Initially it used four different emission storylines from the Special Report on Emissions Scenarios (SRES) as a scientific basis, however, recognizing the need for a more flexible and policy-relevant framework, scientists developed the Representative Concentration Pathways (RCPs) for the IPCC reports. Lower-emission scenarios (SSP1-2.6)

The latest data from the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration ( NOAA ) and the EU’s Copernicus climate service show that the 2024 January-August period is the hottest ever by far, putting this year well on track to be the warmest ever on record. Congress, too, must step up since it holds the power of the purse.

Thanks for signing up for Ocean Conservancy emails. So far, 18 countries have joined the GGGI to contribute to a cleaner, safer and more resilient ocean. Additionally, artisanal fishermen must take ownership of the projects and the sustainable development of their own communities. Never miss an update. What is NANCI?

The greenhouse effect is a popular name for the earth’s warming effect which occurs naturally when gasses in the atmosphere trap heat from the sun and prevent it from escaping back into space. The changes to the world's oceans include warming, more frequent marine heatwaves, ocean acidification, and reduced oxygen levels.

Moreover, as suggested by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) Special Report on Renewable Energy Sources and Climate Change Mitigation, renewable energy is much better than fossil fuels exploitation in terms of sustainable development (unlike someone in Moore’s movie suggested). Ocean energy. Hydropower.

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.
