Introduction of Global
warming and International Political Economy
As
the temperature of the world planet is rising consecutively over fifty years
and it affects many fields of life including the international political
economy. There are many reasons for increasing global warming that can change the
environment of the world as well as it also causes of climate change into the
world. The studies which are provided in this document providing very important
information about how global warming can be effective in the international
political economy. The studies are providing information that global warming
can cause climate change and due to this reason, it affects all of the
international markets, supply chain management of the companies, trading across
the border as well as international relationships among the countries. Furthermore,
the reason for climate change and damage to global international relationships is
because of the heavy climate change throughout the world. It can also cause of
the changing perceptions of people as well as the system of an international
political-economic structure. Although, the climate change impacts include the
rise into the traditional as well as cultural tensions within different countries
and their political systems by destabilization massively and can cause the high
immigration of people into different countries. In easy words, global warming
and climate change are playing major roles in the destabilization of the international
political economies around the world.
Facts of Global Warming of
Global warming and International Political Economy
The
average temperature in the world has increased over the past several years and
the rate of increasing temperature is too fast in recorded history. The change
has come to the world due to this increase in the global temperature. The
scientists have noticed that the duration of hot weather is now more than cold
weather due to global warming. In simple words, the unusual increase in the average
surface temperature of earth rapidly due to greenhouse effects and gases is
global warming. It is because of burning fossil fuels by people. Global warming
is also the characteristic of climate change that refers to an increase in the
temperature of the earth for the long term. The major reason for increasing
global warming is the extensive use and burning of natural resources including extensively
generating the greenhouse gases that kill the ozone layers around the globe.
Another reason for the rise in temperature is deforestation and new
construction development around the world. There several types of facts of global
warming which are mentioned and discussed in this paper.
Global
warming is the increase of surface temperature of the earth because of
greenhouse gases that are the reason to warm up the surface of the planet. The
greenhouse gases generated due to the greenhouse effect keep heat close to the
surface of the earth. Because of burning fossil fuels and extensive use of
natural resources, it is increasing the carbon dioxide. The most disturbing fact
of global warming is that the glaciers have also shrunk. Because of this fact, many
changes in the atmosphere made because glaciers also play a role to control the
temperature of the world. The next level disadvantage of global warming is that
it can increase the risk of illness and death related to heat. Furthermore,
global warming is also dangerous and affective for animals being underwater.
Corel reefs are also in danger due to global warming because it also warms the
water of the ocean. The most important fact of global warming is decreasing the
snow covers or snow sheets on mountains and surface and rapidly converted into
water. Due to shrinking and reducing snow covers, it is also noted the rise in
the sea level. according to Nasa satellite data, the sea level has been increasing
in 2020.

Causes of Global Warming of
Global warming and International Political Economy
There
are several causes of global warming discussed in this document that is
providing brief information about it. Global warming occurs when several types
of air pollutants including Carbon dioxide and greenhouse gases mixed in the
atmosphere. These air pollutants have the ability to absorb sunlight and its
energy along with solar radiation which has been bounced off the surface of the
earth. This kind of radiations thrown by the sun, should be reflected in space
other than the surface of the earth but the air pollutant and greenhouse gases affect
all of the radiations into the world and warm the atmosphere of the earth. This
effect is also known as the greenhouse effect. Furthermore, the greenhouse
effect is the natural phenomenon but the increase in the gases of the greenhouse
is completely linked to human activities. Humans are the major drivers of
bringing a rise in the heating level of the atmosphere because they extensively
burning fossil fuels and natural resources for their personal purposes.
The
very first cause of global warming is the extensive use and burn of fossil
fuels in the daily life because the burning of the fossil fuels generates the
carbon dioxide and other types of toxic and harmful gases and air pollutants
which are completely dangerous and very effective for the environment, human
plus animal beings as well as cause of climate change. The burning of fossil
fuels is also considered as the first source of global warming because these
are used to burning coal, oils, and gas-producing carbon dioxide and carbon
monoxide and other greenhouse gases. Although, the most harmful and dangerous
gas which is formed by fossil fuel burning, is the nitrous oxide which is also
used in racing cars and motorbikes to increase speed (Cho, Martens, Kim, & Rodrigue, 2011).
The
second major cause of global warming is deforestation around the world. As the demand
for paper is increasing day by day for educational purposes as well as for
office use and in the other areas, the industries of papermaking have to fulfill
the paper need through trees. For this purpose, they have to cut and pluck
trees to manufacture the paper but they are taking part in deforestation. On
the other side, people also want to construct their homes and offices, they
also require wood to finish their construction. In the cold areas and those
areas where winter is near, people also prefer to burn woods for warming
purposes and they have to cut the trees. They all are taking the part into the
deforestation. The trees, plants, and greenery are very useful and beneficial
to maintain the atmosphere of the planet because trees are only well being
exist in the world that consumes carbon dioxide and freshen the air and
environment. Trees also help to decrease the temperature even in summer days
but humans are cutting them for their purposes and increase global warming on
the planet.
Another
cause of global warming is intensive farming. It sounds confusing because
plants are helpful for the environment. The answer is the plants and farms are
not effective for the environment and not cause climate change but the plant
protection products as well as the fertilizers which are used. These plant
protection medicines, chemicals as well as fertilizers such as Urea in the form
of chemicals, are very harmful to the environment because they produce a large number
of methane gases. Furthermore, some fertilizers are producing different types
of gases and the most dangerous gas is nitrous oxide. These gases which are
produced by these fertilizers are increasing the risk of global warming.
There
are many products as well as several types of things used by every human being
but after using and finishing the product, their cases, wrappers, and other
related things are gone in the waste materials. The waste disposals are also
the cause of global warming because the waste management authorities are using
some methods such as incineration and landfill produce the toxic and greenhouse
gases along with non-bearable smell in the surroundings. These gases are
playing the major role of the creation and cause of global warming by changing
the climate because these gases will be released into the atmosphere,
underground water, and the soil. These are contributing to the creation of global
warming through an increased rate of greenhouse gases.
Mining
is a very effective and valuable part of modern life because it completely
depends on mining for the purposes of detection of metals and other fossil fuels.
In search of the minerals and different types of metals, humans are
consecutively mining because they are used in different fields of life such as
construction, manufacturing industrial products as well as transportation. For
the purpose of mining, this industry is also producing toxic gases around 5% which
cases the emissions of greenhouse (Stamm, Clark, & Eblacas, 2000).
Effects of Global warming on
International Political economy
Global
warming is the major cause of climate change as well as it is a common problem
because the causes of global warming are the human mad greenhouse emission of
the gas. Furthermore, the effects of global warming are distributed as well as
the felt throughout the international system, jurisdictions the state as well
as transcending traditional boundaries of the international political system.
In this section, it is discussed about the effects of global warming on the
international political economy. The global warming also affects and damages
the global international relations because of climate change. The reason or
effect of this fact is that it can change the perception and system of the
international political-economic structure.
To
assert in the objective terms, the causality is specifically difficult and
complicated as the result. Furthermore, it uses regularly the concepts of right
to development as well as historical responsibility in the debates around
global warming and climate change caused by global warming but their
sedimentation is imperfect. Due to assigning such kinds of concepts, these
assertations may be specifically problematic for the particular states, across
the boundaries of the states as well as neglecting the non-state actors’ hosts.
Because all of them are sharing the responsibilities. It is more important to
understand that different states and the countries are not the entities of
monolithic with these actors that are significant to climate change. While the
states are the complicated groups which consist of units, integrated systems as
well as the small the systems which range the international political realm. It
is found the strong relationship among international relations as well as
climate change but it can be very complicated for understanding the relationships
of international relations and international political economy with the global
warming effect and climate change (Newell & Paterson, 1998).
Moreover,
the effects of climate change and global warming can be measured as the
economic cost. Global warming is especially and specifically well suited to the
impacts of the market as well as its effects which are associated with the
transaction of markets and directly affect GDP. The non-market impacts’
monetary measures such as the effects on the ecosystem as well as human health
are more difficult to calculate. Furthermore, some very important and complex
effects of climate change caused by global warming with the estimation of its
impacts are discussed in this section.
The
detailed geographical knowledge is required by calculating the distributional
effects but these are the major sources of uncertainty. Several studies are
providing information on the effects of climate change caused by global warming
and the greenhouse effect that it will have several the types of the negative
effects on the demographic, economic as well as the political structures of the
society. Climate change can be very effective for the international political-economic
conditions of the countries as well as it can also affect the intra marketing
activities of the companies among different counties because of changing
behaviors and their perceptions of selected products. Moreover, the effects of
global warming and climate change include the increase into the cultural and
traditional cultural tensions in different countries and their subcontinents, political
destabilization in the different countries, massive immigration to the United
Kingdom or other European countries as well as regional economic collapse
including the economic losses (Jorgenson, 2006).
Furthermore,
the most extreme negative impact of climate change on the international
political economy is the economic losses in the countries between several other
changes that will integrate to the destabilize the humanity for the many future
generations. Although, it has been failed by the international affairs to come
up with the specific explanation because the universal preservation is the global
warming while the focused problem refers to the gains of short-term trades for
the long-term losses. The onset of the parity of the grid will solve global
warming into the future decades while this solution will be very late and slow
to prevent and stop the dangerous effects and consequences of global warming on
the international political economy. Therefore, an effective way will
ultimately be found by civilization to manage and handle the negative impacts
of global warming on the international political economy in the global warming
age because the humanity is resilient (Kanlic, 2014).
Preventive measures for Global
Warming of Global warming and International Political Economy
In
this section, the brief information related to the preventive measure for
global warming is provided. There are also many ways and simple methods to
prevent global warming reduce as well as reduce emissions and energy consumption.
The preventive measure which is provided in this section can be very helpful to
prevent global warming and helpful in reducing climate change. Some very
important preventive measures are listed following.
·
Renewable Energy usage of Global warming and
International Political Economy
The use of
renewable energies is the very first preventive measure for global warming and
to prevent climate change by reducing the use and burning of fossil fuels for
personal purposes. The governments and every energy supplier company must have
to consider the use of renewable energies such as biomass, wind, solar as well
as geothermal energy. The benefit of using this energy is that it can reduce the
emission of carbon dioxide as well as the emission of other greenhouse gases.
·
Efficient use of water and energy
The production of
clean energy is necessarily important but it can also reduce the consumption of
water as well as the consumption of energy through the use of very effective
devices which can be cheaper but can perform some type of work. But these
devices may also provide more effective performance without wasting more energy
and water resource such as LED lights and innovative showers.
·
Sustainable Infrastructure
In order to reduce
the emissions of carbon dioxide from building and residential areas which are
caused by air conditioning, heating, lighting, or hot water. It is very
important essential to construct new energy buildings as well as to renovate
the current constructions in the cities.
·
Planting trees of Global warming and
International Political Economy
The government and
people must have to take initiatives to plant trees in the cities, parks as
well as streets because the trees are the major source of reducing the temperature
in the surface. Furthermore, it also reduces the carbon dioxide by consuming as
well as very helpful to freshen the air in the surrounding areas. The trees are
also the major sources of generating oxygen and intake carbon dioxide during
the photosynthesis process.
·
Reduction of Waste of Global warming
and International Political Economy
The landfills are
the major contributors of emission and generation of methane, carbon dioxide as
well as other greenhouse gases. Furthermore, waste releases toxic gases in
soil, water, and atmosphere that results in global warming when it is burnt. So,
the companies and the waste management companies must have to recycle and reuse
the old items because the recycling and the reuse of waste materials will be
very helpful to reduce the emission of carbon and it also takes less energy for
recycling.
·
Sustainable transportation
Sustainable
transportation is also a very effective and preventive measure for global
warming by promoting carpooling and public transportation. Vehicle
manufacturing companies must have to follow the go green principles and must
have to consider the miniaturization of electric vehicles and hydrogen mobility
which will effectively help to decrease the level of carbon dioxide emissions and
control global warming.
·
Sustainable agriculture & forest management
The most important
preventive measure for global warming is sustainable agriculture and forest
management by encouraging better the use of fossil fuels and other natural
resources and the people must have to stop extensive deforestation. Humans must
adapt computers for their office use and educational purposes to reduce the use
of paper made by trees.
Conclusion of Global warming and
International Political Economy
It
is concluded that the average temperature in the world has increased over the
past several years and the rate of increasing temperature is too fast in
recorded history. Global warming is the increase of surface temperature of the
earth because of greenhouse gases that are the reason to warm up the surface of
the planet. The very first cause of global warming is the extensive use and
burn of fossil fuels in the daily life because the burning of the fossil fuels
generates the carbon dioxide and other types of toxic and harmful gases and air
pollutants As the demand for paper is increasing day by day for educational
purposes as well as for office use and in the other areas, the industries of
papermaking have to fulfill the paper need through trees. Another cause of
global warming is intensive farming. The most extreme negative impact of
climate change on the international political economy is the economic losses in
the countries between several other changes that will integrate to the
destabilize the humanity for the many future generations. The use of renewable
energies is the very first preventive measure for global warming and to prevent
climate change by reducing the use and burning of fossil fuels for personal
purposes. The government and people must have to take initiatives to plant
trees in the cities, parks as well as streets because the trees are the major
source of reducing the temperature in the surface.
