Glasgow: Glaciers in Antarctica far have been named Glasgow Glaciers to honor the city of Scotland to host the high-level UN climate summit which was officially opened here on Sunday, kicking two weeks of intense diplomatic talks about intense global warming.
Ice body 100 km, who has experienced a quick smelting, officially named by researchers at the University of Leeds to mark the 26th party conference (COP26) the Convention on the UN framework concerning Climate Change (UNFCCC), A Stark reminder about why an urgent action It is necessary.
“By nominating this sparkling natural giant after the city where humanity will gather to fight for the future of the planet, we have a surprising reminder of what we do to preserve,” British Prime Minister Johnson said.
“Glasgow represents our best opportunities.
Just like the G-20 share collective responsibility to act, so the solution is in our hands.
I hope the countries will gather next week in the spirit of responsibility and ambition so that we can maintain the purpose of 1.5 degrees Life-life, “Johnson stressed.
In addition to Glasgow, eight new named glaciers are Geneva, Rio, Berlin, Kyoto, Bali, Stockholm, Paris and Incheon – all named after the cities that accommodate important UN climate meetings.
PHD Heather Selley researchers, from the school of Earth and the Leeds Environment, have identified 14 glaciers in the Western Antarctic West Antarctic basin which is thinning 25 percent between 1994 and 2018 due to climate change.
His studies, published in February 2021, found that 315 Gigaton ice was lost from the region in the last 25 years.
In essence, this is equivalent to 126 million Olympic sized swimming pools.
Selley and Dr.
Anna Hogg have requested that nine unnamed nine glaciers in this study are named after the location of the main climate agreements, reports and conferences, the latest is called the Glasgow Summit.
The proposal was conveyed by the British government and supported by the British name-Antarctic Committee.
These names will now be added to the International Composite Gazettette for Antarctica, for use on maps, graphics, and future publications.
“Army glaciers after the location of the main climate agreements, conferences and reports is a great way to celebrate international collaboration on climate change science and policies for the past 42 years,” explained.
“We want to permanently mark the extraordinary efforts entered by the scientific community to measure the current impact of future climate change and evolution of the predicted future,” he said.
Dramatic changes in the ice cover and Antarctic images have become identical to climate change.
Over the past 40 years, satellites have observed the incident gave birth to large iceberg, changes in thinning glacier and ice stream quickly showed the impact of global global warmers.
Dr.
Hogg, Associate Professor in the School of Earth and the Leeds Environment, said: “The climate crisis affects all of us, both through the flood of our house, the increase in storm frequency, reducing plant harvests, or loss of biodiversity and biodiversity in the environment, with several community impacts more From the others.
“Although the names of the new glaciers celebrate the knowledge obtained through scientific collaboration and actions taken through policy, it is clear now that more must be done,” he added.
Downing Street said the English message at the G-20 summit in Rome on Sunday was to highlight how 50 years ago Britain originated about 80 percent of electricity from burning coal, and nine years ago that the amount was almost 40 per.
Sen and today are under 2 percent.
Britain plans to remove the use of coal in the full power plant in 2024.
Johnson called for the richest economy in the world to do everything they could to achieve zero emissions by domestically in 2050, while helping developing countries by stopping energy by stopping, reversing Deforestation and land degradation in 2030
