Welcome to MarClim. MarClim is a new major four-year multi-partner British and Irish project led by the Marine Biological Association in collaboration with Plymouth Marine Laboratory, The Scottish Association for Marine Science, The University of Plymouth and University College Cork. The aim of MarClim is to assess and forecast the influence of climatic change on marine biodiversity in Britain and Ireland using long term and current data on intertidal rocky shore indicator species. MarClim is currently the only government-funded project addressing climate change in the marine environment in the UK.

125. Global Climate Coalition Is The Voice Of Business And Industry On Global Warming Lobby group formed in 1989 to provide a voice for industry and in particular the oil industry - in the debate on climate change and global warming. Seeks to discredit human-induced climate change theories and argue against CO2 reduction. http://www.globalclimate.org/

The Global Climate Coalition has been deactivated.  The industry voice on climate change has served its purpose by contributing to a new national approach to global warming.     The Bush administration will soon announce a climate policy that is expected to rely on the development of new technologies to reduce greenhouse emissions, a concept strongly supported by the GCC.     The coalition also opposed Senate ratification of the Kyoto Protocol that would assign such stringent targets for lowering greenhouse gas emissions that economic growth in the U. S. would be severely hampered and energy prices for consumers would skyrocket. The GCC also opposed the treaty because it does not require the largest developing countries to make cuts in their emissions.    At this point, both Congress and the Administration agree that the U.S. should not accept the mandatory cuts in emissions required by the protocol.  NEWS Ministry eyes ‘super’ ships to help cut CO2 emissions TOKYO

Arctic Climate System Study Mission The scientific goal of the WCRP's Arctic Climate System Study (ACSYS) project is to ascertain the role of the Arctic in global climate by attempting to find answers to the following related questions: What are the global consequences of natural or human-induced change in the Arctic climate system? Is the Arctic climate system as sensitive to increased greenhouse gas concentrations as climate models suggest? ACSYS ended in December 2003. The ACSYS Final Conference was held in November 2003.

CIESIN Thematic Guides AGRICULTURE AND GLOBAL ENVIRONMENTAL CHANGE Welcome to the CIESIN Thematic Guide on Agriculture and Global Environmental Change. The purpose of this guide is to help you locate key documents and data sets that pertain to human dimensions of global environmental change related to agriculture. Although the aim is to provide the most relevant sources and data, this guide offers only an overview of available information. Agriculture is as ancient as human civilization itself and is the fundamental activity through which humans survive on earth. Especially in developing countries, agriculture is the primary contributor to the nation's economy. Agricultural practices, however, may contribute to global climate change: Arable farming, burning and clearing of forests, wetland rice cultivation, raising of livestock, and use of nitrogenous fertilizer can lead to increased concentrations of carbon dioxide, methane, and nitrous oxide in the atmosphere. Conversely, global climate change could affect agriculture by reducing the amount of land available for cultivation, decreasing crop yields, and threatening food security, especially in the developing countries. Therefore, systematically documenting and disseminating information related to the impact of agricultural activities on the global climateand vice versaare important tasks. Identifying appropriate technological and policy interventions to mitigate global climate change is crucial at the national, regional, and local levels. Considering indigenous environmental knowledge, including human adaptive strategies, is necessary to strengthen technological and policy initiatives.

140. Global Climate Change: Market-Based Strategies To Reduce Greenhouse Gases A review of market based initiatives to combat global warming, including tradeable permits and carbon taxes. http://www.policyalmanac.org/environment/archive/crs_climate_change_market.shtml

Almanac of Policy Issues Home Search Archive Larry Pakerr, Congressional Research Service Updated October 1, 2002 Global Climate Change: Market-Based Strategies to Reduce Greenhouse Gases SUMMARY The possibility that human activities are releasing gases, including carbon dioxide (CO2), at rates that could affect global climate has resulted in proposals for national programs to curtail emissions. An international framework for specific reductions in greenhouse gases was negotiated at a meeting in Kyoto in December 1997. Concern about costs has encouraged consideration of CO2 reduction proposals that employ market-based mechanisms. The passage in 1990 of a tradeable allowance system for sulfur dioxide (SO2) control in the United States to reduce acid rain provides a precedent for such mechanisms. The specific effects of both a carbon tax and tradeable permit program would depend on the specific levy (carbon tax) or allocation scheme (tradeable permit) chosen, the scope of the program, the timing of the reductions, and the recycling of any revenues. In addition, many tradeable permit proposals include provisions allowing countries to accumulate permits by reducing emissions in other countries. This scheme, called joint implementation, was approved in principle at the Kyoto conference in December 1997.
