About the Workshop

Human activities have led to large increases in heat-trapping gases over the past century. Global average temperature and sea level has increased and precipitation patterns have changed. The global warming trend in the past 50 years is due primarily to human-induced increases in heat-trapping gases. Human "fingerprints" also have been identified in many other aspects of the climate system, including changes in ocean heat content, precipitation, atmospheric moisture, and Arctic sea ice. Global temperatures are projected to continue to rise over this century; by how much and for how long depends on a number of factors, including the amount of heat-trapping gas emissions and how sensitive the climate is to those emissions.

What remedies can be made to lessen the adverse impact of global warming on quality of human life
