This is in distinction to adaptation to global warming , which involves taking action to minimise the effects of global warming. Scientific opinion on climate change Scientific consensus on global warming , together with the precautionary principle and the fear of non linear climate transitions, is leading to increased effort to develop new technologies and sciences and carefully manage others in an attempt to mitigate global warming.

  1. Global warming potential

    Global warming potential GWP is a measure of how much a given mass of greenhouse gas is estimated to contribute to global warming . It is a relative scale which compares the gas in question to that of the same mass of carbon dioxide whose GWP is by convention equal to 1 . A GWP is calculated over a specific time interval and this time interval must be stated whenever a GWP is quoted or else the value is meaningless. The substances subject to restrictions under the Kyoto protocol either are rapidly increasing their concentrations in Earth s atmosphere or have a large GWP. The GWP depends on the following factors the absorption of infrared radiation by a given species the spectral location of its absorbing wavelengths the atmospheric lifetime of the species Thus, a high GWP correlates with a large ... the impact of human activities on global climate change .
