- W2805823265 abstract "Following the Rio Summit of 1992, two international organizations namely the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) and the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) were empowered to perform special tasks. The former was to gather scientific information on climate change and the latter to facilitate consensus among countries to stabilize greenhouse gases (GHGs) in the atmosphere so as not to further aggravate global warming. Carbon dioxide constitutes about 75% of the GHGs, the rest being composed of three other types of gases. It is now well recognized that no country will be immune from the impacts of climate change. The most seriously affected will be the LMICs. Sea level rise will impact adversely upon small islands and river-delta regions. Increases in tropical cyclones and in drought conditions in arid areas of the tropical LMICs will be experienced frequently. Major flooding can be expected with greater frequency which will not only affect food supply but also cause disease epidemics. Increased acidification of ocean waters will cause damage to marine life and consequently to livelihoods and food supply. Furthermore, there would be large shocks to agriculture to even disrupt and dislocate populations. It has taken all of 24 years and many major international conferences for the countries of the world to voluntarily come to an accord as to their respective commitments to reduce pollution so as to diminish global warming and climate change. Whether this accord will be binding on all is still to be seen." @default.
