nature, habitat - solutions to global warming

Global warming has resulted in alot of losses throughout the World. Many people have realised the need to try to stop global warming from getting worse, thus, many people and governments are working hard to cut greenhouse gases.
Researchers Stephen Pacala and Robert Socolow at Princeton University have suggested one approach that they call "stabilization wedges." This means reducing CFC emissions from a variety of sources with technologies available in the next few decades, rather than relying on an enormous change in a single area.  They suggest 7 wedges that could each reduce emissions, and all of them together could hold emissions at approximately current levels for the next 50 years, putting us on a potential path to stabilize around 500 ppm.

Nature habitat-effects of its depletion

  Results of  nature habitat depletion are plentiful. One of the major problems of habitat loss would be that: It is one of the primary causes of species extinction in the recent years. Human beings have various influences on the ecosystems and very often, the cause of habitat loss. Awhile back in the 19th century, over-hunting was an important factor of endangered species. But recently, environmental and habitat destruction is equally an important factor. Furthermore, such habitat destruction has no possibility of recovery for endangered species unless the destructed area is reconstructed which would take many years. Natural habitats have already been modified and in a sense destructed in part, even the forests of the Amazon forest or the ice fields of the North Pole. http://www.iemss.org/iemss2002/proceedings/pdf/volume%20tre/247_nakagiri.pdf
