It suggests that it is all institutions’ responsibility to give life to the Paris agreement. 1605 1 Fossil fuel divestment 7 Harvard could adopt this Toronto principle, too, and the world would be better for it. 1606 1 Fossil fuel divestment 7 "Franta also identified how the Toronto Principle would be put into practice, which includes ""moving investments away from coal companies and coal-fired power plants, companies seeking non-conventional or aggressive fossil fuel development (such as oil from the Arctic or tar sands), and possibly also companies that distort public policies or deceive the public on climate." 1607 1 Fossil fuel divestment 7 At present, these activities are incompatible with the agreement in Paris. 1608 1 Fossil fuel divestment 7 In adhering to the Toronto Principle, Franta argues that leading institutions can use their status and power to meaningfully respond to the challenge of climate change, and act based on the goals at the Paris Agreement. 1609 1 Fossil fuel divestment 8 The Lofoten Declaration (2017) calls for curtailing hydrocarbon exploration and expansion of fossil fuel reserves. 1610 1 Fossil fuel divestment 8 It demands fossil fuel divestment and phase-out of use with a just transition to a low-carbon economy. 1611 1 Fossil fuel divestment 8 The Declaration calls for early leadership in these efforts from the economies that have benefited the most from fossil fuel extraction. 1612 1 Fossil fuel divestment 9 Stranded assets, which are known in relation to fossil fuel companies as the carbon bubble, occur when the reserves of fossil fuel companies are deemed environmentally unsustainable and so unusable and so must be written off. 1613 1 Fossil fuel divestment 9 Currently the price of fossil fuels companies' shares is calculated under the assumption that all of the companies' fossil fuel reserves will be consumed, and so the true costs of carbon dioxide in intensifying global warming is not taken into account in a company's stock market valuation. 1614 1 Fossil fuel divestment 10 In 2013 a study by HSBC found that between 40% and 60% of the market value of BP, Royal Dutch Shell and other European fossil fuel companies could be wiped out because of stranded assets caused by carbon emission regulation. 1615 1 Fossil fuel divestment 10 "Bank of England governor Mark Carney, speaking at the 2015 World Bank seminar, has stated: ""The vast majority of reserves are unburnable"" if global temperature rises are to be limited to below 2°C." 1616 1 Fossil fuel divestment 10 In 2019, Carney suggested that banks should be forced to disclose their climate-linked risks within the next two years, and said that more information would prompt investors to penalise and reward firms accordingly. 1617 1 Fossil fuel divestment 10 He warned that companies and industries that are not moving towards zero-carbon emissions could be punished by investors and go bankrupt. 1618 1 Fossil fuel divestment 11 In June 2014, the International Energy Agency released an independent analysis on the effect of carbon emissions controls. 1619 1 Fossil fuel divestment 11 This estimated that $300 billion in fossil-fuel investments would be stranded by 2035 if cuts in carbon emissions are adopted so that the global mean surface temperature increases by no more than 2°C. 1620 1 Fossil fuel divestment 12 A report by the Carbon Tracker Initiative found that between 2010 and 2015 the US coal sector had lost 76% of its value including the closure of 200 mines. 1621 1 Fossil fuel divestment 12 It found that Peabody Energy, the world's largest private coal mining company, had lost 80% of its share price over this time. 1622 1 Fossil fuel divestment 12 This was attributed to Environmental Protection Agency regulations and competition from shale gas. 1623 1 Fossil fuel divestment 13 In 2013, fossil fuel companies invested $670billion in exploration of new oil and gas resources. 1624 1 Fossil fuel divestment 14 A 2015 report studied 20 fossil fuel companies and found that, while highly profitable, the hidden economic cost to society was also large. 1625 1 Fossil fuel divestment 14 "The report spans the period 2008–2012 and notes that: ""for all companies and all years, the economic cost to society of their emissions was greater than their after‐tax profit, with the single exception of ExxonMobil in 2008." 1626 1 Fossil fuel divestment 14 "Pure coal companies fare even worse: ""the economic cost to society exceeds total revenue (employment, taxes, supply purchases, and indirect employment) in all years, with this cost varying between nearly $2 and nearly $9 per $1 of revenue." 1627 1 Fossil fuel divestment 14 The paper suggests: 1628 1 Fossil fuel divestment 14 This hidden or externalised cost is an implicit subsidy and accordingly represents a risk to those companies. 1629 1 Fossil fuel divestment 14 There is a reasonable chance that society will act to either reduce this societal cost by regulating against fossil fuel use or recover it by imposing carbon prices. 1630 1 Fossil fuel divestment 14 Investors are increasingly focused on this risk and seeking to understand and manage it. 1631 1 Fossil fuel divestment 14 Similarly, in 2014, financial analyst firm Kepler Cheuvreux projected $28 trillion in lost value for fossil fuel companies under a regulatory scenario that targets 450 parts per million of atmospheric . 1632 1 Fossil fuel divestment 15 Competition from renewable energy sources may lead to the loss of value of fossil fuel companies due to their inability to compete commercially with the renewable energy sources. 1633 1 Fossil fuel divestment 15 In some cases this has already happened. 1634 1 Fossil fuel divestment 15 Deutsche Bank predicts that 80% of the global electricity market will have reached grid parity for solar electricity generation by the end of 2017. 1635 1 Fossil fuel divestment 15 In 2012, 67% of the world's electricity generation was produced from fossil fuels. 1636 1 Fossil fuel divestment 16 Stanwell Corporation, an electricity generator owned by the Government of Queensland made a loss in 2013 from its 4,000MW of coal and gas fired generation capacity. 1637 1 Fossil fuel divestment 16 The company attributed this loss to the expansion of rooftop solar generation which reduced the price of electricity during the day; on some days the price (usually AUD$40–50/MWh) was almost zero. 1638 1 Fossil fuel divestment 16 The Australian Government and Bloomberg New Energy Finance forecast the production of energy by rooftop solar to rise sixfold between 2014 and 2024. 1639 1 Fossil fuel divestment 17 Unstable fossil fuel prices has made investment in fossil fuel extraction a more risky investment opportunity. 1640 1 Fossil fuel divestment 17 West Texas Intermediate crude oil fell in value from $107 per barrel in June 2014 to $50 per barrel in January 2015. 1641 1 Fossil fuel divestment 17 Goldman Sachs stated in January 2015 that, if oil were to stabilize at $70 per barrel, $1 trillion of planned oilfield investments would not be profitable. 1642 1 Fossil fuel divestment 18 "A study by the Smith School of Enterprise and the Environment at the University of Oxford found that the stigmatisation of fossil fuel companies caused by divestment can ""materially increase the uncertainty surrounding the future cash flows of fossil-fuel companies." 1643 1 Fossil fuel divestment 18 "That, in turn, ""can lead to a permanent compression in the trading multiples – e.g., the share price to earnings (P/E) ratio of a target company." 1644 1 Fossil fuel divestment 19 The study also says that: 1645 1 Fossil fuel divestment 19 "According to a 2013 study by the Aperio Group, the economic risks of disinvestment from fossil fuel companies in the Russell 3000 Index are ""statistically irrelevant""." 1646 1 Fossil fuel divestment 20 "In November 2014, a group of seven undergraduate, graduate, and law students filed a lawsuit at the Suffolk County Superior Court against the president and fellows of Harvard College and others for ""mismanagement of charitable funds"" and ""intentional investment in abnormally dangerous activities"" in relation to Harvard's investments in fossil-fuel companies." 1647 1 Fossil fuel divestment 20 In March 2015, the superior court granted Harvard's motion to dismiss. 1648 1 Fossil fuel divestment 20 "The superior judge wrote: ""Plaintiffs have brought their advocacy, fervent and articulate and admirable as it is, to a forum that cannot grant the relief they seek." 1649 1 Fossil fuel divestment 21 "In October 2014, Exxon Mobil stated that the fossil-fuel divestment was ""out of step with reality"" and that ""to not use fossil fuels is tantamount to not using energy at all, and that's not feasible." 1650 1 Fossil fuel divestment 22 "In March 2014, John Felmy, the chief economist of the American Petroleum Institute, stated that the movement to divest from fossil-fuel companies ""truly disgusts me"" and stated that academics and campaigners who support divestment are misinformed, uninformed or liars." 1651 1 Fossil fuel divestment 22 Felmy particularly criticized the environmentalist and author Bill McKibben. 1652 1 Fossil fuel divestment 23 The World Coal Association has pointed out that divesting from the fossil fuel industry does not necessarily result in a reduction of demand for fossil fuels, rather it would result in environmentally conscious investors losing influence over the operation of those companies. 1653 1 Fossil fuel divestment 23 In fact, coal has been the fastest growing energy source over the last decade and is an important raw material for steel and cement in developing countries. 1654 1 Fossil fuel divestment 24 "From half a dozen college campuses in 2011, calling on their administrations to divest endowments from coal and other fossil fuels and invest in clean energy and ""just transition"" strategies to empower those most impacted by environmental degradation and climate change, the campaign had spread to an estimated 50 campuses in spring 2012." 1655 1 Fossil fuel divestment 24 By September 2014, 181 institutions and 656 individuals had committed to divest over $50 billion. 1656 1 Fossil fuel divestment 24 One year later, by September 2015, the numbers had grown to 436 institutions and 2,040 individuals across 43 countries, representing $2.6 trillion in assets, of which 56% were based on the commitment of pension funds and 37% of private companies. 1657 1 Fossil fuel divestment 24 By April 2016, already 515 institutions had joined the pledge, of which 27% faith-based groups, 24% foundations, 13% governmental organisations, 13% pension funds and 12% colleges, universities and schools, representing, together with the individual investors, a total of $3.4 trillion in assets. 1658 1 Fossil fuel divestment 24 By September 2019, total divestment commitments had grown to an approximate value of $11,48 trillion. 1659 1 Fossil fuel divestment 25 The divestment campaign at the Australian National University is one of the longest running in the world and, while it has not yet achieved full fossil fuel divestment, it has had substantial wins, most notably in 2011 and 2014. 1660 1 Fossil fuel divestment 26 Fossil Free ANU formed out of the ANU Environment Collective (EC), a consensus-based and non-hierarchical group of students affiliated with the Australian Student Environment Network, when students were notified in 2011 by campaigners at the Northern Rivers, NSW that ANU was the 12th largest shareholders in the coal seam gas company Metgasco. 1661 1 Fossil fuel divestment 26 Following student protests, including an event called 'ANU Gets Fracked' that saw students erect a mock gas rig in Union Court, the ANU Council announced in October 2013 that it would divest from Metgasco, citing student concerns and the fact that the Australian Ethical Investment did not approve of them. 1662 1 Fossil fuel divestment 26 "Tom Stayner, an activist from the EC, stated in the ANU student paper Woroni that: ""He took some convincing, but the Vice Chancellor is showing leadership on this urgent issue." 1663 1 Fossil fuel divestment 27 However, student concerns were again raised in 2012 when it was revealed that the ANU had only reduced its holding in Metgasco from over 4 million shares in 2011 to 2.5 million in 2012. 1664 1 Fossil fuel divestment 27 "In 2013, Tom Swann filed a FOI request to the ANU requesting all ""documents created during 2012, which refer to the University's purchase, sale or ownership of shares in any company which generates revenue from oil, coal, gas, or uranium." 1665 1 Fossil fuel divestment 27 These documents revealed that ANU had substantial holdings in major fossil fuel companies and had been buying shares in Santos while selling shares in Metgasco. 1666 1 Fossil fuel divestment 27 "Students lobbying and public pressure led the ANU Council to implement a Socially Responsible Investment Policy (SRI) in late 2013 modelled on Stanford University, which aims to ""avoid investment opportunities considered to be likely to cause substantial social injury." 1667 1 Fossil fuel divestment 28 In 2014, students from Fossil Free ANU organised the first student-initiated referendum at the ANU and in elections in September more than 82 per cent of students voted in favour of the ANU divesting from fossil fuels in what was the highest turnout in a student election at the university in more than a decade. 1668 1 Fossil fuel divestment 28 In October 2014, the ANU Council announced that it would divest from seven companies, two of which, Santos and Oil Search, performed poorly in an independent review undertaken by the Centre for Australian Ethical Research. 1669 1 Fossil fuel divestment 28 "This decision provoked a month-long controversy with the ""Australian Financial Review"" publishing over 53 stories criticising the decision including 12 front pages attacking the ANU, with its editor-in-chief, Michael Stutchbury, prouncing the decision to be as ""disingenuous"" as banning the burqa." 1670 1 Fossil fuel divestment 28 "These attacks, which ""The Canberra Times"" editorial described as ""verging on hysterical"" was joined by members of the cabinet of the Abbott Government, with the Treasurer Joe Hockey stating that the ANU Council is ""removed from the reality of what is helping to drive the Australian economy and create more employment,"" Education Minister Christopher Pyne calling it ""bizarre"" and Prime Minister Tony Abbott calling it ""stupid." 1671 1 Fossil fuel divestment 28 "In response, Louis Klee, an activist from Fossil Free ANU, wrote in ""The Age"" that the reaction demonstrated not just ""the complicity of state power with the mining industry,"" but also that the citizens of this country are powerful voices in the debate over climate justice." 1672 1 Fossil fuel divestment 28 It demonstrates that they are, ultimately, voices speaking with growing eloquence, urgency and authority for one thing: action to address global climate change. 1673 1 Fossil fuel divestment 29 "Vice-Chancellor of ANU Ian Young stood by the decision, stating: On divestment, it is clear we were in the right and played a truly national and international leadership role... [W]e seem to have played a major role in a movement which now seems unstoppable.Meeting with students in the wake of the furore of the decision, Ian Young told activists from Fossil Free ANU that while he initially thought divestment was ""a sideshow,"" the reaction of the mining companies revealed that students ""were right all along." 1674 1 Fossil fuel divestment 30 ANU still has holdings in fossil fuel companies and Fossil Free ANU continues to campaign for ANU to 'Divest the Rest'. 1675 1 Fossil fuel divestment 31 350.org is an international environmental organization encouraging citizens to action with the belief that publicizing the increasing levels of carbon dioxide will pressure world leaders to address climate change and to reduce levels from 400 parts per million to 350 parts per million. 1676 1 Fossil fuel divestment 31 As part of its global policy, 350.org launched their Go Fossil Free: Divest from Fossil Fuels! 1677 1 Fossil fuel divestment 31 campaign in 2012, which campaign calls for colleges and universities, as well as cities, religious institutions, and pension funds to withdraw their investments from fossil fuel companies. 1678 1 Fossil fuel divestment 32 Divest-Invest Philanthropy is an international platform for institutions committed to fossil fuel divestment. 1679 1 Fossil fuel divestment 33 "In March 2015, ""The Guardian"" launched the 'Keep it in the ground' campaign encouraging the Wellcome Trust and the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation to divest from fossil fuel companies in which the foundation has a minimum of $1.4 billion invested." 1680 1 Fossil fuel divestment 33 The Wellcome Trust has £450m of investments in Shell, BHP Billiton, Rio Tinto and BP. 1681 1 Fossil fuel divestment 33 The petition had received over 140,000 signatures by the end of March 2015. 1682 1 Fossil fuel divestment 34 Fossil Free Stanford is one of the highest-profile university divestment campaigns in the U.S. 1683 1 Fossil fuel divestment 34 In May 2014, the university divested its endowment, then valued at US$18.7 billion, from holdings in coal extraction companies following a sustained campaign by undergraduate students. 1684 1 Fossil fuel divestment 34 "Author Naomi Klein called the divestment, ""the most significant victory in the youth climate movement to date." 1685 1 Fossil fuel divestment 35 The campaign maintains widespread support on the campus, exemplified in multiple all-campus referenda, including in April 2014 and April 2018, in which the student body voted 75 percent and 81 percent in favor of divestment from all fossil fuels, respectively. 1686 1 Fossil fuel divestment 35 The Stanford Undergraduate Senate and Stanford Graduate Student Council also both passed resolutions calling for full fossil fuel divestment in 2014. 1687 1 Fossil fuel divestment 35 In 2016, the student body Presidents and Vice Presidents from both the 2016-2017 school year and the 2015-2016 school year published a letter calling for the university's leadership to represent the student consensus in support of fossil fuel divestment. 1688 1 Fossil fuel divestment 36 In January 2015, a group of more than 300 Stanford faculty published a letter calling for full divestment, which garnered international attention. 1689 1 Fossil fuel divestment 36 Additional faculty signed on in the following weeks such that the total grew to 457 faculty signatories. 1690 1 Fossil fuel divestment 36 Signatories included a former president of the university, multiple department chairs, a vice provost, multiple Nobel Laureates, and members of all seven of the university's schools. 1691 1 Fossil fuel divestment 37 In November 2015, in advance of the UNFCCC COP 21 climate negotiations that resulted in the Paris Agreement, over 100 students risked arrest by staging a non-violent sit-in, surrounding the university president's office for 5 days and 4 nights. 1692 1 Fossil fuel divestment 37 The sit-in ended when the university's president, John Hennessy, agreed on the fifth day to a public meeting with the student group. 1693 1 Fossil fuel divestment 37 In response to the students' publicized plans to hold this sit-in, the university's Board of Trustees published a letter to the UNFCCC calling for bold climate action. 1694 1 Fossil fuel divestment 38 In April 2016, the university's Board announced that it would take no further divestment action related to fossil fuel divestment. 1695 1 Fossil fuel divestment 38 In response, a group of over 1000 students and Alumni pledged during the school's graduation ceremonies in June 2016 to withhold all future donations until the school achieved full divestment. 1696 1 Fossil fuel divestment 39 Divest Harvard is an organization at Harvard University that seeks to compel the university to divest from fossil fuel companies. 1697 1 Fossil fuel divestment 39 The group was founded in 2012 by students at Harvard College. 1698 1 Fossil fuel divestment 39 In November 2012, a referendum on divestment passed at Harvard College with 72% support, followed by a similar referendum at the Harvard Law School in May 2013, which passed with 67% support. 1699 1 Fossil fuel divestment 39 During this time, representatives from Divest Harvard began meeting with members of Harvard University's governing body, the Harvard Corporation, but the meetings were described as unproductive. 1700 1 Fossil fuel divestment 40 In October 2013, the Harvard Corporation formally announced that the university would not consider a policy of divestment. 1701 1 Fossil fuel divestment 40 Following this, Divest Harvard began organizing rallies, teach-ins, and debates on divestment. 1702 1 Fossil fuel divestment 40 In March 2014, students from Divest Harvard recorded an impromptu exchange on divestment with Harvard President Drew Gilpin Faust, during which Faust appeared to claim that fossil fuel companies do not block efforts to counteract climate change. 1703 1 Fossil fuel divestment 40 The video has since become a source of controversy. 1704 1 Fossil fuel divestment 41 In April 2014, a group of nearly 100 Harvard faculty released an open letter to the Harvard Corporation arguing for divestment. 1705 1 Fossil fuel divestment 41 This was followed by a 30-hour blockade of the Harvard president's office by students protesting the president's refusal to engage in a public discussion of divestment; the Harvard administration terminated the blockade by arresting one of the student protesters. 1706 1 Fossil fuel divestment 41 Following the protest, Faust said she would not hold the open forum that students and faculty had requested and would not engage with students from Divest Harvard. 1707 1 Fossil fuel divestment 41 In May 2014, a group of Harvard alumni interrupted an alumni reunion event with Faust present by standing and holding a pro-divestment banner; the alumni were removed from the event and banned from Harvard's campus. 1708 1 Fossil fuel divestment 42 In September 2014, Harvard faculty renewed their calls for an open forum on divestment and continued to argue for divestment publicly. 1709 1 Fossil fuel divestment 42 In October 2014, Divest Harvard organized a three-day fast and public outreach event to call attention to the harms of climate change. 1710 1 Fossil fuel divestment 42 In November 2014, a group of students calling themselves the Harvard Climate Justice Coalition filed a lawsuit against the Harvard Corporation to compel divestment on the grounds of Harvard's status as a non-profit organization. 1711 1 Fossil fuel divestment 42 "The lawsuit was dismissed by a Massachusetts Superior Court judge, who wrote that ""Plaintiffs have brought their advocacy, fervent and articulate and admirable as it is, to a forum that cannot grant the relief they seek." 1712 1 Fossil fuel divestment 42 The plaintiffs have stated that they plan to appeal the decision. 1713 1 Fossil fuel divestment 43 In January 2015, it was revealed that Harvard had increased its direct investments in fossil fuel companies considerably, and the number of faculty and alumni supporting divestment grew. 1714 1 Fossil fuel divestment 43 By April 2015, the faculty group calling for divestment grew to 250, the Harvard alumni club of Vermont officially voted to endorse divestment, and Divest Harvard announced the creation of a fossil-free alumni donation fund that Harvard would receive conditional on divestment. 1715 1 Fossil fuel divestment 43 In February 2015, Divest Harvard occupied the president's office for 24 hours in protest of the Harvard Corporation's continued unwillingness to engage students on the topic of divestment. 1716 1 Fossil fuel divestment 43 This was followed by an open letter from a group of prominent Harvard alumni urging the university to divest. 1717 1 Fossil fuel divestment 43 In April 2015, Divest Harvard and Harvard alumni carried out an announced week-long protest called Harvard Heat Week, which included rallies, marches, public outreach, and a continuous civil disobedience blockade of administrative buildings on campus. 1718 1 Fossil fuel divestment 43 The Harvard administration avoided engaging with the protest. 1719 1 Fossil fuel divestment 43 Following Heat Week, Divest Harvard carried out an unannounced one-day civil disobedience blockade of the Harvard president's office in protest of continued lack of action by the Harvard administration. 1720 1 Fossil fuel divestment 44 Fossil Free MIT (FFMIT) is a student organization at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology made up of MIT undergrads, graduate students, post-docs, faculty, staff and alumni. 1721 1 Fossil fuel divestment 44 "The group was formed in Fall 2012 by six MIT students following a visit to Boston by Bill McKibben of 350.org on his ""Do the Math"" tour." 1722 1 Fossil fuel divestment 44 The group has collected over 3,500 signatures in a petition calling for MIT to (1) immediately freeze new investments in fossil fuel companies, and (2) divest within five years from current holdings in these companies. 1723 1 Fossil fuel divestment 45 "Following discussions with FFMIT, the university administration initiated a ""campus-wide conversation"" on climate change to take place from November 2014 to May 2015, which included the formation of the MIT Climate Change Conversation Committee." 1724 1 Fossil fuel divestment 45 The committee, composed of 13 faculty, staff, and students, was charged with engaging the MIT community to determine how the university could address climate change and with offering recommendations. 1725 1 Fossil fuel divestment 45 The conversation included solicitation of ideas and opinions of MIT community members, as well as a number of public events. 1726 1 Fossil fuel divestment 45 The largest event was a fossil fuel divestment debate among six prominent voices on climate change that was attended by approximately 500 people. 1727 1 Fossil fuel divestment 46 The committee released a report in June 2015, recommending a number of initiatives to be undertaken by the university. 1728 1 Fossil fuel divestment 46 "In regards to fossil fuel divestment, the committee ""rejected the idea of blanket divestment from all fossil fuel companies""; although there was ""support by (three-quarter) majority of the committee for targeted divestment from companies whose operations are heavily focused on the exploration for and/or extraction of the fossil fuels that are least compatible with mitigating climate change, for example coal and tar sands." 1729 1 Fossil fuel divestment 47 Following the campus-wide conversation, on 21 October 2015, President L. Rafael Reif announced the MIT Plan for Action on Climate Change. 1730 1 Fossil fuel divestment 47 "While the plan enacted many of the committee's recommendations, the university administration chose not to divest its holdings in fossil fuel companies, stating that ""divestment...is incompatible with the strategy of engagement with industry to solve problems that is at the heart of today’s plan." 1731 1 Fossil fuel divestment 48 The following day, Fossil Free MIT began a sit-in outside the office of the President to protest the shortcomings of the plan, including the rejection of divestment. 1732 1 Fossil fuel divestment 48 Over 100 people overall participated in the sit-in, which received coverage by multiple news outlets, including the Boston Globe, Boston Magazine, and the Daily Caller. 1733 1 Fossil fuel divestment 48 The sit-in, which lasted 116 days, ended officially with an agreement with Vice President for Research Maria Zuber following negotiations about how to improve the Plan. 1734 1 Fossil fuel divestment 48 The agreement did not include divestment, but succeeded in establishing a climate advisory committee and a climate ethics forum. 1735 1 Fossil fuel divestment 48 "In addition, the administration agreed to strengthen the university's carbon mitigation commitments, striving for carbon neutrality ""as soon as possible." 1736 1 Fossil fuel divestment 49 A number of individuals and organisations have voiced support for fossil fuel divestment including: 1737 1 Fossil fuel divestment 51 "In March 2015 Mary Robinson, Ban Ki-moon's special envoy on climate change and former Irish President stated, ""it is almost a due diligence requirement to consider ending investment in dirty energy companies""." 1738 1 Fossil fuel divestment 52 Desmond Tutu has voiced support for fossil fuel divestment and compared it to divestment from South Africa in protest of apartheid. 1739 1 Fossil fuel divestment 53 In 2015, the London Assembly passed a motion calling on the Mayor of London to urgently divest pension funds from fossil fuel companies 1740 1 Fossil fuel divestment 54 A prominent speaker at the 5th annual World Pensions & Investments Forum held in December 2015, Earth Institute Director Jeffrey Sachs voiced for institutional investors to take their fiduciary responsibility in reducing the risk of losses via fossil fuel divestment. 1741 1 Fossil fuel divestment 55 In February 2015 alumni of Harvard University including Natalie Portman, Robert F. Kennedy, Jr, Darren Aronofsky and Susan Faludi wrote an open letter to Harvard University demanding that it divest its $35.9 billion endowment from coal, gas, and oil companies. 1742 1 Fossil fuel divestment 56 Harvard's decision not to divest was explained in an open letter from the University President, Drew Faust: 1743 1 Fossil fuel divestment 57 The University of Glasgow became the first university in Europe to agree to divest from fossil fuels. 1744 1 Fossil fuel divestment 57 The NSA whistle-blower Edward Snowden commented: 1745 1 Fossil fuel divestment 58 For list of fossil fuel companies that divestment campaigns target, see List of oil exploration and production companies. 1746 1 Fossil fuel divestment 59 Governments and pension funds in the United States that have partially or completely divested, or that have taken steps toward divestment, include (listed alphabetically): 1747 1 Fossil fuel divestment 60 Colleges and universities which have partially or completely divested, or which have taken steps toward divestment, include (listed alphabetically): 1748 1 Fossil fuel divestment 62 In September 2014, the Rockefeller Brothers Fund announced it would be divesting its fossil fuel investments totalling $60 million. 1749 1 Fossil fuel divestment 62 We are quite convinced that if he were alive today, as an astute businessman looking out to the future, he would be moving out of fossil fuels and investing in clean, renewable energy. 1750 1 Fossil fuel divestment 62 The 2013 general synod of the United Church of Christ (UCC) passed a resolution (sponsored by the Massachusetts Conference and ten other conferences of the UCC) outlining a path to divestment of church funds from fossil-fuel holdings. 1751 1 Fossil fuel divestment 62 Under the resolution, a plan for divestment will be developed by June 2018. 1752 1 Fossil fuel divestment 62 The original proposal considered by the general synod called for a five-year plan to divestment; this was changed following negotiations between divestment proponents and the UCC's investment arm, United Church Funds. 1753 1 Fossil fuel divestment 62 United Church Funds also established a denominational fossil-free fund (believed to be the first of its kind), which raised almost $16 million from UCC congregations, conferences, and other groups by late September 2014. 1754 1 Fossil fuel divestment 63 In June 2014, the trustees of Union Theological Seminary in New York City unanimously voted to begin divesting fossil fuels from the seminary's $108.4 million endowment. 1755 1 Fossil fuel divestment 64 On 30 April 2015, the Church of England agreed to divest £12million from its tar sands oil and thermal coal holdings. 1756 1 Fossil fuel divestment 64 The church has a £9billion investment fund. 1757 1 Fossil fuel divestment 66 Ireland is to be the world's first country to divest public money from fossil fuels. 1758 1 Fossil fuel divestment 66 Other sources. 1759 1 Freshwater acidification 1 Freshwater becomes acidic when acid inputs surpass the quantity of bases produced in the reservoir through weathering of rocks, or by the reduction of acid anions, like sulfate and nitrate within the lake. 1760 1 Freshwater acidification 1 The main reason for Freshwater acidification is atmospheric depositions and soil leaching of SO and NOx. In an acid-sensitive ecosystem, which includes slow-weathering bedrock and depleted base cation pools, SO and NO from runoff will be accompanied by acidifying hydrogen ions and inorganic aluminum, which can be toxic to marine organisms. 1761 1 Freshwater acidification 1 Acid rain is also a contributor to freshwater acidification, however acid rain is formed when SO and NO react with water, oxygen and oxidants within the clouds. 1762 1 Freshwater acidification 1 In addition to SO and NO the buffering capacity of soils and bedrocks within the freshwater ecosystem can contribute to the acidity of the water. 1763 1 Freshwater acidification 1 Each freshwater reservoir has a capacity to buffer acids. 1764 1 Freshwater acidification 1 However, with excess input of acids into the reservoir, the buffering capacity will essentially “run out” and the water will eventually become more acidic. 1765 1 Freshwater acidification 1 Increase in atmospheric CO affects freshwater acidity very similarly to the way rising CO affects ocean ecosystems. 1766 1 Freshwater acidification 1 However, because of the various carbon fluxes in freshwater ecosystems, it is difficult to quantify the effects of anthropogenic CO. 1767 1 Freshwater acidification 1 Finally, rising freshwater acidification is harmful to various aquatic organisms. 1768 1 Freshwater acidification 2 The ocean and the atmosphere are constantly exchanging massive amounts of CO. Over the last 800 000 years, the concentration of CO in the atmosphere remained around 172-300 parts per million by volume (ppmv). 1769 1 Freshwater acidification 2 However, with recent anthropogenic CO emissions, this number has increased to 387 ppmv in 2009. 1770 1 Freshwater acidification 2 From 2000-2008, 26% of anthropogenic CO was absorbed by the ocean. 1771 1 Freshwater acidification 2 Although ocean acidification is also caused by other chemical additions and removals, CO is the primary factor affecting pH. 1772 1 Freshwater acidification 2 Once CO is dissolved in seawater, it becomes a weak acid that primarily affects carbonate chemistry. 1773 1 Freshwater acidification 2 Dissolved CO increases the concentration of bicarbonate ions (HCO), dissolved inorganic carbon (C) and lowers the pH. 1774 1 Freshwater acidification 2 Freshwater also absorbs atmospheric CO, which can also lower the pH. 1775 1 Freshwater acidification 2 In addition to CO, freshwater reservoir's pH values are altered by acid rain, nutrient runoff, and other anthropogenic pollutants. 1776 1 Freshwater acidification 2 Freshwater uptakes CO in the same mechanism as seawater, however, freshwater alkalinity is much lower than seawater, due to the absence of a salt-buffer. 1777 1 Freshwater acidification 2 Due to the lack of salt-buffer, pH changes in freshwater tend to be much greater than ocean water, due to newly released H ions not being buffered by as many bicarbonate (HCO) ions as ocean water. 1778 1 Freshwater acidification 2 Therefore, the freshwater biota tends to have a higher evolutionary pH tolerance than seawater biota. 1779 1 Freshwater acidification 3 The accelerated burning of fossil fuels within the past century has largely contributed to the acidification of freshwater ecosystems. 1780 1 Freshwater acidification 3 In the 1970's, the sulfate emissions levels peaked, with nitrogen following behind 10 years later. 1781 1 Freshwater acidification 3 The main contributors to freshwater acidification are SO and NO Increases in sulfate concentration in runoff, due to increased acidity inputs, is coupled with an increase in base cation run-off and bicarbonate decrease, creating the acidifying effect seen in freshwater ecosystems. 1782 1 Freshwater acidification 3 In a natural state, most nitrogen inputted into freshwater ecosystems will be utilized by vegetation. 1783 1 Freshwater acidification 3 However, in excess amounts, all of the nitrogen is unable to be utilized by vegetation, and excess nitrogen is found as nitrate in the water’s runoff. 1784 1 Freshwater acidification 3 Nitrate will contribute to acidification in the same manner as sulfate. 1785 1 Freshwater acidification 4 In addition to SO and NO, low buffering capacities of ecosystems can also lead to freshwater acidity. 1786 1 Freshwater acidification 4 For example, Atlantic Canada has the lowest acid deposition rates in Eastern North America, with the most acidic waters on the continent. 1787 1 Freshwater acidification 4 This is due to the low buffering of the regional bedrock and the addition of natural organic acids produced by close-by wetlands. 1788 1 Freshwater acidification 4 Specifically, in Southwestern and Eastern Nova Scotia, there is a combination of high organic acidity, poor buffering, and high acid deposition to produce a very low surface water pH and acid neutralization capacity (ANC) values. 1789 1 Freshwater acidification 4 In most of the Atlantic region, granite and shale bedrock are found, which contain very little buffering material. 1790 1 Freshwater acidification 4 Soil formed from low-buffering materials and the waters that drain from them are, therefore, susceptible to acidification, even under low acid deposition. 1791 1 Freshwater acidification 5 In oceans, CO in the atmosphere can dissolve into the water’s surface, and forms carbonic acid. 1792 1 Freshwater acidification 5 The total inorganic carbon in freshwater involves free CO (or HCO), HCO and carbonate (CO). 1793 1 Freshwater acidification 5 The percentage of all these constituents is also dependent on the pH of the body of water. 1794 1 Freshwater acidification 5 When water is acidic it will primarily contain CO. 1795 1 Freshwater acidification 5 It is often difficult to quantify the effects of pCO levels in freshwater due to the various sources of carbon dioxide freshwater ecosystems receive. 1796 1 Freshwater acidification 5 Factors such as nearby ecosystem, agriculture, land use, watershed, lake size, precipitation, soil type and rocks all determine the amount of CO absorbed. 1797 1 Freshwater acidification 5 However, there has been a clear increase in pCO in freshwater ecosystems in the last century due to anthropogenic influence. 1798 1 Freshwater acidification 5 As the vegetation near freshwater ecosystems grow larger and multiply, due to the excess pCO feeding these plants, the carbon available at death and during decomposition increases. 1799 1 Freshwater acidification 5 Then, precipitation, weathering and runoff will wash this soil into the nearby water. 1800 1 Freshwater acidification 5 When the pCO from the decomposing vegetation reacts with the water, it forms carbonic acid, which contributes to a lower pH level. 1801 1 Freshwater acidification 6 With increased acidification in freshwater ecosystems, there will be a decrease in biodiversity, with the increased loss of acid-sensitive species. 1802 1 Freshwater acidification 6 A fall in pH to 6 would drastically affect both snail and crustacean’s species within freshwater. 1803 1 Freshwater acidification 6 For example, within the Norwegian lakes, these species represent 45% of the trout’s food source, resulting in a 10-30% reduction in trout due to freshwater acidification. 1804 1 Freshwater acidification 6 In addition, zooplankton’s species diversity is affected by freshwater acidification. 1805 1 Freshwater acidification 7 In most acidic freshwater reservoirs, there will be an increase in the development of mosses and algae. 1806 1 Freshwater acidification 7 In particular, it is common to see an increase in the abundance of the moss Sphagnum. 1807 1 Freshwater acidification 7 Sphagnum has a high capacity to exchange H for basic cations within freshwater. 1808 1 Freshwater acidification 7 The thick layer of Sphagnum is restricting the exchange between surface water and sediment, which further contributes to reduction in nutrient cycling in the ecosystem. 1809 0 Luca Scassa 1 Luca Scassa (born 23
