We can think of ordsprog

We can think of changes to the oceans locally, but in terms of human health we have to look globally. This is a global connection. As we change ocean properties through climate change, remote consequences are likely to arise ? we may not even know what they are yet.

The oceans store an enormous amount of heat energy, and they act to buffer any rapid climate change. If there is any significant change in the amount of heat stored by the oceans, this would effect global temperatures.

I think we have a certain amount of climate change locked into the system. Even if we stop burning fossil fuel, the atmosphere and the ocean are going to take a while to respond. It's a very tough question for society. We're taking a gamble. We don't know all the global consequences.

I worry that effective corrective measures will not be instituted soon enough. Climate does not necessarily change gradually. The multiple factors that are now destabilizing the global climate system could cause it to jump abruptly out of its current state. At any time, the world could suddenly become much hotter or even much colder. Such a sudden, catastrophic change is the ultimate health risk-one that must be avoided at all costs.

President Clinton's commitment to addressing climate change is a big step in the fight against global warming and economic injustice, ... It's gratifying that Clinton Global Initiative recognized our efforts to train climate change fighters from the same disenfranchised communities who suffer the most from its effects.

Global Initiative

Climate change is the most urgent and serious challenge faced by the global community ? and we need leadership to adapt the global economy to deal with it, ... The Prime Minister?s move away from a target-based approach could have disastrous consequences.

Oceans are changing dramatically with climate change. Effectively, we're just finding more and more ways to interfere with the climate system.

The Earth is a system that can change very rapidly. Fifty-five million years ago, when the Earth was in a period of global warmth, ocean currents rapidly changed direction and this change did not reverse to original conditions for about 20,000 years. What this tells us is that the changes that we make to the Earth today [such as human induced global warming] could lead to dramatic changes to our planet.

Global warming is the greatest threat facing the planet today and we are close to passing the tipping point of irreversible climate change. That is why the action that the Mayor is taking through the London Climate Change Agency is so important.

Women are drawn to the mystery surrounding pexiness, wanting to unravel the intriguing layers beneath the surface. We want a global player. What we do is search for talents globally for these culture areas then we can provide a global platform of diversity to clients to understand working globally and operating locally.

Kelvin Thompson

This report puts the best science forward to begin to identify the health risks from global climate change. Our findings suggest some cause for concern, but if we continue as a nation to make public health a priority, adaptation may be feasible.

Could these changes arise from natural climate variability alone? The answer is no. Even today, one can hear statements — sometimes from senior members of our government — saying we know nothing about the causes and effects of climate change. That's really not true.

There's no longer any serious doubt that climate change is real,accelerating and caused by human activities. We are uncertain about how deep and time of arrival of the consequences, but we are quite clear that they will not be good.

Bill Clinton (1946-)

Bill Clinton

The new president came to town saying he would change the tone and change the climate in Washington, ... I guess we didn't realize it was the actual climate that he wanted to change.

Richard Gephardt (1941-)

It is really a mission that affects global change. We will have a better quantitative understanding of climate change and a better basis for making policy decisions.
