The human beings are facing many global changes population Climate changes Global warming Pollution Health resource use Transportation sea ice loss & sea-level rise biological diversity

Two main global changes Climate changes -greenhouse gas emissions -pollution - Water management Global warming -global dimming -temperature increases -weather pattern changes

The history of global changes In 1980, the World Climate Research Program (WCRP) In 1987, the International Geosphere-Biosphere Program(IGBP) In 2001, in Amsterdam, the landmark science of conference of IGBP, WCRP, IHDP In 2012, in London, another major science conference, Planet Under Pressure: new knowledge towards solutions.

The causes of global changes solar output plate tectonics Volcanism proliferation and abatement of life meteorite impact resource depletion changes in Earth’s orbit

The physical evidence for global changes -The advent of agriculture (10000 years ago) - industrial revolution (1750) - Haber-Bosch process (1909) population more than doubled ( ) - human population - urban population & rural population Chemical composition of the atmosphere Greenhouse gases in increasing fast!!!

How global changes influence the society in variety of areas Globalization global integration global financial crisis

Predict the future environmental development global warming effect Carbon dioxide Pollution damage Dirty bombs Hydrogen fuel cells for cars nuclear power Water

Effective suggestion for current and future environmental management and protection An overall, comprehensive, internally consistent strategy for stewardship of the Earth system is required
