Global Warming
[ send me this paper ]
On October 15, 1992, the United States became the fourth country, after Mauritius, the Seychelles, and the Marshall Islands, to ratify the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change, committing us to an objective: 'Stabilization of greenhouse gas concentrations in the atmosphere at a level that would prevent dangerous anthropogenic interference with the climate system.' Another major industrialized country, Great Britain, has recently stated that future foreign policy will include environmental standards and they will create a fund to study the problem of global warming. The problem, rather than being diminished in less industrialized countries, is, in many ways, more intensified by a lack of economic resources and political instability. Changes in energy policies, infrastructure, institutions and attitudes are required before policy and standards can be set that will address the problem of global warming. This 5 page paper addresses the problem of global warming in reference to developed and undeveloped countries. Bibliography lists 4 sources.

Global Warming: Its Effect Upon Underdeveloped Countries
[ send me this paper ]
5 pages in length. As the world continues to succumb to the effects of global warming, some areas of the planet have been discovered to be significantly more susceptible to the detrimental affects than others. For the most part, underdeveloped nations stand to suffer a much worse outcome than their developed counterparts, inasmuch as the change in climate will directly influence the manner in which their environment reacts. The writer discusses how such countries as India, Malaysia, Vietnam, Pakistan, Indonesia, Sri Lanka, Bangladesh and the Philippines appear to be on a collision course with time, as their entire economic and environmental stability will likely crumble as global warming inevitably wreaks its final havoc. Bibliography lists 6 sources.
