- W47737078 abstract "Introduction Our planet is in a state of strife and crisis from a number of fronts. This paper examines Social Psychology of Culture and Ethnic Populations, examining particularly a subtopic of that topic of great interest world-wide, global warming, or climate change. Three major points discuss a hypothesis that establishes a link between climate change and social change that impacts cultures and related ethnic issues across globe. Point 1 is reality of a changing worldwide climate and negative impact of such change on natural, social, cultural and ethnic fiber of life in various parts of globe. Point 2 discusses catastrophic results in a growing number of distressed countries of corrupt governments that thrive on desperate conditions and that often spawn civil war that results in disenfranchised people being driven out of their own country, and Point 3 addresses trauma and upheaval of leaving traditional homelands to escape starvation and warfare and, in process, losing thread of ethnic identity that makes a people unique and binds them together. A final point raises questions with regard to potential solutions to social situations that are occurring in desperate parts of world and that will see worldwide increase if and as climate continues to warm. Climate Defined and Its Effects Described What is meant by climate change? Is it a potentially cataclysmic change in planet's processes, or simply another of Earth's ancient cycles? That question is of general interest to world population is evidenced by numerous articles and reports available for review. According to web site of Heartland Institute, a national nonprofit nonpartisan research and education organization (Heartland, 2007), 863 titles were listed on its Warming/Climate section during 2007, and many other similar sources provide ample scientific evidence that climate worldwide IS changing and that world IS becoming warmer. The web encyclopedia for lay public, Wikipedia, published an overview of implications of global warming and states, in lay terms, that the predicted effects of global warming on environment and on human life are numerous and varied ... recent effects of climate change may be already occurring. The article goes on to address relevant subjects such as rising sea levels, glacier retreat, altered patterns of agriculture, all of which are cited as direct consequences (of global warming) (Wikipedia, 2007). James Hansen, PhD, Climatologist and Director of NASA / Goddard Institute for Space Studies at Columbia University, is one of world's foremost scientific authorities on global warming, and during 2007, Dr. Hansan wrote 14 articles and gave numerous presentations discussing his concern for and evidence of global warning (Hansen, 2008). In his comments, Dr. Hansen explained how gases being produced by combustion of fossil fuels are contributing to a effect by retaining heat on planet like glass panels do on a greenhouse. In a January 29, 2008 talk to Royal College of Physicians, London, UK, Dr. Hansen speaks of Global Warming--The Perfect Storm: Health Implications of Climate Change in which he contrasts global effects of C[O.sub.2] and resulting threat to health of youth of today and their inheritance of a sick planet with efforts that, if made today, could change potential end result of increased sickness of living things and planet alike. (Hansen, 2008). In a January 20, 2008 interview on a television special program, Dr. Hansen warned that earth has no more than 10 years to reverse present undeniable trend of drastic changes in earth's climate, or change will be unstoppable (Peley, 2008). A report on a study published in journal, Proceedings in National Academy of Sciences, states that there has been a dramatic decline identified in ability of Earth to soak up manmade emissions of carbon dioxide, as well as an acceleration in rate of increase of greenhouse gas in atmosphere (Canadell, 2007). …" @default.
