However unintentional, it is the direct result of human activity — of development, of global warming, of air and water pollution and of our failure to set aside the habitat these birds need to flourish.
This skewed vision demonstrated in the Times -- where we neither see nor appreciate the immense consequences of our consumption -- is exactly what fueled the current development of global warming and demonstrates that we, as a society, still have a long way to go before we can get serious about environmental change.
Better yet, commit to a decade-long investment in renewable energy development that will give meaningful work to millions while addressing the growing hazard of global warming.
The challenge of sustainable development (under the aspect of global warming) proves that there are currently several crucial questions that need to be answered (see Carayannis [2011]); so new political goals must be formulated, in reference with CO2 emission limits, in the quest for a long-term sustainability.
However, the improved exchange of knowledge and the striving for knowledge, new know-how, and innovations through the Quintuple Helix Model can be, or at least, offer a solution for the challenges of sustainable development under the aspect of global warming in the twenty-first century.
In reference to sustainable development, under the aspect of global warming, we should add whether in the future a state (nation-state) that is leading in world politics as well as in the world economy is also being determined by the social (societal) potential to balance new knowledge, know-how, and innovation with nature.
Mr. Bush is expected to eventually propose new money for research and development of global warming-related technologies, going beyond the roughly $10 billion in projected spending outlined in the energy plan.
Some argue that if a project generates less carbon but disrupts a local community, it forces the poor to take responsibility for the pollution of the rich and reinforces a model of development that created the problem of global warming in the first place.
Consequently, experiments on the effects of global warming on leaf growth and development will provide a better understanding of the mechanism of plant responses to global warming at the community level.
The special challenge of global warming can be tackled by 'sustainable development'.a Sustainable development concerns us all and takes place on the local as well as global level.
As an example, different IPCC scenarios related to different levels of global warming and societal developments, can be used as external scenarios for assessing strategic scenarios.
