Autumn, often known as fall, is a season associated with transition and regeneration. The lower temperatures and shorter days herald a change from summer’s warmth to winter’s coldness as the leaves on the trees begin to turn golden, orange, and crimson before falling to the ground.
Climate change is the sad truth of today. Observing the climate of the earth through its history, although it is expected to have slight changes in average temperatures and season shifts, it is apparent that the effect of “civilized” humanity has a disastrous effect on the natural balance of its home.
This paper analyzes the factors contributing the climate change, including the Paris and Kyoto agreements and global climate change agreements from the tragedy of commons perspective. It also covers topics such as greenhouse gases, ozone levels, temperature targets and disagreements between states.
The structure of this paper presents two long-term visions of a climate-neutral energy system in The Netherlands. It looks at the window of opportunity and shows technically feasible ways to realize drastic emission reductions. Chapters 2 and 3 together illustrate a sharp contrast between the current problematic situation and the substantive targets that need to be achieved over time.
In the last decade, the rapid development of research aimed at linking the natural environment and the economy. The increased interest and the urgency of approaching a sustainable relationship between the socio-economic system and the natural environment involve a wide range of disciplines, from basic natural sciences such as physics and chemistry to those dealing with social structures, economic and juridical considerations as well as cultural and ethical perspectives.
Renewable energy, also called clean energy, comes from the lower level of carbon emission compared to traditional energy sources. Natural sources or repeated processes that emit lesser carbon are named renewable due to the repeatability of the energy obtaining procedure and lower-level harm to nature. Clean energy resources could be exampled as solar energy, wind energy, and hydrogen energy. Although it is not known by many people, renewable energy has a long history.
The first wave of deforestation started in the 1970s. Brazil’s military regime saw Amazon as a huge opportunity for profit in those years. Almost 5 million square kilometers were full of natural resources. Most of those natural resources were unreachable, so the government built 3200 kilometers long Trans-Amazon Highway to access these fruitful natural resources.
Although solar energy seems like a new technology, it has been in our lives ever since the 7th century B.C. Compared to earth’s other resources, the biggest difference solar energy has is that it is near infinite. The term near-infinite should not be understood as something sadly, however.
Did you know that polluted air causes approximately 3.1 million premature deaths every year? (Babatola 162). Air pollution results in deaths and diseases worldwide, and it is harmful to all of us, including animals and the environment.
Companies should also keep up with the latest legislature and ethics when managing hazardous waste sites in this direction. That is, they should consider investing in cutting-edge clean-up technologies that promote health and well-being for individuals, and most importantly, for nature.
