This document discusses international approaches to addressing global warming. It outlines agreements made at Rio de Janeiro in 1992, Kyoto in 1997, and COP21 in Paris in 2015 to establish frameworks and commitments around reducing carbon emissions and mitigating climate change. The conclusions emphasize that while agreements are important, real action and solutions will require global cooperation to respect the planet and work towards a healthy environment for future generations.

Abstract:
This writing is going to be about international approaches against global warming. The
causes and the effects of global warming are also mentioned in this text. The main idea of this
writing is to be aware of what happens to our environment, and what we need to as the future
generation of our planet Earth. We also need to know what is happening globally to prevent
global warming.
Introduction:
Humans have been polluting our Earth from the beginning of our creation. Since 1800 humans
have polluted our atmosphere by releasing different kind of toxic gases to our environment.
Those gases include notably carbon dioxide, methane, and chlorofluorocarbons (CFCs), which
absorb the radiation of the Earth that can lead warming to the surface of our planet. At the
molecular level, the most potent gasses are CFCs in the greenhouse house, but still carbon
dioxide CO2 is the most dangerous gas that is released every day by different ways. Those ways

3. that carbon dioxide is released are very simple daily methods that we do. Burning something is
one method of releasing carbon dioxide. The great factories in different places in the world that
produce different kinds of products, for every category in our life are polluting our atmosphere
or in other word they poison the air that we breath, by releasing a big amount of carbon
dioxide to the air. Beside our air the rivers, lakes and every other water sources are also
polluted by putting the trashes and toxic wastes in those sources. The most dangerous factories
that have big side effects on our environment are those that produce chemicals and also atomic
fields are very dangerous since they throw the most kind of toxic waste into our water sources
like river and lakes, beside that they also release a big amount of carbon dioxide to our air.
Specialized scientist are concerned and also worry about these changes in our atmosphere, and
they suggest that under these conditions that happens to our planet the Earth's surface will get
warmer day by day on average, in higher latitudes the temperature is going to increase higher
than any other locations. Because of the increase in the temperature the ice mountains in north
and south poles are melting, this makes rise the sea level, which in result this may eliminate
some islands and countries. This makes the average global precipitation to increase. Many
agreements have been done like the one in Rio De Janeiro 1992 on a Framework Conventionon
Climate Change (FCCC) and another one that was done in 1997 at Kyoto which was on a
protocol that committed Framework Convention on Climate Change (FCCC). Three of the
agreements that have been done in history on global warming has not yet come to force, because
of political issues around the globe and between the countries. Also, in 2015 countries around
the world made an agreement which is known as the most successful agreement every made
on global warming, named COP21. All the countries around the world have attended the

4. meetings and the conferences that took place in Paris, France. The most important thing was
that most of the presidents of big countries like the US, Russia, Germany, France, China, and
many other countries spoke in the meetings and promised the world to do their best in order to
safe our mother planet Earth. The last agreement gave a big hope to scientist and organization
that work on that issue which is the most dangerous and most complimented issue around the
globe.
Main Text:
In these days in our life, there are many things that people can not handle or in other
words can not control them self by no doing those things. Those things include, using
equipments that are made ith some materials like beds that are made from wood. Where does
the wood come from? Everybody knows that its comes from some companies that take down
trees in order to get advantages from it. This makes the concern of global warming more and
more because the need of people around the world are increasing which in this case means
taking down more and more trees. This is why many scientists and organizations locally and
internationally are creating awareness's and workshops in order to educate people in different
places in the world about global warming and climate change, so that every single human on
the planet can know in what danger we are in the moment. From 1992 after the international
committee have agreed at Rio, Brazil about the prevention of climate change and global
warming, the local and international organizations and also the governments around the world
have done a good job but that was not enough because they did not know how the issue is
going to increase and how we all are going to be effected. Until 2015, scientist and people

5. around the globe have tried their best in order to let the international committee know about
the sudden increase of climate change and global warming because of all of those factories and
machines that release the carbon dioxide that poison our air which makes the increase of the
temperature and the rise of sea level. In 2015 all the countries, local and international
organizations, and scientist met at Paris, France in order to an agreement about this big issue
that makes the existence of humans in danger. The meeting took about a week and most of the
countries presidents have spoken in there and suggested there ideas in order to take a big and
successful step to prevent the increase climate change in our planet Earth. Every ones
suggestions were listened and documented about the issue, and in the end they all have agreed
about the issue. They all have agreed that we have to stop and prevent the climate change, or
its better to say we all need to cure our sick planet. According to the agreement, the atomic
fields needs to be reduced, there has to better quality control to all the companies that make
business and harm our environment. This agreement is known as the most successful and the
biggest agreement that has been ever done in humans history about climate change which is a
big approaches to control global warming. Because now every country on the planet are doing
and trying their best to prevent climate change because of the agreement that has been
done.

6. Conclusion:
In conclusion, all of the issues that was mentioned about climate change and all the
agreements that have been from the past until now, are the aproches the failure the success
and the knowlage of human beings, this make it easier for us to understand that because all of
the things that happned and is happening to us is because of our slef we conclude that we all
can fix it since it was done by our self. Making a problem is very easy, but solving it is hard.
Sometimes you need the help of someone to solve a problem because you know that the
thinking of two people for solving a problem is better than doing it only by yourself. This a good
example for the situation that human beings are in. we all have done the disaster to our planet
Earth, and we have messed up everything. We have taken down the trees of Amazon, released
a big amount of carbon dioxide to our environment, raised the sea levels and many other things
that made our planet Earth sick. Since we have done it, we can also solve it, we can do it by

7. uniting and doing everything that we suggest and say. Nothing will change by just saying it. The
agreements are good agreements on the meetings and the conferences, but it will be better if
all what was said and suggest till be done by action not only by saying it. The planet was made
in order to serve humans, in order to live on it, the planet Earth or our mother planet is made
to give us what we want and what we need. But in order to get what we need does not mean
we have to destroy it. No, we need respect it if we want to continue life and the existent and a
better life for the next generation we have to respect it and we need to work for it in order to
have healthy planet and get our needs from it.
