GLOBAL

WARMING
WHAT IS A CLIMATE CHANGE?
A climate change is when there is an increase in
temperature of the Earth’s Surface that can appear in
the land and in the water.
CAUSES
There are eight principal aspects that can produce a climate
change. Each one has different influence. Forestry,
wastewater, energy supply, transport, residential and
commercial buildings, industry and agriculture.
EFFECTS
There are more effects than causes in the global warming.
These effects are problems that we are overcoming
everyday. Droughts, destruction, poverty, hurricanes and
hungry can be the principal consequences in a climate
change.
INTERNATIONAL TREATIES

There are three principal treaties:

• Negotiations to develop the Framework Convention on Climate
Change (UNFCCC), Río de Janeiro, 1992.
• Montreal Protocol on Substances That Deplete the Ozone Layer,
1996.
• Geneva Convention on Long-Range Transboundary Air Pollution,
1979.
• Kyoto Protocol.
KYOTO PROTOCOL
MEXICO ON CLIMATE CHANGES
Mexico also is a principal country that produces contamination, and
we can see that contamination in some situations: diseases, loss of
forests, rain changes, advances in the hot season and droughts.
WHAT IS MEXICO DOING?

• Create measurement, reporting, verification, monitoring

and evaluation mechanisms.
• Construction of a climatic culture.
• Research and technology implementation.
