Extractions: Considerable uncertainty exists about climate change responses to greenhouse gas emissions. This is due to incomplete understanding of 1) the interactive feedback mechanisms between clouds, oceans, and polar ice, which govern the responses; and 2) the size and nature of the sources and sinks of the greenhouse gases. Radiative forcing - a parameter used to describe the perturbation of the heat balance in a simplified model of the earth-atmosphere system - involves less complexity and is used by atmospheric scientists to make assessments of the relative impacts of different gases. Global warming potentials (GWPs) were developed to provide a simplified means of describing the relative ability of each greenhouse gas emission to affect future radiative forcing and thereby the global climate. GWPs relative to carbon dioxide were reported in the first international scientific assessment of the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC, 1990) and have been updated in subsequent reports (IPCC, 1992, 1994, 1995). The extent to which a greenhouse gas directly contributes to radiative forcing - and hence to calculated global warming - depends on the quantity of gas emitted, the elapsed time before it is purged from the atmosphere, and the infrared energy absorption properties of the gas. The GWP index encompasses the latter two properties.

What is Idaho doing to address climate change? Related Web Sites On May 16, 2007, Governor Otter issued Executive Order 2007-05 , which directed the Department of Environmental Quality to: What are greenhouse gases? Gases that trap heat in the atmosphere are often called greenhouse gases. Some greenhouse gases such as carbon dioxide occur naturally and are emitted to the atmosphere both through natural processes and human activities. Other greenhouse gases (e.g., fluorinated gases) are created and emitted solely through human activities. The principal greenhouse gases that enter the atmosphere because of human activities are: Carbon dioxide enters the atmosphere through the burning of fossil fuels (oil, natural gas, and coal), solid waste, trees and wood products, and also as a result of other chemical reactions (e.g., manufacture of cement). Carbon dioxide is also removed from the atmosphere (or "sequestered") when it is absorbed by plants as part of the biological carbon cycle. About 75% of all greenhouse gases emitted globally are CO

The summary report is a 21 page document summarising a four volume report yet to be released. It is the work of over 1200 scientific authors and over 2500 scientific reviewers from over 130 countries. The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) was established by the World Meteorological Organization (WMO) and the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) in 1988 to assess on a comprehensive, objective, open and transparent basis the scientific, technical and socio-economic information relevant to understanding the scientific basis of risk of human-induced climate change, its potential impacts and options for adaptation and mitigation. The IPCC does not carry out research nor does it monitor climate related data or other relevant parameters. It bases its assessment mainly on peer reviewed and published scientific/technical literature. The numbers and data in the report are horrifying.
