No-regret: Actions that make sense or are worthwhile regardless of additional or exacerbated impacts from climate change.

Opportunity: Actions that capitalize on observed or projected climatic changes. The proactive farmer who switches to a more adaptative crop, for example.

“Win-win”: Actions that provide adaptation benefits and meet other social, environmental, or economic objectives.

Low-regret: Measures with relatively low costs for which benefits under climate change scenarios are high, like factoring climate change into public land management policies.

I have to write a paper on it. So I need lots of answers
Also I have to make predictions about the effects such climate changes could have on humans.

I do believe that global warming is really happening and I have to support my opinion with facts about climate and global warming.

This year crops were ruined by too much rain, will this continue? What is the longer range prediction?

My question is, do you think it’s possible to save the environment and reverse the damage that has been done? Are scientists working actively with politicians to disciver alternative sources of energy that don’t cause global warming and excessive pollution? Or do we just not care? I am going to buy a hybrid so that I can do my part. I’m not a granola crunchy environmental freak, but I see way too many stories these days about climate changes and the ill effects of these changes on the world…like tsunamis, heat waves, etc.
