GGH2604 - People And The Environment. As humans have colonised and modified the Earth’s surface, they have developed progressively more sophisticated tools and technologies. These tools have resulted in ozone depletion, acid rain, climate change, photochemical smog and a change in climate in Africa. 1. CAUSES OF OZONE DEPLETION There are two different types of ozone depletion, both are very similar. The first one has been a slow, but steady ozone depletion of 4% per decade of the earth’...

This paper examines the science-based understanding of ecosystem services and climate change scenarios crucial for life on Earth. Our intention is to provide students with a deeper understanding of the ways in which science is integrated into policy making and underscores the synthesis reports made by organisations such as the Intergovernmental Science-Policy Platform on Biodiversity and Ecosystem Services (IPBES) and the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) - both of which aim to su...
