Many laws have been placed by governments around the world such as the Kyoto protocol and Cap-and-Trade. These acts have been placed so scientists can measure just how much each country is affecting the world and how imminent the threat is to life on Earth. People all over the world have now realized the problems facing the world…

variety of network cable types. Whereas in some other cases, a very basic network may only utilise one kind of network cable. The cable needed varies according to the client’s needs for example the size of the network (PAN, LAN, MAN, WAN), the network protocols and even the network topology. Different cables have different characteristics and it is important to learn about the different cables available on a network to develop a successful network. In this report I will be discussing and…

international community initiative includes drafting measures to achieve the United Nations Convention on Climate Change (Kyoto Protocol) in order to stabilize the concentration of greenhouse gases in the atmosphere and to prevent dangerous interference with the climate. The article written by Scott Barrett and Robert Stavins analysis the effectiveness of such international protocol while proposing…

This article by the New York Times describes what Trump’s promises mean in accordance with the Paris Agreement. Although the agreement does not rely solely on the United States, we are hold a large role in influence for other nations to cut back and have been on track for improvement over the last few years. If America does retract its agreement, other countries have threatened to tax or altogether deny imports and exports from the U.S. The combat against climate change began with the Obama…

The United states should not have pulled out of the Paris Climate Accord because the view on america is bad enough, the earth is ill and creating jobs strengthens that illness, and the long term goal set by the Accord is much more important than some think. To begin, receding from the Paris Climate Accord shows a great sign of weakness and inability to commit, resulting in an even more rapid decrease in positive views from other nations on the United States, as even the U.S. could not agree to…

What is a VPN? It stands for virtual private network. Its main purpose is to secure the connections between the host and the server. It fulfills that purpose by using tunneling protocols, encryption, data encapsulation and certified connections to protect the identity of the host. The simplest way to think about it is to compare it to a LAN connection but without wiring. The History of VPN: Early VPNs were often set up to give individual employees secure remote access to their company…

A Performance Assessment of the Kyoto Protocol Introduction The Kyoto Protocol, adopted in 1997 by the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC), was designed to address the global emissions of greenhouse gasses. Effective in 2005, it provided legally binding targets for countries which varied depending on the level of development of the country as well as contained certain measures for collaboration between countries for trading credits. Evidently, to successfully reduce…

Global warming has been taking effect on the Earth’s environment since the 1950’s creating dramatic changes and dangerous new records. In the last three decades the Earth’s average surface temperature has each been successively warmer than any previous decade since 1850 as a result of increase greenhouse emissions (IPCC 2014). This temperature rise is impacting some of the most vulnerable ecosystems on the planet such as the polar regions, coral reefs and tropical rainforests. Climate change can…

Climate change has been a long-term global issue that requires collective global action in the form of flexible yet stable policy implementation by the global actors. As a global actor, Australia’s approach and commitments to action on climate change, has been considered as inconsistent and lacking in direction (Talberg, Hui & Loynes, 2013). Nevertheless Australia’s climate reputation has not always been a negative one, in the early 1990’s Australia’s reputation was even seen as…
