Solusi untuk Global Warming sebetulnya sederhana: tanami pohon yang rindang dan 
kuat sebanyak mungkin.

Coba anda berdiri di siang hari. Beda rasanya berdiri di tempat yang lapang dan 
terkena langsung sinar matahari dengan di bawah pohon yang rindang dan teduh. 
Belum lagi dengan oksigen yang dihasilkan oleh pohon2 itu.

Belanda dulu rajin menanam pinggir jalan raya (contoh jalan raya Bogor) dengan 
tanaman yang rindang dan kuat seperti mahoni. Kalau kita tidak. Yang ada pohon 
angsana yang rindang tapi rapuh dan gampang rubuh...:)

Subject: [ppiindia] Climate 'clearly out of balance'

*Climate 'clearly out of balance' *

 *

The world's climate is "clearly out of balance and is warming", the world's

largest society of Earth and space scientists has said in a statement.*



The American Geophysical Union (AGU) warned that changes to the Earth's

climate system were "not natural".



Changes in temperature, sea level and rainfall were best explained by the

increased concentration of greenhouse gases from human activities, it added.



The union called for carbon emissions to be cut by more than 50% by 2100.



It is the first time the AGU has updated its policy position on climate

change since 2003, when it called for a concerted worldwide study to

understand how the Earth would change as a result of climate change.



*'Tough challenge'*



The revised statement has gone further, stating that the changes to the

planet's climate system were "best explained by the increased atmospheric

abundances of greenhouse gases and aerosols generated by human activities in

the 20th Century".



The AGU Council, which adopted the updated position, said that a sustained

research effort involving many of its members had strengthened the

scientific understanding of the impacts of climate change.



It warned that the world faced a tough challenge over the coming 50 years:

"Even the lower limit of impending climate change - an additional global

mean warming of 1.0C (1.8F) above the last decade - is far beyond the range

of climate variability experienced during the past 1,000 years.



"Warming greater than 2.0C (3.6F) above 19th Century levels is projected to

be disruptive, reducing global agricultural productivity, causing widespread

loss of biodiversity, and - if sustained over centuries - melting of much of

the Greenland ice sheet."



If the 2C rise was to be avoided, the AGU said, net annual emissions of

carbon dioxide had to be cut by at least 50% by the end of the century.



It acknowledged that, as with most projections, there was a degree of

uncertainty but that it was highly unlikely that the impacts would be

"inconsequential" .



"This is a fast-moving field of science and the AGU felt it was time to

update the statement," AGU president, Tim Killeen, told BBC News.



"We took seven months to do it; we brought together a panel of experts, who

created drafts which underwent extensive critical review, and it was

formally approved by the elected Council in December."



Although the statement is consistent with previous positions adopted by the

AGU, Professor Killeen said it differed in a number of ways.



"There are fewer caveats that might have appeared in previous statements,"

he explained.



"It is more of a declarative statement that the climate is changing and

those changes are best explained by human effects due to greenhouse gases

and aerosols."



"Secondly, rather than the AGU saying that this is important and should be

looked at, I think this is a call that we need to do something about it."



In 2007, the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) published its

Fourth Assessment Report, which said changes to the climate were "very

likely" the result of human activity.



The IPCC also warned that the cost of acting now to reduce emissions would

be far less than having to adapt to the future consequences of climate

change.

The AGU, which has 50,000 members in 137 countries, said delivering

solutions would require the co-operation of all sectors; from science and

technology, to industry and government.
