But in both cases, the Bush administration has parried this legal thrust, saying it had no obligation to address or try to mitigate the cause of the species' decline — warming waters, in the case of the corals, or melting sea ice, in the case of the bears — or the greenhouse-gas emissions from cars, trucks, refineries, factories and power plants that contribute to both conditions.
Understanding organic carbon (OC) sequestration in aggregates and OC stability under different fertilization practices is of key importance in improving soil quality and crop productivity and in mitigating the causes of climate change.
Monitoring strategies for detecting SCC, as well as a review of precautions that can be taken to mitigate the potential causes of SCC, will be evaluated.
"There are remarkably few examples of advances in breast cancer prevention, and finding ways to identify and mitigate the environmental causes of the disease has not been a priority".

We know we can mitigate some of the causes of acidification by reducing excess nutrients in our estuaries.
The study investigates an optimum strategy to mitigate the problem caused by changes of three of system characteristics: hydraulic resistance of secondary pipe network, heat transmittance of radiators inside buildings, and heat transmittance of building envelope.
The company also paid $1.5 million to establish a Puget Sound Stewardship and Mitigation Fund to pay for environmental benefit projects to protect water quality in Puget Sound and mitigate the damage caused by years of heavy metals, petroleum and turbidity that flowed from the BNSF property.
Interaction and coordination between generators could mitigate the uncertainties caused by intermittent property of renewable energy sources based on information acquired periodically from the existing SCADA system and wireless networks.
