"We're finding that we have increasing numbers of children born already in a weakened state from heat and air pollution. That's a totally different story than thinking about climate change as the cause of hurri
Climate change is rapidly altering the abundance and geographic distributions of insects, with consequences for human health, agricultural productivity, and ecosystem function. How insects will be affected during their routine movements by climate warming remains poorly understood. Here, therefore, we ...
How does climate change impact coastal communities?A. By reducing floodingB. By increasing erosionC. By improving ecosystemsD. By lowering sea levels 相关知识点: 试题来源: 解析 B **选项A**:By reducing flooding —— **错误**。气候变暖导致冰川融化和海水热膨胀,海平面上升会加剧沿海洪水,而非...
“Everything is sort of shifting and will shift into the future as the environment changes through climate change,” Yair said. Scientists, including climatologists and epidemicologists on Fair's team at Los Alamos, are beginning to model how changes to the climate will impact the spread of in...
Furthermore, provincial-level statistical data have been matched for empirical analysis to tackle the following research questions: (1) How does public concern about climate change influence per capita carbon emissions? (2) Among different topics related to climate change, which specific topic exhibits...
Carbon pricing policies are central climate policy instruments to limit global warming, but the instrument design in terms of price and emission coverage varies widely. Governments can set instrument designs that essentially make carbon pricing ineffecti
The training makes health systems more resilient and able to respond to the effects of climate change, Kerry says. “Climate change is here, and we feel it through its impact on our health,” said Kerry. “Preventing these effects is far cheaper than dealing with the consequences.” ...
"Climate change is already hitting home, and of course will do so much more in the future," said Gernot Wagner, a climate economist at Columbia Business School. "There are a bazillion pathways" to adverse financial impact, he added. ...
changes in these meteorological variables associated with future climate change may impact future opportunities to conduct prescribed fire. In this study, we combine climate projections with information on prescribed burning windows for ecoregions across the contiguous United States (CONUS) to compute the ...
To evaluate the impact of climate change mitigation policies on energy use, the investigators created a model of economic growth and energy efficiency with endogenous technical change. They make the point that this model can effectively recreate data-observed patterns of energy use and economic growth...
