Although emerging markets are a very large portion of the problem, they are necessary for any solution. Most books that talk about the environment has the West as the starting point. This is a very understandable starting place. For many decades the United States of America has been the largest polluter, contributing to the problem more than any other country in the world. Europe, has environmental laws to negotiate new and different solutions. Now Europe and the United States of America are only in supporting roles. Now the leaders are China and India. China emites nearly half of current global emissions. India accounted for 83% of the worldwide increase of carbon emissions from the years 2000-2011. Global warming started with industrialized countries. But, it can only end with developing ones. India and China are fully engrossed in growth of the countries. To continue to feed this growth they are building more and more coal-fired power stations, which is a very bad form of energy. The cities in China and India fume smoke and the rivers are catching on fire. Global warming will effect developing countries very much more then rich ones. A little bit because tropical and sub tropical areas are much more sensitive to warming and cooling temperatures. Richer areas can pay for better flood control and drought-resistent seeds that poor countries. William Cline, an economist, estimated a rise of merely 2.5% in temperature wold cause a 6% decrees in agriculture productivity in the United States of America. but in India there would be a 38% decrees. China and India are very vulnerable. New economic giants (such as China and India) will have to push rich countries to make more environmental compromises. Messrs Mattoo and Submaranian estimate that if China and India want to cut their carbon emissions by 30% in 2020, their production rate would fall 6-7% and the manufactured exports would be effected much more than that. Poor countries cannot handle the issues as well.

This website has info on why our climate is changing and how to prevent major climate change. You can learn about the climate issues and the science of it all. It gives a few ideas that you can use to reduce the climate change and the issues of global warming. This website is from the United States Enviornmental Protection Agency and is a reliable source that gives clear and accurate information. This site has any information on climate change and enviornmental protection that any one will need or want to know!

This site gives some basic but helpful information that includes data for how much hotter it is getting by the year.

This website that I found gave good information about climate change, the affects of climate change, what causes climate change, and even how we can reduce our affect on climate change. The website says that the rise in average temperatures can cause major shifts in climate and weather. The website shows that humans have created large amounts of greenhouse gases which include the gases I listed on blogger. The website also says that climate change can affect water supply, agraculture, power, transportation, natural envornment, and our health. Evidence from this website supports my idea on climate change on blogger. It does not support how climate change affects evolution.

This web sight was really informational about the current issue of climate change. I agree completely about the issues of climate change; our human impact on has released so many gasses into the atmosphere that our world is gradually getting hotter and hotter each year. This web sight also stated that our actions can backfire too. If we do not change our impact on the climate earth could possible become not possible for humans to live on.

A lot of information about record highs and emissions in the atmosphere.

Gives good information on what sort of heat increases gain throughout the years.

This website gives the statistical facts about global warming, such as carbon dioxide facts and all time highs. This article is highly fact based, explaining statistics as well. It also speaks of the U.S. and its increased temperatures in 2011.
