Seminar 16 -- Climate Change: It’s Happening, So Who’s Responding? PDF

This product is a PDF that contains links to files that consist of PowerPoint slides synchronized with the audio-recording of the speaker, PDF files of the slides, and audio only (mp3 format) as noted.

Scientific studies continue to provide data that indicate the Earth’s climate is changing due to human activities, and evidence from across the planet, including in the U.S., indicates some early changes are already happening. Although (as of August 2010) debate continues on legislation in the U.S., as well as on international agreements under the UNFCCC and Montreal Protocol, many companies, organizations and governments are taking action now. This seminar provides an overview of some of the indications of climate change, actions being taken under California legislation, and the impact that ASHRAE standards can and are having to reduce greenhouse gas emissions.
