  1. The global problems • Power point presentation in English • Presented by group 3

  2. Climate Change and Global Issues • Learn about global environmental, climate, and political problems. This is your source for background information and environmental and political geography. • Global Warming Overview - Global WarmingA comprehensive overview of global warming - its causes, its effects, its future, and what we can do about it, from About.com's expert Geography site. • Advantages and Disadvantages of Global WarmingYour About.com expert Guide to Geography provides a listing of the significant advantages and disadvantages of global warming.

  3. Global Problems • Global problems are not just important problems, or problems that affect many people. Rather they are those problems that affect the whole of the planet, and potentially all of the people who live on it. Climate change is one clear example that springs to mind quickly. This is because the consequences of humanly-generated changes in the atmosphere will, albeit in different ways according to region, affect everyone on the planet. In other words, the consequences are universal. Moreover, unless we profoundly change our collective behaviour, climate change may well result in irreversible changes in the climatic conditions of life - a measure of the deep vulnerability of human society in the face of this issue. And it is easy to see that there will be no easy solution to the problem: the causes of the present situation are clearly related to our economic system, our attitudes to nature, our political organisation, our technological capacities and preferences, and our uses of resources. Solutions will involve not just all communities and every country, but solutions will necessarily involve cooperation between all, rather than individual approaches. In other words, the example of climate change suggests that global problems are complex, intractable, and make human society as a whole very vulnerable. Way of preventing global problems

  4. Examples of global problems • The violation of the human security of several billions of the world's poor, and the consequences of the conditions of their lives for the rest of the world; failures and deficits of global governance, especially when set beside the largely unregulated pressures of economic and cultural globalisation; resource depletion, especially that of energy resources, on a scale and in a manner that both unsustainable and profoundly inequitable; the degradation of natural environments as a result of economic activities, including the oceans, forests and soils; the physical, social and psycho-cultural consequences of unprecedented and still accelerating development of megacities; and cultural collisions within and across national borders generated by globalisation and claims to the primacy or universal superiority of one version of reason and ethics.

  5. Global problem solving • Global problems cannot be solved one-at-a-time. By their very nature, global problems are complex, intractable, and interrelated. Often, our best efforts to solve global problems fail or even make them worse. Global problems often stress our decision-making processes and institutional capacities beyond their limits and spiral out of control. Even the best organizations rarely excel at doing more than one thing at a time. Most individuals are hard-pressed to track more than seven variables at once. Yet we live in a seamless web of interrelated global problems, each of which may feed into and shape other problems. Moreover, we do not yet agree on what constitutes global problems, let alone global solutions. Consequently, humanity searches for global solutions at cross-purposes and even in conflict. The result is global gridlock. • Global problem-solving identifies practical ways to untangle this snarl of interrelated global problems by o mapping global problems in depth o identifying multiple solutions to global problems o sharing strategic tools o and creating collaborative partnerships to apply these tools to realize global solutions.

  6. Ways to prevent global problems • 1. Throw the garbage in to proper place. • 2. Conserve water and electricity. • 3. Do not throw garbage/chemicals into the water to prevent water pollution. • 4.No ellegalloging. • 5. Reforestation/planting trees or plants. • 6. Steps To Stop Global Warming • • Drive an energy-efficient car. For instance, hybrid cars run on gas and electricity. The average hybrid can save 16,000 pounds of carbon dioxide (which is considered a greenhouse gas emission) a year! And $3,750 in gas money! Pay attention to the MPG (miles per gallon) of a car you may want to buy. No SUVs! Read consumer reports about which vehicles are most energy-efficient. Way of preventing global problems
