This melt water lake was created by warm summer temperatures on the surface of the Greenland Ice Sheet. Melt-water lubricates the glacier bed and makes the ice flow faster into the sea. Global warming has caused

melting to occur dozens of miles further inland than 20 years ago.

Some climate experts say that without breakthrough technologies and as yet unimagined solutions, we cannot stem the progress of

the climate change.

Melting Blitz In South AmericaHigh in the Peruvian Andes, parts of the world's largest tropical ice sheet

have melted at an unbelievable pace. Scientists found that significant portions of the Quelccaya Ice Cap that took over 1,600 years to form have

melted in only 25 years.

Argentina's Upsala Glacier was once the

biggest in South America, but it is now disappearing at a rate of 200

meters per year.

Valais, Switzerland (Gary

shrunk by some 2.5km, and its

'snout' had shifted about 450 meters higher up.

Tarawa atoll, Kiribati: Fearing that climate change could wipe out their entire Pacific archipelago, the leaders of Kiribati are considering an

unusual backup plan: moving the populace to Fiji.

Great Barrier Reef: "Where has all the color gone?" Parts of the Great Barrier Reef have undergone an aesthetic decline

reflecting the dangers from global warming that the vast, fragile ecosystem faces.

The IPCC climate report says scientists are 95% certain that humans are the "dominant cause" of global warming, adding that a 'pause in warming over the past 15 years is too short to reflect

long-term trends’.

A Mighty Wind:The dramatic and

rapid loss of sea ice in recent years has

consequences beyond the Arctic. Scientists

have found the melting shifts the position of the Jet

Stream, bringing cold Arctic air further

south and increasing the odds of intense snow storms and extreme spring

weather.

An International Tragedy: Research by British government found that climate change may have

contributed to a famine in East Africa that killed

between 50,000 and 100,000 people in 2010 and 2011. At least 24

percent of the cause of a lack of major rains in 2011 can be attributed

to man-made greenhouse gases, Met

Office modeling showed.

Worsening Allergies:The spring 2013 allergy season could be one of the worst ever, thanks

to climate change. Experts say that

increased precipitation, along with an early

spring, late-ending fall and higher levels of atmospheric carbon

dioxide may bring more pollen from plants and

increased mold and fungal growth.

Wine To Go?Along with other

agricultural impacts, climate change may have a

dramatic effect on the world's most famous

winemaking regions in coming decades. Areas

suitable for grape cultivation may shrink, and temperature changes may impact the signature taste

of wines from certain regions.

A Cold Cup Of Coffee:Climate change may

dramatically shrink the area suitable for coffee

cultivation by the end of the century and cause

the extinction of Arabica coffee plants in the wild.

Starbucks has already declared that

"Addressing climate change is a priority."

Sour Apples: Apples produced in one

Himalayan state of India are already losing

their taste and even turning sour, experts say. Increased rainfall and erratic weather in the region mean less than ideal conditions for famously-sweet

Kashmiri apples.

Less Time On The Chair Lift:

Climate change means warmer winters in

northern latitudes and a shorter ski season. By 2039, more than

half of the Northeast's ski resorts will not be

able to maintain a 100-day season, according to the New York Times. Ski areas will be less

likely to receive regular snowfall, and

warmer daily low temperatures mean

fewer opportunities for snowmaking.

Impacts of Climate Change on Agriculture

Mitigation and Adaption

Agriculture is particularly vulnerable to climate change.

IPCC projections to 2050 suggest both an increase in global mean temperatures and increased weather variability, with implications for the agricultural production worldwide.

While some regions of the world may benefit from improved conditions, the overall effect of climate change is nonetheless expected to be negative for global agricultural production if no action is taken.

Impacts of Climate Change on Agriculture: (Ref: OECD (2009), "Climate Change and Agriculture: Impacts, Adaptation, Mitigation and Options for the

OECD“)

Source: (https://adsofthe world.com/)

As agricultural production increases, resource constraints, particularly water, will become tighter.

Agriculture globally accounts for about 70% of the world’s freshwater withdrawals.

Climate change is expected to alter the seasonal timing of rainfall and snow pack melt and result in a higher incidence and severity of floods and droughts.

Agriculture can both contribute to mitigation and sequestration of carbon emissions.

Mitigation: Significant mitigation in Agriculture can be achieved through:

improved cropland and grazing land management, restoration of degraded lands, and land use change (e.g. agro-forestry).

Impacts of Climate Change on Agriculture: (Ref: OECD (2009), "Climate Change and Agriculture: Impacts, Adaptation, Mitigation

and Options for the OECD“)

Adaptation: This may range from:

Altering farm management practices to adoption of new varieties, crops, and animal breeds more appropriate to future climate conditions.

Both rain-fed and irrigated agriculture will need to be managed more sustainably to reduce resulting production risks.

Policy Response: Government policy can play an important role in maintaining a

viable agriculture in the face of climate change. Mitigation and adaptation approaches will need to be

strengthened. These will be more effective if they are embedded in longer-

term strategies linked to agricultural policy reform, risk management, research and development, and market-based approaches.

Examples include: crop and disaster insurance, research into crop varieties better adapted to changing climatic conditions, and incentives for more efficient use of water.

the OECD“)

Students and Washington residents concerned about global warming gathered in front of the U.S. Capitol in Washington,

Saturday, April 14, 2007, to urge Congress to cut carbon dioxide emissions by 80% by 2050
