What to Focus On

  • Global environmental problems need worldwide action.
  • Carbon dioxide concentration in the atmosphere is about 0.03 percent.
  • If unchecked, carbon dioxide concentration may double by 2030.
  • Current emissions and historical emissions are both important.
  • Developed and developing countries have different views on responsibility.
  • China is the top current CO2 emitter in 2011 data.
  • Mutual cooperation is needed between developed and developing countries.
  • Sustainable development meets present needs without harming future generations.
  • Sustainable development has three dimensions: economic development, social equity, and environment protection.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

Global warming and ozone depletion are the same environmental problem.

The countries that emit the most carbon dioxide today must also be the ones most responsible historically.

Economic growth and economic development mean the same thing.
