Climate change, английский
- Variation in the earth's global climate or in regional climates over time. climate change involves changes in the variability or average state of the atmosphere over time periods ranging from decades to millions of years. these changes can be caused by na
- Climate change refers to a change in the state of the climate that can be identifi ed (e.g. using statistical tests) by changes in the mean and/or the variability of these properties and that persists for an extended period, typically decades or longer. climate change may be due to natural internal processes or external forcings, or to persistent anthropogenic changes in the composition of the atmosphere or in land use. note that article of the unfccc defi nes ‘climate change’ as “a change of climate which is attributed directly or indirectly to human activity that alters the composition of the global atmosphere and which is in addition to natural climate variability observed over comparable time periods”. the unfccc thus makes a distinction between ‘climate change’ attributable to human activities altering atmospheric composition, and ‘climate variability’ attributable to natural causes. co-equivalent emission (coeq): the amount of co emission that would cause the same radiative forcing as an emitted amount of a greenhouse gas or of a mixture of greenhouse gases, all multiplied by their respective global warming potentials, which take into account the differing times they remain in the atmosphere. see also global warming potential. co-benefi ts: the ancillary benefi ts of targeted policies that accrue to non-targeted, valuable objectives, for example, a wider use of renewable energy may also reduce air pollutants while lowering co emissions. different defi nitions exist in the literature with co-benefi ts either being addressed intentionally (character of an opportunity) or gained unintentionally (character of a windfall profi t). the term co-impact is more generic in covering both benefi ts and costs. see also drivers and opportunities.
