In January 1995 a vast section of ice broke off the Larsen ide shelf in Antarctica. While this occurrence,
the direct result of a regional warming trend that hegan in the 1940k, may be the most spectacular
manifestation yet of serious climate changes occurring on the planet as a consequence of atmospheric
heating. Other symptoms--more intense storms, prolonged droughts, extended heat waves, and record
flooding...-have been emerging around the world for several years.
According to scientific estimates, furthermore, sea-level rise resulting from gobal warming will reach 3
feet (1 meter) within the next century. Such a rise could submerge vast coastal areas, with potentially
irreversible consequences.
Late in 1995 the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) reported that it had detected the
***fingerprint" of human activity as a contributor to the warming of the earth's atmosphere. Furthermore,
panel scientists attributed such warming directly to the increasing quantities of carbon dioxide released
by our burning of fossil fuels. The IPCC report thus clearly identifies a pattern of climatic response to
human activities in the climatological recond, thereby establishing without doubt that global warming
can no longer be attributed solely to natural climate variability. The panel is concerned about the grave
problem and the threat that it poses to the environment at large.
