keep the increase temperature below 2 degrees.
cut greenhouse emissions by 80 percent by 2050.
INVEST € 115 billion a year to defend ourselves from climate chaos.
are the three poles in the draft of the Treaty of Copenhagen that the environmental groups around the world have prepared as a contribution to world climate conference to be held in December in Copenaghen.Per prevent the thermometer rises to three, four, maybe 6 degrees above the temperature, with the swing of a degree, has remained constant since the first human being planted a seed in the ground, you have to put the world on a diet, make him use less carbon and renewable energy. But this diet may not be the same for all: we must take into account the starting conditions and possibilities each paese.Ai industrialized countries provides remedies Zcap (Zero Carbon Action Plan) which means fly quickly to the zero emissions goal: cut emissions by 40 percent by 2020 and 95 percent by 2050. For non-industrialized countries (but Singapore, South Korea and Saudi Arabia on the basis of per capita income should go in the list of industrialized nations), the landslide is slower and you bet on lcap (Low Carbon Action Plan), ie the low greenhouse emissions With more than 84 percent below 1990 levels by 2020 and less than 51 per cent compared to 1990 levels by 2050. To all this must be added the reduction of 75 percent by 2020 deforestation, which causes a fifth of greenhouse gas emissions globali.La combination of these treatments, with different but convergent, would lead to a scenario in which greenhouse emissions - after reaching its peak between 2013 and 2017 - will return to 1990 levels in 2020 and in 2050 drop 80 percent as recommended by the IPCC scientists, the task force set up by climate scientists from the United Nations, to avoid climate disaster. "While in Bonn talks are progressing very slowly, a veritable UN environmentalist, with experts from all parts of the world has compiled a first draft of a treaty, with the ambition to become a reference for the agreement on climate change Copenhagen, "says Kim Carstensen, head of WWF's climate campaign. "We started from the recognition of the duty of fairness, but also by the fact that in the atmosphere after 200 years of pollution and use of fossil fuels by industrialized countries, space is limited. Certain developed countries must be the first to cut emissions, but this will not be enough to avert the most catastrophic scenarios. With the financial and technological support of the industrialized world but you can make a real technological leap that will allow developing countries to grow in a sustainable manner ".
How to help the earth (and us)? We must not remain with our hands and hope that others, political or industrial and pious souls, solve the problem of the environment. In our small we can make a huge hand in this animated being our host and each day offers us all the wondrous possibilities and gives us life. Point one: energy. Our homes consume about 35% of energy produced and rank first in the ranking of consumption. What to eat? Water, electricity, gas, but also paper, detergents, products for the furniture, dishes, clothes and so on. We restrict, for now, the primary sources of our investigation. E 'possible to limit consumption considerably by simply being careful. I brush my teeth and while running the water, pull the toilet and use the equivalent amount at its disposal an inhabitant of Sudan in an entire day, wash dishes and cheerfully the fountain remains aperta.Oppure I make a cake and use three appliances, enter a room and lit up the stage as St. Paul for the final cup, and turn off electrical appliances left on standby (I leave the little light turned red), not knowing that in 100 euro bills so I spend 5-7 'without doing anything. Or are we warming "ball" because like 'can I turn for home on January 8, T-shirt while out there' the storm. If we consider what quantity and how much detergent is used for hygiene and cleaning ... (By the way you use gloves if you do not want to get annoying allergies, detergents are full of components Recognized chemical skin irritants capable of destroying our natural defenses). That 's just a small part of delegated actions we can put in place to help us ...
