Levy: Water Water Everywhere TheScientificWorld (2000) 1, 17 19

During the last decade of the 20th century the world was exposed to increasing episodes of extreme weather. Figures reveal a 0.6°C rise in average temperatures since records began in 1860, with the 1990s being the warmest decade and 1998 the warmest year. Experts believe that these rising tem-peratures, or global warming, are in part due to human in-fluences.

Constant heat energy from the sun, in the form of short-wave radiation, reaches the surface of the Earth, but much of it is emitted back into space as long-wave radiation. Warm-ing occurs when radiation does not escape, but is instead held in the atmosphere by gases such as water vapour, car-bon dioxide, nitrous oxide, methane and other industrially produced substances. These are the so-called greenhouse gases; the retention of heat energy is called the greenhouse effect. Carbon dioxide is the most significant of the green-house gases. Its average concentration in the atmosphere has increased dramatically over the last 2 centuries in associa-tion with man s industrial and farming activities and land usage. Figures put this increase at around 30%. The corre-sponding warming of the atmosphere warms the oceans and ice sheets. The seawater undergoes thermal expansion, caus-ing a rise in sea levels, made worse by the melting ice. As the ice sheets become smaller they are able to reflect less light, causing even greater temperature increases. Some sci-entists predict that all Arctic ice will have disappeared by late this century. There are also fears that the melting Arctic tundra will release trapped organic matter that, upon oxi-dation, will produce further quantities of greenhouse gases.

Certain factors have kept carbon dioxide concentrations in check. Plants continue to remove carbon dioxide from the air during photosynthesis, and replace it with oxygen. How-ever, increasing production of carbon dioxide, due to the burning of fossil fuels and intensive farming practices, is increasingly outstripping its removal by plants. To make matters worse deforestation, urbanization and desertifica-tion are constantly diminishing the mass of plants able to photosynthesize. Some experts fear a runaway greenhouse effect in which the factors causing global warming finally swamp the factors that prevent it. It has been suggested that vast forest planting schemes should be undertaken, but sci-entists are not certain how successful this would be. They warn that the biosphere cannot suddenly deal with all the carbon released from ancient deposits of coal, oil and gas.They further warn that to plant trees with dark leaves and bark, in otherwise snowy or bright areas (such as Siberia),

would effectively darken the Earth s surface causing more heat to be absorbed, thus contributing to global warming.In addition, plants themselves emit carbon dioxide due to respiration; during periods of darkness, plants would cause an overall increase in the carbon dioxide load.

This carbon dioxide theory of climate change has been known for decades. For many years policy makers preferred to interpret the warnings as the ramblings of environmen-talist cranks. However, over the last 20 years, the miserable possibility that they might have been half correct has dawned. Fears filtered upwards as extreme temperatures,increased precipitation, drought and frequent hurricanes provided records that were too soon broken. International policy makers began to talk about talking.

In 1992, at the Earth Summit in Rio de Janeiro, the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) was opened for signature. It offered a global strategy on climate change, detailing concerns about the melting of the polar ice caps and rising sea levels. In 1997the Kyoto Protocol was established, promoting international cooperation towards more climate-friendly policies and tech-nologies. It set up targets and timetables for a worldwide reduction of carbon-based gas emissions by an average of 5.2% below 1990 levels during the 5-year period 2008-2012,with various nations adopting different targets: 6% for Ja-pan, 7% for the US and 8% for the EU. Other nations, such as Russia and the Ukraine, agreed to stabilize at 1990 levels.Environmentalists demanded that these reductions were inadequate and that cuts of 60-80% were required - and re-quired immediately. For the Protocol to have effect, it had to be ratified by 55 parties to the Climate Change Conven-tion, including at least some industrialized countries.

From November 13-23 2000, representatives of 180 coun-tries gathered in The Hague for a 2-week international meet-ing on climate change, i.e., the Sixth Session of the Conference of the Parties to the Convention, or COP6. Its aim was to encourage the various countries to accept the terms of the Kyoto Protocol and so commit to combat climate change.By the start of the conference, most governments had not ratified the Protocol, preferring to wait until the conference for agreement on how the Protocol could work in practice.The Hague conference was seen as a make or break oppor-tunity for global action on climate change. It was hoped that the conference would tie up loose ends, that developing country delegations would be reassured of support for their efforts, and that all parties would subsequently launch or

continue with processes leading to reduced emissions. Po-litical agreements were needed. The conference, which had always promised to be politically difficult and technically complex, failed to find any agreement and, in line with en-vironmentalist predictions, finally collapsed. The EU and the US remained at loggerheads. Analysis of The Hague debate is a journey into the absurd. It would be truly humorous if the situation were not so desperate. Whilst the climate seemed to be undergoing noticeable changes for the worst in parts of Europe, conference delegates fought to argue their way out of previous commitments, seemingly more obsessed with the minutiae of environmental semantics than the environmen

Without the cooperation of the US, which accounts for around a quarter of the world s total output of carbon diox-ide, there was never much likelihood of success. Most de-veloped countries were concerned that a transition to a low-emission economy would damage competitiveness. The US Senate had previously passed a resolution that US ratifi-cation of the Kyoto Protocol would be conditional upon as-surances that US competitiveness would not be harmed. In this respect, the US was backed by Canada, Australia, New Zealand and Japan (the so-called Umbrella Group), as well as oil companies, China, and the Opec nations, who feared reduced oil exports. The countries of the Umbrella Group came to the conference with schemes that would spare them from actually reducing industrial carbon emissions. Instead they called for new forests and crops at home, and the aid-ing of forestation projects abroad, to be counted as carbon credits. The possibility of using trees and crops as carbon sinks was outlined in the Kyoto Protocol. The US, Canada and Japan suggested additional activities to avoid reduc-ing actual emissions, including urban greening, and the de-velopment of crops specifically engineered to soak up carbon dioxide. However, the idea of carbon sinks did not go down well with the EU, many of the developing countries (G77), and most non-governmental agencies. They argued that planting trees alone could not save the global climate, and called for real domestic cuts in emissions. The situation worsened when it became obvious that the US was seeking not only to plant new forests to gain carbon credits , but also to be allowed to gain credits for the amount of carbon soaked up by existing forests and farmlands. The EU imme-diately rejected this proposal. The US compromised by sug-gesting that all states should be allowed to count, as credits, some of the carbon dioxide their existing forests absorb. The EU rejected the compromise, arguing that if the US propos-als were to be adopted, they would allow for an 8-9% in-crease over 1990 emissions. The Swedish Environment Minister, pointed out that Sweden and Finland, Europe s most forested countries, would, under such a scheme, be able to increase their emissions by 30-40%. Japan and Canada added to the general feeling of circus by calling for rules that would allow them to avoid counting increased emis-sions from cutting down forests, but to count the carbon cred-its if the deforested areas were replanted. At best this would encourage the destruction of established mixed forests and their replacement by monoculture plantations.

A number of other flexible mechanisms lurking within the Kyoto agreement allowed industrialized countries to avoid domestic action by acquiring emission credits abroad. Joint Implementation would allow projects between devel-oped countries, whereby one country would contribute to the reduction of emissions in another, and so gain emissions credits. This included assistance with the development of nuclear power plants instead of power plants using fossil fuels, and was therefore unpopular with environmentalists.

A Clean Development Mechanism would also allow for simi-lar projects between developed and developing countries, enabling the developed country to claim emission credits.

The US called for the conference to accept Carbon Trad-ing mechanisms, also outlined in the Protocol. International Emissions Trading would allow developed countries exceed-ing their emissions reductions target to sell their surplus carbon credits to countries unable to meet their commit-ments. In this way richer, developed countries could avoid domestic reductions each year by buying tonnes of carbon credits from countries like Russia, who produce less carbon dioxide than their Kyoto targets, due to the collapse of their economies. The EU was not happy with carbon trading.

By the end of the conference there had been no agree-ment; the delegates went home, making way for the confer-ence booked for the following week. Just in case there had been an agreement, Japan and Russia had opposed binding commitments. It was suggested that countries that failed to fulfil their obligations would able to deduct excess emissions from the next period budget, without further sanctions. There would have been no guarantees anyway.

So, where to now? It is really up to the US. The Ameri-can public has a very high level of environmental aware-ness, and states such as California have taken pioneering environmental initiatives. But Washington, D.C. is guided by the interests of industry and the oil companies. President-elect Bush will probably recommend withdrawal from the Kyoto agreement. It is rumoured that he does not believe in global warming anyway. But then neither do some of the world s largest companies including Exxon (which does not recognize climate change), Texaco and DuPont. This is of course all for the best, because if these guys did believe in global warming, they would have to feel very bad about their behaviour over the last few years. The climate change talks resume in Bonn in May 2001, when all will be focused on persuading the US - if it is there - and its allies to alter their position. If the Americans do pull out of the fray there will be no point in carrying on.

Sadly, at the moment nothing is making the situation better. The shocking conclusion must be that no international group of politicians or policy makers has the situation un-

der control. We have no global strategy to combat climate change and no superhero to save the planet .

So what can WE do?

It seems that we have the following options: resigna-tion, protest or prayer. The British are good at all these things. We are also good at weather. We get a lot of it being where we are. We have the Gulf Stream, the tail end of hurricanes and a continuum of weather fronts rippling across the At-lantic. We have blizzards, gales, droughts and fog - some-times all in the same day. We discuss the weather, moan about the weather, celebrate the weather and have a wealth of customs and folklore that reveal our obsession with the weather. But we have had some very extreme weather here in the last few weeks and we are quite worn out by it. In November the ancient Roman city of York was barely saved from the worst floods and storms since 1625. The climate over the UK has definitely altered and we have all noticed it. We have had ferocious storms, devastating winds, tor-rential rains and floods, the like of which no one can remem-ber. Is this all part of the package that the Doomsday ecologists predicted?

A recent bout of extreme weather hit the UK on Sun-day, November 5th. People were warned to stay inside as the weather front, casually referred to as Armageddon, hit the UK. It was Guy Fawkes night, and as stalwart British patriots were attempting to light bonfires and burn effigies of the man who tried to blow up the Houses of Parliament, I drove up the valley through the torrential rain and flash floods to the Chilgove Bonfire party. The local kids were throwing diesel onto a giant pile of drenched wood and hay in an attempt to set it alight. The local elders were huddled in the White Horse Inn, debating the possibility of lighting aerial fireworks in gale-force winds. We decided against it. The kids did manage to get the bonfire started and we watched the flames leap up and turn to steam as the dewpond outside turned into a lake and waves lapped over the burning hay.

By the following day the gales had decreased, but the trouble had just begun. That amount of water, falling on the Chalky South Downs, had nowhere to go other than down-hill. The rain stopped but the water table rose and kept on rising until it was 5 meters above normal and therefore above ground level. This meant that the valley was officially un-der water. Fresh water springs burst up through the floor in people s houses, through the surface of the road causing potholes and through the cellar of the White Horse Inn. Pumping simply recycled the water out of the bar into the dewpond and back into the cellar. The road leading to Chilgrove became the bed of a torrential river, all 3 miles of it. For a couple of days it was still possible to drive through it, although it took half an hour to do so. That gives you a lot of time to think - particularly about water.

This was not a river bursting its banks, or even rising sea levels. This was so much water that it was taller than the land. That throws a whole new light on the torrential rain aspects of global warming. What can you do with that much water? The mind strays into the realms of the surreal. What if every man, woman and child each owned 3 buckets of water - would that help? What if the people fortunate enough to be on mains drainage flushed their buckets down the toi-let? What if those people discussing climate change actually did something to stop it? Now that s really surreal.

The water levels have now started to fall, and the roads have re-opened, although experts are warning that we ve seen nothing yet. People are thinking of other things, as they do. Getting on with their lives assuming that superior minds somewhere will save the day. I have heard that US agricul-tural scientists are investigating the possibility of feeding sheep, pigs and cows special anti-flatulence diets to reduce levels of methane. Now that makes my 3-bucket plan sound really credible.

哪个雅思培训机构最好

哪个雅思培训机构最好? 哪个雅思培训班好?哪个雅思培训机构最好这应该是广大考雅思们最关注的问题。每次看到都是感触良多,我想到大家选择雅思培训学校的心情的时候,就真的想借给每位雅思考生一双慧眼,让他们把这些培训学校都看的清清楚楚、明明白白。 雅思考试费用不菲,培训价格更高,简直可以说高的离谱,学费几千甚至上万的雅思培训学校比比皆是。那如何选择雅思培训学校呢?我总结了以下几点注意事项,希望对大家有帮助。 一、雅思培训机构的口碑 俗话说得好:金杯,银杯,不如老百姓的口碑!选择雅思培训机构之前一定要多听取周围参加过培训同学的意见,做到心中有数。而对于通过网络搜索学校好坏的同学,一定要谨慎,慎重选择,因为网络上的职业枪手无以计数。 二、学校的师资 目前国内有很多知名雅思培训机构,其中不乏连锁或者加盟的,多数培训学校的老师都是本土化,如果哪家学校的宣传上给老师的包装冠以“北京”,“著名”,“学者”之类的名师,大家可要留意了,很多都是假的。其次老师的稳定性,如果学校的授课老师不断变换,对培训效果就会无法保障,报培训班之前一定要了解授课老师情况,有

的学校虽然打出了什么外教或者是名师的招牌,其实这些老师甚至连从业资格都没有这样我们怎么期待他们能给我带来英语能力的提高! 三、雅思学校课程设置 专业的雅思学校会根据学生不同英语基础开设课程,例如长期班、基础班、提高班、强化班等。这里建议大家最好选择一对一的雅思课程,在教学上会更有针对性,学习效果也显著。如果基础不同,采取一勺烩的做法,那你需要敬而远之。 四、能为学员提供相关服务 一个专业的雅思培训学校,会为学员提供很多的专业服务。例如:雅思写作批改,雅思口语交流机会,学前、学中、学后的模考等等。如果能提供这些服务并贯穿整个雅思学习的过程,那你可以优先选择了! 作为中国在线英语培训的领先者,引入欧美授课新理念,一直以来都认真聆听学员的心声,专注于提高学员的英语口语能力,使之成为最高性价比抉择的首选出国前英语雅思培训机构。易格英语利用专门的音频视频软件,通过在线学习的形式为学员提供一对一的专业辅导。他们最大的特色就是英美专业外教,一对一辅导以及免费试听。因为是在线培训的方式,所以培训不受时间、地点的限制,因为省去了场地和往返的费用,真正做到为每位学员节省每一分钱。全国官

上海雅思培训行业分析报告 ——专业解读上海雅思培训怎么选?

上海雅思培训行业分析报告 ——上海雅思培训机构怎么选? 随着雅思考试的持续火热,各种线上线下培训也余温不减。市面上的雅思培训机构被“吹”得天花乱坠,考生也被弄得晕头转向。诚然,不同的考生选择雅思培训机构关注的重点不一样,但是有四点是必须要看的。另外,相对于这四个必看点,考生容易陷入的一些误区,在此也为大家列出,以供参考。 第一,看口碑不看品牌 品牌的响亮很大程度在于机构广告费用的投入,及公司宣传策略的选择。大家在衡量一个机构质量的同时,不要仅凭平日里的印象进行选择,最好能先咨询参加过相关机构培训的朋友或同学,由他们进行推荐或者听取他们的建议。 部分知名度较高的培训机构内部培训效果难以评判,据一些参加过相关机构培训的考生反应,其培训效果与预期落差很大。 2 / 22

3 / 22 第二,看试听不看吹捧 考生在决定报考哪个培训机构前,一定要预约一次免费试听课。不要只听顾问老师的“吹捧”。通过试听,可以了解到这个机构老师上课的大致水平,从而对机构的教学实力做出评估。但是老师的教学水平千差万别,大家还需要对机构老师的整体水平做了解。如有条件还可以对相应授课教师做进一步的打听。 师资力量是一个机构培训实力的根本保证。大家需要从老师的教育背景、教学经验两方面去考察。有海外留学背景和国内知名院校背景相关专业的最好。另外,需要有三年及以上教学经验,且多次参加雅思考试并有高分学员培养经典案例的老师。 第三,看课程不看高分 课程设置是否全面,即有没有适合自己的 课程非常重要,切忌只看高分学员。高分学员的产生是有其自身英语基础的。一般考生要获取高分必须在适合自

雅思培训费用是多少呢

雅思培训费用是多少呢? 近年来,杭州的英语培训机构如雨后春笋,随之而来的是雅思培训班的价钱也就众说纷纭了,但是实话实说,价钱跟教学质量还是成正比的。所以大家在选择的时候不要盲目去看价格。下面小编就以杭州新航道https://www.sodocs.net/doc/0912838054.html,为例,为大家介绍一下雅思培训费用是多少,大家可以了解一下。 1.雅思培训费用是根据班型来定的。班级主要分为大班、小班和一对一,相信大家也肯定知道,人数越多的话费用也会越低一点。基础比较好的学生大多数会选择大班进行强化,基础一般的话选择小班的比较多,当然也有基础很好,但是想冲刺更高分的也会选择小班进行学习。一对一的话一般是想要快速提高的学生选择的比较多,或者基础不是很好的,因为一对一的学习模式是比较有针对性的。所以班级人数越少价格相对就越贵。 2.雅思培训班费用是根据基础来定的。因为每个人的基础都有不同的,所以有的人需要上入门,有的人需要上强化。有的考生基础不是很好,但是需要有一定的成绩来使自己有资格去申请学校,所以这种情况下只能通过基础的课程使自己一点点提高。所以入门级的课程和强化段的课程费用也是不同的。基础越好费用就会越低。 3.雅思培训班费用是根据目标分数来定的。大家每个人的目标都不同,申请的学校不同,所以对于成绩的要求也是不同的,这时候就会有6分班、6.5分班、7分等的区别。所以目标分不同,班级不同,费用也就不同了。基础越差,要求的分数越高,那么价格就会贵一点。 4.雅思培训班费用是根据课时来定的。这个是最直观的一点。有的课程时间是200个课程和课程时间100个课时的费用也肯定是不一样的。因为学生的基础不同,所以要根据自己的基础来选择的,基础弱一点的课时相对会久一点,那么价格也会相对高一点。

雅思英语培训班是否需要报名

雅思英语培训班是否需要报名? 雅思考试是出国留学生必不可少的一重要科目,而且想要证明自己英语情况,很多成年人也用英语来测验,造成雅思英语培训班日益火爆,那雅思英语培训班还需要报名吗? 为解决大家的困惑,哒哒英语小编为大家整理了有关雅思英语培训班的相关信息,快来学习一下吧! 报考雅思的考生每年都在增长,所以雅思培训班应运而生。根据考生多样化的需求,雅思培训班开设了不同的班型、课程。然而针对雅思培训市场现象,大家都褒贬不一,社会上对于是否报名雅思培训班有不同的看法。 一、雅思培训班市场现象 我们先来说一说雅思培训班市场现象。举一个例子,今年23岁的李文倩毕业于上海复旦,去年暑假她却像复习高考一样为雅思考试做着准备GRE;为

了进一步提高自己的英语能力,李文倩报名参加了在学校附近的一个雅思培训班,于是每天的生活不像别人一样吃喝玩乐,而是背单词,做没完没了的训练题,埋头苦读于题海。 像李文倩一样,还有很多人为了完成出国留学的目标,大部分都参加过托福或雅思英语培训课。但是这些培训课程主要还是向考生介绍考试形式,以及针对不同类型题目的解题技巧。以前李文倩在做雅思阅读的时候总是会一口气从头读到尾,从不做标记。但是,上了雅思培训课之后,她掌握一些更高明的考试技巧,通过标注关键词快速找到答案。这样子尝试之后答题效率和准确性果然有所提高。 但是仍然会有考生即使掌握了考试技巧,却不能取得满意的成绩。张伟名曾经参加过的雅思培训班的目标保6争7,但是最后她取得的分数却并不理想,只有5.5分。 二、学校里的老师怎么看待雅思培训班教学 今年45岁的吴霞是清华大学的一名语言老师,提到现在市面上的雅思培训班之类的培训课程,她明确表示:现在这些培训课程大部分都是以传授考试技巧为主,但是大幅度提分仍然取决于学生整体的语言水平。掌握考试技巧只能
