The world is moving towards a crucial climate change meeting in Paris in December 2015 (COP21). The negotiations there will be based on national pledges, formally known as Intended Nationally Determined Contributions, with the goal of setting the world on a sustainable path. As energy production and use is responsible for two-thirds of greenhouse-gas emissions, the IEA feels an obligation to make a contribution to COP21 – a contribution which reconciles climate and energy needs.
It’s not easy to keep track of the complex ways in which our everyday choices have an impact on a global scale. But as the world’s population surpasses 7 billion, each of our actions—positive or negative—gets multiplied. Read on to learn about five global trends from our latest publication, Vital Signs: The Trends That Are Shaping Our Future, that show that our consumption choices affect more than ourselves—they affect the environment and the lives and livelihoods of millions.

Milwaukee Area Technical College Presentation - 2015 Green Vehicles Workshop ...Wisconsin Clean Cities
George Stone, Milwaukee Area Technical College, gave an overview of the effect of transportation emissions on air quality in Southeastern Wisconsin for the 12th Annual Green Vehicles Workshop held on April 21, 2015 at the Milwaukee Area Technical College.
The impacts of climate change on the environment are already observable. Melting glaciers are resulting in accelerated sea level rise. We are experiencing longer and more intense heat waves and extreme weather conditions

WWF: Policy Expectations for COP 19 WarsawWWF ITALIA
Oggi possiamo salvare il clima e conquistare un futuro di benessere per noi e i nostri figli. Bruciare i combustibili fossili per procurarsi energia e calore ha portato la concentrazione di CO2 in atmosfera ai livelli di 3 milioni di anni fa. Dobbiamo riconquistare l'energia, puntare sulle fonti rinnovabili e l’efficienza energetica. Occorre investire le risorse pubbliche e private nel nostro futuro. E invece i nostri soldi continuano a finanziare il passato fossile. E' ora di cambiare noi, non il clima." Mariagrazia Midulla, Responsabile Clima ed Energia

In a May 9, 2024 paper, Juri Opitz from the University of Zurich, along with Shira Wein and Nathan Schneider form Georgetown University, discussed the importance of linguistic expertise in natural language processing (NLP) in an era dominated by large language models (LLMs).
The authors explained that while machine translation (MT) previously relied heavily on linguists, the landscape has shifted. “Linguistics is no longer front and center in the way we build NLP systems,” they said. With the emergence of LLMs, which can generate fluent text without the need for specialized modules to handle grammar or semantic coherence, the need for linguistic expertise in NLP is being questioned.

Friday, November 20, 2009 The chances of a successful outcome at Copenhagen have faded dramatically over recent weeks. The dreaded truth goes something like this: there are simply far too many people still in denial despite the overwhelming scientific evidence. The blame for this sad state of affairs is largely due to ignorance and lack of education. Until this sad state of affairs changes, little will be done tangibly to avert a looming climate catastrophe. The status quo democratic system in most OECD and developing countries (there are exceptions) determines that political decisions are ultimately made by the voters. This means that politicians by and large are limited in their ability to make ground breaking unpopular decisions because opposition parties will jump at the opportunity to gain political ground. Since the causes of climate change are so much in dispute; it is expedite for all political parties (except the more credible) to take a low cost approach. (ie downplay, even deny and take a ‘wait and see’ approach) This approach may have worked up to now, but a crunch time is approaching. One day, the rhetoric of political grandstanding must be converted into something more tangible. A commitment is one thing; actually achieving this commitment is another thing entirely. This was what Copenhagen was supposed to be about. The last thing we need right now is more hot air. How the world reduces man made greenhouse gases is a complex issue politically, but scientifically and mathematically it is quite straightforward. The number one emitter of co2 is energy. Of all the energy sources, burning coal is the largest contributor to manmade greenhouse gases. Therefore it makes a lot of scientific and economic sense to target coal first. (read Carbon sequestration) Once this technology is perfected, then a dramatic move to electric powered vehicles can be achieved by all world governments. In this way achieving 350ppm is possible by 2100.
