Global warming, the phenomenon of
increasing average air temperatures near
the surface of Earth over
the past one to two centuries. Climate scientists have since the mid-20th
century gathered detailed observations of various weather phenomena
(such as temperatures, precipitation,
and storms) and of related influences on climate (such as ocean currents and
the atmosphere’s chemical composition). These data indicate that Earth’s
climate has changed over almost every conceivable timescale since the beginning
of geologic time and that the influence of human activities since at
least the beginning of the Industrial
Revolution has been deeply woven into the very fabric of climate change.

GLOBAL WARMING CONGRESS 2020
About Conference
We invite all the participants across the world to attend the International Conference on Global Warming and Natural Disasters during June 01-02, 2020 Sydney, Australia. The theme of the conference is “Alarming Signs of Global Warming!! Preventive solutions towards climate catastrophe” and to encourage young minds and their research abilities by providing an opportunity to meet the experts in the field of Global Warming and Natural Disasters. Global Warming Congress 2020.
Global warming is the defined as gradual increase in the average temperature of the Earth's atmosphere due to change in the Earth’s climate. The increased volumes of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases released by the burning of fossil fuels, land clearing, agriculture, and other human activities, are believed to be the primary sources of the global warming. Changes resulting from global warming may include rising sea levels due to the melting of the polar ice caps, increase in occurrence and severity of storms and other severe weather events leading to natural calamities and disasters. A dangerous atmospheric deviation, be that as it may, is what might as well be called a nursery with high proficiency intelligent glass introduced the wrong path around.
Natural Disasters deals with several features of the assessment of hazard and risk of land sliding. This article presents a summary review and a classification of the main approaches that have been developed world-wide. The first step is the part between qualitative and quantitative methods. The first group is mainly based on the site-specific experience of experts with the susceptibility hazard determined directly in the field or by combining different index maps. The approaches of the second group are formally more rigorous. It is possible to distinguish between statistical analyses and deterministic methods that involve the analysis of specific sites or slopes based on geo-engineering models.
Why to attend Global Warming Congress 2020?
Global Warming Congress 2020 anticipates hundreds of delegates including international keynote lectures and oral presentations by renowned speakers and poster presentations by students, Exhibitions and delegates all around the world which will craft a platform for global promotion and effective development in this field. It provides international networking and opportunities for collaborations with worldwide companies and industries Global Warming Meets.
This global event will be an excellent opportunity for the Global Warming Scientists and other professionals. We are anticipating around 100+ speakers and over 200 delegates for this esteemed congress. Global Warming Congress 2020.

With the global population projected to increase by nearly 3 billion people by midcentury, demand for food—as well as the land and energy required to produce it—is to set to soar.
If the world doesn’t figure out ways to cultivate far more food on less land, we’ll need to covert nearly two Indias’ worth of forests, grasslands, and other ecosystems to agricultural fields, according to a new study led by World Resources Institute researchers. That, in turn, would increase annual emissions by 15 billion tons of carbon dioxide and equivalent gases—far exceeding the 4 billion tons permissible under models that hold global warming below 2 ˚C.
The report, issued by the World Bank and United Nations, found that global food needs will expand 50% overall by 2050, while demand for animal-based products like meat, milk, and eggs will swell by nearly 70%. Producing those 7,400 trillion additional calories without achieving yield gains at a faster rate than we've pulled off in the past would require converting nearly 600 million hectares (almost 1.5 billion acres) of additional land to agricultural use.
The researchers highlighted a list of 22 objectives and 10 specific technologies that could help boost food production while keeping the lid on climate pollution.
Some of the broad goals include reducing food loss and waste; planting more frequently on existing cropland; conserving peatlands, which release huge amounts of carbon dioxide when converted to farmland; reducing methane emissions from livestock, which occur mainly in the form of cow burps; and decreasing climate pollution from fertilizers, which account for nearly 20% of agricultural emissions.
The innovations that could help achieve these aims include:
- Using genome editing tools like CRISPR to unlock traits that boost yields.
- Shifting to plant-based meat replacements like products from Impossible Foods and Beyond Meat.
- Applying nontoxic spray-on films and other technologies that can extend the shelf life of foods, such as those created by Apeel Sciences. (See “Reinventing rice for a world transformed by climate change.”)
- Switching to types of rice that reduce the level of methane production in paddies.
- Using compounds that prevent fertilizer from converting soil microbes into highly potent nitrous oxide.
- Feeding supplements to livestock that can cut their methane emissions, such as a product developed by Dutch conglomerate DSM (see “Seaweed could make cows burp less methane and cut their carbon hoofprint”).
- Developing varieties of crops that absorb more nitrogen.
- Employing algae-based fish feeds that could ease pressure to use wild fish as feed for farmed fish.
- Using solar power to produce the hydrogen in nitrogen-based fertilizers.
- Relying more on high-yield varieties of oil palm trees, which produce a widely used oil that has helped drive deforestation.
The conclusions highlight a rift in the conception of sustainable agriculture, which for many has meant small, local farms that spurn genetic modifications and employ traditional or organic practices that generally produce significantly lower yields. But from a climate perspective, we need to figure out ways to produce as much food as possible on the same amount of cropland, if not significantly less. Throughout history, achieving that goal has required increasingly sophisticated farming technologies. Continuing to feed a swelling population without cranking up temperatures will clearly demand more of the same.
