Climate Change has an impact on society, science and the environment. There are several chemical reactions that are specifically altering due to the changing climate, as well. These chemical reactions may be environmental, biological, and even industrial. Many of the industrial chemical reactions are directly responsible for climate change. Comment on some of these impacts and specifically critique your personal impact on the changing climate. What actions can you take in order to reduce your impact? What actions can be (or have been) taken from a larger perspective (provincial, national or international) to reduce overall CO2 emissions. How do you think the impact of these types of structural solutions (environmental regulations) compares with personal solutions (e.g., reducing energy use, using “cleaner” technology)?
