[Feb. 10, 2022] The Forefront of Greenhouse Gas Research: Toward Achieving the Goals of the Paris Agreement
The following online event will be co-hosted by the GCP Tsukuba International Office of the National Institute for Environmental Studies and Future Earth Japan.
The Forefront of Greenhouse Gas Research: Toward Achieving the Goals of the Paris Agreement
Greenhouse gasses such as carbon dioxide, methane, and nitrous oxide are crucial factors for global warming.
The current situation and future projections for the greenhouse gas cycle derived from front-line research using observations and models will be introduced for a consideration of what needs to be done to achieve the 1.5-degree maximum target of the Paris Agreement.
