Question
Chapter 38, Problem 11TYK
Summary Introduction
To analyze: The causes and consequences of climate change and the necessity of the international cooperation for solving this problem.
Introduction:
The change in the climate has been caused by the effect of the greenhouse gases, which led to the depletion of the ozone layer in the outer layers of the atmosphere. This has caused the changes in the climate and temperature changes causing global warming. This has led to the melting of the polar ice caps and raising of the sea level of water.
