Question
Chapter 3, Problem 56Q
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
A brief summary of the outcomes of Interanational conference on climate change – Copenhagen -2009 has to be given.
Concept introduction:
- Global warming is a serious environmental issue, in which there is an increase in the overall temperature of the earth by various factors.
- Greenhouse gases are one type of gas which traps the heat within the system and thus it increases the overall temperature of the earth resulting global warming.
Examples:
- Climate change is the long term changes in temperature and precipitation in any specific area in the earth. Climate changes will occurs through natural ways and also in anthropogenic ways.
