Abstract:
“Warming of the climate system is unequivocal!” While climate change debate has been at the fore of international political agenda for the past few decades, the uncertainty surrounding the science, and its mitigation and adaptation aspects have brought the scientific community to the limelight. Anthropologically forced climate change is one of the most significant challenges humankind has ever faced and presents a significant opportunity for increasing the scientific understanding about our planet and about the human activities having major impacts on the global processes governing it.
