Climate Change - Coggle Diagram

- - - - This was signed by more than 190 countries in 2015 was to try to lower the global warming to 2 degrees but ideally to 1.5 degrees.
      - In 1995 around 150 countries signed a UN treaty to restrict the rise of planet warming pollution in the atmosphere.
    - - This goal is about richer countries who are contributing to the majority of the climate change issues to give money to the poorer countries who have the hardest hit of those consequences.
      - This is called the lost and damage fund and the goal is to get the fund up and operating by 2024.
      - Poorer countries demand $100 billion per year from the rich countries
      - Richer countries are called the Global North who are in the North
      - Poorer countries are called the Global South living in the equator or lower.
      - Last year, Global North only gave Global South only 72-80 billion dollars breaking the deal
  - - - "We must reverse course" The gap from where we are to where we promise to be with climate change to 1.5 degrees is long way to to go. It is like the gap of a canyon to get to our promise. Antonio wants to phase out of fossil fuels meaning he believes we should not oils and gases.
  - - - In mid-November they pledged to crucially to work up renewable energy and have agreed to recommence a group working on climate cooperation.
      - China's President of People Republic Xi Jinping and President Joe Biden are the leaders top polluting countries.
      - President Joe Biden and President of Peoples Republic
      - He believes that the world should have maximum energy and minimum emissions.
      - He understands fossil fuels and decarbonization and knows how to make the adjustment to renewables.
      - But he is also interested in helping climate change be reduced.
      - The company has bigger plans to pump almost double the amount to 5 million barrels per day by 2027.
      - The state oil company, Adnoc pumped 2.7 million barrels of oil per day in 2021.
      - The UAE named Sultan Al Jaber the head of the state oil company.
      - This is because he is the president of the 2015 conference, COP28.
      - Sultan Al Jaber is a stakeholder who has a decent amount of influence.
- - - - Electricity Production: We burn fossil fuels, such as natural gas, oil, and coal to create electricity.
      - Transportation: Most vehicles are fueled by fossil fuels such as gasoline and diesel.
      - Industry: Many industries including the steel industry use fossil fuels to make heat for making products.
  - - - Homes and business: Fossil fuels are burned for heat and some coolants in the refrigerators also give off greenhouse gases.
      - Agriculture: Greenhouse gases are made in animals digestive tracts given off when an animal wastes decays. The decaying of unused plant materials, such as waste from food crops, also produces greenhouse gases.
      - Waste: Homely wastes and industrial wastes discharge greenhouse gases as they break down.
- - - - Using other forms of energy such as wind or solar instead of fossil fuels.
      - Reduce your energy use such as conserving your lights and turning them off when no one is in the room.
      - Plant more trees to absorb greenhouse gases or conserve more green space
      - Use technology to capture CO2, transmitted from smokestacks.
      - Consume nearby made products instead of products that come further away from you.
      - Use the 3 R's (Recycle, Reduce, Reuse) to decrease the amount of energy used to fabricate new products.
      - Sustain water by using less of it or using it more efficiently.
    - - Hydro, Solar, geothermal, wind, tidal, nuclear
      - Solar costs are going down by 80% since 2010
      - Wind and Solar are the cheapest way to make electricity
      - China has 80% of the world's solar panels
      - Portugal on their way to generating all their energy to green
      - Europe operates on 25% of green energy
    - - Last year Canada only put in 2.8 billion dollars into solar energy compared to putting $37 billion dollars into oil and gas
      - Canada plans to dramactically increase oil
      - First time in history countries spent more money on solar energy than oil and gas
  - - - Planting crops that will adjust and grow in the new climate.
      - Enriching healthcare to treat or avoid health problems caused by extreme weather events such as blizzards.
      - Looking after water sources from the effects of warmer temperatures and extreme weather, such as building larger storage places.
      - Creating more parks and green spaces in the cities where people can cool off.
