| PRODUCT DESCRIPTION |
The impact of temperature rise on sea levels and weather patterns is still emerging and such effects may never be fully attributed to global warming, since the mechanisms are too complex and the burden of proof is too great.
The Precautionary Principle has become the basis on which action needs to be contemplated and the creation of the Inter-Governmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) following the Rio Earth Summit in 1992 became the first step in the regulatory response. IPCC continues to guide global policy development in this area and this contribution led to the Kyoto Protocol in 1997. However, the political implications of climate change on economic growth and society`s current way of life are so pervasive that some Governments are still finding it difficult to fully engage the agenda. |
