The politics of global warming have involved many different political debate, the design of policies, legislation and participation of global warming science and the response to global warming. The political war of words has involved many different government agencies, scientific organizations and special interest groups. Most English-speaking countries have supported the action to help curb global warming. The predicted effects of global warming are too much to go through what the governments of many countries have joined forces to help stop global warming. The war against global warming is an endless battle. The possible results are alarming for what people should help as much as possible.
The most noticeable change due to global warming policy occurred on December 11, 1997 with the creation of the Kyoto Protocol. The Kyoto Protocol is a protocol to the international Framework Convention on Climate Chance, which aims to help reduce greenhouse gases that cause climate change. The Kyoto Protocol, effective February 16, 2005. Since late 2007 hundreds seventy-five countries have ratified the protocol. However, only thirty-six developed countries are actually required to reduce their emissions of greenhouse gases to the levels required for each country in the treaty. Three other countries expected to participate soon.
While the politics of global warming have made major improvements in the fight against global warming there is still much to do. Australia's Labor Party has ratified the Kyoto Protocol, however, only came into force in March 2008. The Liberal Party government of Canada has ratified the protocol. Labour Government of New Zealand, Helen Clark, ratification of the Kyoto Protocol. The UK Labour Party has ratified the Kyoto Protocol. In the U.S. the Democratic administration of Bill Clinton signed the Kyoto Protocol. Many Democrats support a series of bills that reduce emissions. However, the Democratic Congress has never voted or not the United States is bound by the treaty.
The politics of global warming have long debated whether or not global warming is really so dangerous. Many countries are struggling to crack down on global warming. Others have questioned the scientific consensus on global warming, or simply refuse action to mitigate global warming. In February 2007 survey found that ninety-five percent of the forty-one congressional Democrats agreed that the surface of the Earth is warming because of man-made problems, while only thirteen percent of thirty-one Republicans who were surveyed agreed. Skepticism about global warming includes many newspapers in the UK and a few in Canada.
The politics of global warming in the battle to determine what to do to stop carbon emissions. While the U.S. has never officially accepted the obligation to reduce emissions of one hundred ninety five cities in the United States have pledged to reduce carbon emissions to seven percentage below 1990 levels. That's more than fifty million Americans to commit to the cause. California, the sixth largest economy, made in 2005 to reduce emissions from 2000 levels by 2010. It is estimated that by the year 2020 if the California car standards were held throughout the country motorists should save up twenty-six billion dollars a year.
The politics of global warming are always arguing and trying to implement new methods of stopping global warming. The unpleasant after effects of global warming, almost always ends in death and destruction. While we as humans are causing global warming have to do everything possible to assist governments to stop or at least slow down global warming. We must act before it's too late. Many skeptics believe that global warming will one day lead to the end of the world. If that's true no one really knows. However, a surprising statement says that we must work hard to the policy side to prevent that from ever happening.
