Introduction Strategic management (strategic planning) results in superior performance by organisations. Strategic management process boosts recorded profits, sales, and return on assets. Organisations adopt a strategic management approach to improve financial performance keep a continuous eye on…
Global Warming Scientists have spent their lives studying the earth; taking note of all its activities, changes and collusion. After studying and analyzing the earth, they came up with the term known as Global warming. Global Warming can be defined as “the unusual and frequent increase in the earth’s temperature over time, primarily due to the greenhouse gases released by people burning fossil fuels. Looking back to the history of the earth, it has experience several changes; climate…
Chapter VII Conclusion and Suggestions Rapidly increasing global warming and the clearly manifested Climate change has brought people and their bodies together to seriously ponder over the issues relating to our environment. This is a fact that global warming and the resultant climate change are the two major problems relating to our ecology and environment. There is no denying the fact that in the past few decades the environmental issues have dominated the discussions and discourses in every…
His book World Risk Society (climate change, terrorism, financial crisis) summarizes many of his cumulated efforts and ideas. This paper examines his thoughts about Climate Change and Global Warming, which he considers a prime concern and result of these trends and forces. Professor Ulrich Beck 's book "Risk Society" focuses on modernization and the risks of climate change…
Scientists prove that the major cause of climate change is human activities through burning of fossil fuel and deforestation. These activities increase greenhouse gas in the atmosphere, which global warming articulates every year. Climate change is one of the most significant drivers in change in social-ecological system in coastal areas(Evans et al., 2013). Johnson and Marshall (2007) and Wachenfeld et al (2007) (cited in Evans et al., 2013 p.84) stated that climate change is the great risk to…
It is true that the climate has changed and humans are accountable for causing it? Global warming has been one of the biggest deals of political and scientific controversy. As we know that the scientists have discovered mysteries of the world and universe in the past decades. Is it to be believed that humans are involved in causing the global warming? One of my main reasons for saying that the Earth is actually becoming warmer, is because of the increasing temperatures through the thermometer…
historical and financial resources, rapidly approaching the danger area of climate change. The organization for Economic Cooperation and development (OECD) ranked this city among the top ten in the world who are exposed to the highest risk because of rising sea levels and predict that by 2070 as much as 2.9 million people and assets worth 2.1 billion dollars can be affected by floods caused by storms. Hurricane Sandy, which had devastating consequences, is one of the examples of global warming…
transportation networks was a deceitful scheme in their goal to “sabotage the production of oil” (47) and propagate oil scarcity. They, similarly, acted in the same vein as the coal miners and workers in trying to curtail the plenitude of oil since it affected global oil prices and market value. Also, Diana Davis’ idea of the ‘declensionist environmental narrative’: the use of false evidenced-based narratives by the French and British colonialists to rationalize and champion imperialism seems to…
to plants and wildlife. Trees also play a serious role in engrossing the greenhouse gases that fuel global warming. Less forest mean huge amounts of greenhouse gases incoming the atmosphere—and enlarged speed and strictness of global warming. The fastest solution to deforestation would be to purely break cutting down trees. Though deforestation charges have slowed a bit in recent years, financial realities make this improbable to…
deforestation have caused 2015 to be the hottest year ever recorded. The rise in heat has caused water in third world countries to become scarce and wars to occur. Global warming is a colossal issue that affects the environment, the world, and mankind, and if it is not stopped soon, the results on the Earth could be disastrous. Global Warming has put an enormous “carbon footprint” on Earth, although some scientists, such as Nordhaus, says to not worry too much about it because our…
