1. Changes in Climate and Imminent Effects
There is evidence of global warming and climatic
change seen in the history of time which has impaled many
kinds of research and reports on climate change. Thus, there is a
global scientific organization that is tasked with the assessment
of emerging information on climate change (Intergovernmental
Panel on Climate Change, 2015). This organization is known as
the Intergovernmental Panel on Climatic Change (IPCC). The
group is the most dependable source of impartial facts on the
subject of climate variation. Additionally, the IPCC is able to
detail long-term and short-term effects of climate change
inclusive of the specific regions to be affected. Thus, an insight
into some environmental changes discussed by IPCC is sought
and discussed below.
Temperature Changes
The temperature ranges are expected to change further in the
future as projected the climate models. This is attributed to the
effects of global warming that are progressively being
witnessed. The key global changes that are related to
temperature are as follows. First, by 2100 surges in average
universal temperatures are probable to be ranging between 0.5°F
to 8.6°F with an expected rise of a minimum of 2.7°F for all
situations (Hawkins & Sutton, 2016). This excludes the one
demonstrating the greenhouse gas emissions which is the most
belligerent. Similarly, ground-level atmospheric temperatures
are anticipated to remain to warm more promptly above land
than water bodies. This thus shows that most areas are expected
to see greater temperature rises than the total average.
A rise in Sea Level
Increase in temperatures leads to sea level rise by dissolving

2. mountain glaciers and hoarfrost, intensifying ocean water and
instigating parts of the Antarctic ice pieces and Greenland to
dissolve or stream into the sea. Research anticipates worldwide
sea level to increase by an additional 1 to 4 feet with an
improbability range of 0.66 to 6.6 feet by the year
2100 (Mengel et al., 2016). The influence of thermal increase,
frost caps, and trifling glaciers to the ocean level rise are
comparatively well calculated. Thus, by the end of this century,
1.2 to 8 inches of sea level rise will be accounted for by
vicissitudes in ice sheets that are currently being experienced.
Acidification of the Oceans
The continuous increase of emission of Carbon (IV) oxide will
subsequently result to increase in ocean acidification. The
global surface of the pH of the ocean is also projected to
decrease at a rate of 0.14 and 0.35 over the 21st
century (Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change, 2015).
Ocean acidification therefore harmfully distresses many aquatic
species, including corals, shellfish, planktons, and mollusks. As
a result of the acidification, the disposal of calcium carbonate
will drop which is a crucial component for the exoskeleton of
marine organisms (Seijo & Villanueva , 2018). Further, the
rates of coral calcification are proposed to reduce by over 30%
in the event of a doubled concentration of atmospheric CO2.
Thus, by 2050 both global warming and ocean acidification
might decline the growth of by approximately 50%.
Policy Recommendations That Address Mitigation and
Adaptation
The New Climate Commission has made various
recommendations that address the issue of mitigation and
adaptation as they relate to climate change. First, the
Commission proposes that all cities globally should hasten low-
carbon manufacturing strategies and implement these strategies

3. by 2020 (Economy, 2014). These policies should encompass
aspects such as using renewable energy, effective waste
management and use of low-emission and non-motorized means
of transport. Additionally, the commission suggests that
countries need to guarantee new infrastructure is nonhazardous
to the environment (Economy, 2014). The national
infrastructure plans and policies should adhere to principles of
climate threat and climate aims during the allocation of public
and private finance set up for innovation. Thus, full
implementation of the recommendations made by the
commission could see reductions in emissions by 2030 and
therefore keep global warming under 2°C.
