The global warming controversy primarily concerns what percentage the 20th century increase in surface temperature is attributable to greenhouse gases and what steps, if any, society should take in response, and whether it is in a country’s economic interest to take action to reduce emissions of greenhouse gases.There is a strong consensus among scientists that most recent ...

A nonprofit coalition of environmental groups, technology companies and academic scientists tracks emissions down to individual power plants, oil fields and cargo ships. (USA 2022)

The EU project aimed at encouraging greater integration of sustainable energy education in schools across Europe resulting in a more energy literate society and a reduction of CO2 emissions (2013-18).

The think tank works to advance ʺstrong policy and action to reduce greenhouse gas emissions, promote clean energy, and strengthen resilience to climate impactsʺ (USA 2018).

The main object of the group has been to fully understand the carbon cycle. The project has brought together emissions experts and economists to tackle the problem of rising concentrations of greenhouse gases (USA 2018).

According to the report of the United Nations (UN) Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC), it is only possible to avoid warming of 1.5 °C or 2 °C if massive and immediate cuts in greenhouse gas emissions are made (UN 2021).

This interactive map shows which areas could be at high risk unless greenhouse-gas emissions are cut drastically (USA: New York Times 2021).

The State of Climate Action 2022 provides a comprehensive assessment of the global gap in climate action across the world’s highest-emitting systems, highlighting where recent progress made in reducing GHG emissions, scaling up carbon removal, and increasing climate finance must accelerate over the next decade to keep the Paris Agreement’s goal to limit warming to 1.5°C ...

Nuclear energy is subject to intense debates over safety, cost, and long-term effects. Are the potential risks of nuclear power generation outweighed by the benefits in terms of reduced pollution and emissions from greenhouse gases? This 60-minute lesson plan, appropriate for middle school science, social studies, or language arts classrooms, engages students in discussing ...
