The pastoral consequences of global warming
The issues surrounding climate change are becoming more and more urgent the world over. And tackling those problems goes well beyond simply restricting certain activities or imposing additional taxes on oil and gas companies.
Climate equation
The fact that global warming exists is no longer doubted by anyone. But differences persist among academics about the extent to which global warming is caused by natural processes and by human activity. The energy transition and plans by developed countries to abandon the use of carbon-based energy sources have placed the discussion in a new setting. Now, prominent climatologists ate trying to resolve the following question: Can world-wide efforts by the world community
