The uncertainty of climate change because of global warming is much greater than previously thought, and as a result, policymakers should adopt a robust, adaptive-decision strategy to cope with potential consequences, researchers at the University of Illinois say.
There is uncertainty about what monetary value to assign to the costs and benefits of various policies to reduce global warming. And yet the influence of uncertainty in policymaker's decisions is ignored in most studies of the issue. The authors try to explicitly incorporate the effect of uncertainty in the choice of global warming abatement policies. The approach they develop draws on the emerging literature on investment under uncertainty - in particular, that on the option-valuation approach. Their numerical applications focus on the Cline's (1992) analysis of global warming, but it may be applied to a range of global warming analyses. First, they assess whether it is optimal to implement Cline's strategy of limiting global warming today, or whether it should be postponed, and for how long. Then, they identify the optimal policy to be implemented today for different levels of uncertainty about the costs and benefits of policies to reduce global warming.
According to multiple studies, less than 3 of scientists do not believe in global warming.
Enviornmental issues are the issues or bad effects that arise out of human activities on the environment.The main environmental issues of the present days are the global warming and the felling down of trees.This is affecting us adversely and we must take necessary and immediate steps to stop it.
Rising global temperatures are causing polar ice to melt, contributing to sea level rise. It is estimated that sea levels could rise by 1-3 feet by the end of the century due to global warming, but the exact amount and timing depend on various factors and uncertainties in climate models.

Title: "Understanding and Addressing Climate Change: Impact of Global Warming" Slide 1: "Defining Climate Change and Global Warming" Climate change refers to long-term changes in temperature, precipitation, and other atmospheric conditions on Earth. Global warming specifically refers to the ongoing rise in average global temperatures due to human activities like burning fossil fuels and deforestation. Slide 2: "Causes of Climate Change" Human activities, such as burning fossil fuels, deforestation, and industrial processes, release greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide into the atmosphere. These gases trap heat from the sun, leading to a warming effect on the planet. Slide 3: "Impacts of Global Warming" Global warming leads to a variety of impacts, including more frequent and severe natural disasters, rising sea levels, loss of biodiversity, and disruptions in agriculture and food supply chains. These changes pose significant threats to ecosystems, economies, and human health.

The overwhelming consensus among climate scientists is that global warming is real and primarily caused by human activities. While there may be a small minority of scientists who question the extent or causes of global warming, the consensus and evidence supporting the reality of climate change are robust.
