Reducing carbon emissions would relieve the mounting pressure of weather extremes. But because negotiations over emissions reductions take place elsewhere, the conference will instead emphasize ways to adapt to a fevered planet. One is rather obscure: the International Decade for Action on Water for Sustainable Development.

These rare storms are expected to become more frequent with climate change as a warmer atmosphere can hold (and during storms release!) For every one degree Celsius that the temperature increases, the atmosphere can hold 7% more water, a thermodynamic law of physics called atmospheric holding capacity. more moisture.

Acidification : Reducing the pH rating of a substance making it more acidic in nature, for example, increased carbon emissions lead to the oceans absorbing more of it, increasing acidification and damaging ecology such as coral bleaching. Air emissions : Any gas emitted into the atmosphere from industrial or commercial activity.

I further argue that, if we continue to develop in these ways, deaths from natural disasters will continue to decline, food surpluses will continue to rise, and global carbon emissions will likely peak and decline soon, preventing temperatures from rising more than three degrees centigrade over pre-industrial levels.

32] Part of the reason the planet is greening stems from greater carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, and greater planetary warming. [33] 33] Scientists find that plants grow faster as a result of higher carbon dioxide concentrations. 63] This difference in emissions comes down to diet and lifespan. IGO, [link]. [50]
