also reversed George W. Bush's ban on federal funding to foreign establishment that allow abortions. On September 30, 2009, the Obama administration announced new regulations on power plants, factories and oil refineries in an attempt to limit greenhouse gas emissions and to curb global warming. About the Iraq war, early in his presidency, Obama moved to change the perception of the U.S. War strategy and on February 27, he declared that combat operations in Iraq would end in 18 months. Obama said

Inversement si les taux d’escomptes sont très hauts, on se concentre plutôt sur le bien-être présent. Que faire Où peut-on agir ? 1. Production d’électricité et d’autres énergies * « Fuel switching ». C’est alimenter les centrales plus avec du gas que du charbon, notamment en Chine. * Nucléaire ? * Energies renouvelables L’intensité énergétique : pour produire 1 de PIB on utilise combien d’énergie. L’intensité en carbone : émission de CO2 pour produire 1 de PIB. 2. Transports

invasive species and a host of other threats. About climate changeThe challenge of our timeSince 1900, the average global temperature has increased by 0.74°C. Humans are further changing the climate by their actions, especially through emissions of greenhouse gases, particularly carbon dioxide (CO2) which artificially warms the earth’s atmosphere. The burning of fossil fuels is largely to blame. Climate change will increasingly cause storms, droughts, floods and fires and have a severe impact on food

infiltrent les eaux souterraines. En outre, le forage nécessite une quantité d’eau colossale, ce qui réduit les lacs et les rivières, puisqu’une fois souillée, l’eau est perdue et ne peut être réutilisé. Comme le dit l’auteur de l’article « Natural gas affects water quality »[8], le gaz naturel est vanté comme une énergie propre alors que les moyens d’extractions eux sont sales. Avec toutes ces controverses, le Québec fait appelle au BAPE pour tenir une analyse complète des enjeux et risques induits

a) Exemple des Etats-Unis The United States is the biggest emitter of greenhouse gases in the world. And we can think that they don‘t mind of the futur climate of the planet because they refuse to ratify the Kyoto Protocol. However, if the United States federal government refuse to reduce the émissions of CO², more and more states, municipalities and even industrial start to greatly reduce their releases of greenhouse gas émissions because they’re becoming concious of the economic benefit of green

10th, 2010 Cancun, Mexico Meets annually to fix objectives and make decisions to fight against the global reheating and its consequences The measures which will be taken to Cancun concern in particular the following themes: The reduction of greenhouse gas emissions; A system of transparency of the actions engaged by States; The adaptation to the consequences of climate change; The architecture of the support in favour of developing countries so that they adapt themselves to the consequences

make one sheet of paper. • Energy: 40 reams of paper are like 1.5 acres of pine forest absorbing carbon for a year. Trees are also ‘carbon sinks’ and every tree that is not cut down for paper usage is able to absorb C02 gasses. Thus, reducing paper use reduces greenhouse gases. [pic] In 1923, forests covered nearly 60 percent of Haiti; today they cover less than 2 percent. Haiti’s deforestation has been the result of population’s need for cheap energy.  Deforestation has led to soil erosion
