6. Hello. My name is Luana I. from Lipova, L.A.M. and I think that nowadays men doesn't respect any
old or young woman at all. Today, everyone disrespect women because of their infidelity and clothing,
even tho it's not the same in every single situation. Men sexualize women for everything because of
their prettiness. Men are very misogynist because of their relationship experience with the wrong
person. Everyone deserves a chance to prove they're different. Bye.

7. My name is Mihai R. and I am a student at LAM, Lipova, Romania. A utopian view of feminism in
the future is that women will be equally paid with men for the same job, more and more women will be
having important jobs in multinationals like CEOs, HR manager, PR and so on. The women's purpouse
wouldn't be to make and raise children because men would be more implicated in family life and in the
education the children got from home. Women will be succesful reserchers, astronauts, doctors or
presidents exactly like men are in the last 6 decades. In the European Parlament the number and the
importance of women representants will be equal with men representants. Women will be let freely
decide to have or not kids without any judgemnet from other people. The sexual assarment will be
diminuated.

8. Hi! I am Teodora from Romania, L.A.M Lipova. Utopian women are allowed to work, vote, become
priests, fight, and generally have just as much influence over Utopian affairs as do men. True, some
pragmatic constraints are placed on women.

9. I think women and men should respect each other and men would let women to men job if they want
to and women would let men do their job if they feel like they want to to that.I think women are strong
and can do anything, same in the men's part. Women are strong and special and they can have their

by all.

28. My name is Alexandra E. and I am a student at LAM, Lipova, Romania. A utopian view of
feminism in the future is that women will be equally paid with men for the same job, more and more
women will be having important jobs in multinationals like CEOs, HR manager, PR and so on. The
women's purpouse wouldn't be to make and raise children because men would be more implicated in

harassment will be diminuated.Parents will not be afarid to let thier daughters go out because of men
anymore.

29. My name is Dariana S. and I am a student at L.A.M Lipova, Romania. A median of 94% think it is
important for women in their country to have the same rights as men, with 74% saying this is very
important. In Canada, a large part of the population considers that equality between the genes is very
important, while the population of Africa is not with this, claiming the opposite. Fortunately, more and
more people consider gender equality a good thing. For example, in the Netherlands 90% of the

population consider this beneficial, 8% ineffective, and 2% consider that gender equality already exists.
So, in the future, the possibility of people believing more and more in gender equality is growing.

30. Hello, im Fatima R, im from Azerbaijan, as a woman, i have always been well aware of sexism and
discrimination surrounding the wide variety of fields that women are trying to grow in. Education is
one of the most important thing for personal developement and it can not be stated otherwise. However,
as in all other cases, women are belittled and their education priveleges are taken away from them,
leaving not only the women themselves but their families and loved ones in absolute despair. Life is all
about justice and basic human morals, it is not the ancient times anymore. We do not need physical
strength as much and the way a person is built does not play a big role, everyone that has blood running
through their veins is capable of the least a human can do, that is all you need to evolve. Woman and/or
men are nothing more or less than either of them. They are equals, always have been, therefore every
single living human being has to have a chance AND a choice to evolve in the field at the end of

31. My name is Musa H. and I am a student at Baku European Lyceum, Azerbaijan Education plays a
key role as a tool for promoting change and empowerment in promoting human rights values and is
recognized as paving the way for gender equality and the empowerment of women. In addition,
education is one of the most important tools for personal development and educating self-confident
workers and citizens in a spirit of citizenship and in the interests of national development.In the United
Nations Millennium Declaration, the General Assembly decided to ensure that, by 2015, children
around the world have the opportunity to complete a full course of primary schooling and that girls and
boys have equal access to all levels of education.

32. Hello I am Rancu Sebastian from Romania Lipova L.A.M.I think that gender equality is when
people of all genders have equal rights, responsibilities and opportunities. Everyone is affected by
gender inequality - women, men, trans and gender diverse people, children and families. ... Societies
that value women and men as equal are safer and healthier. Gender equality is a human right.

33. Hello, I am Oghuz Isayev from Baku European lyceum, Azerbaijan. When we talk about human
rights we do not seperate this to women’s rights or men’s rights on papers. However, it is such a pity
seeing all the discrimination against minorities all around the world. When it comes to the education
field, it is of course one of the crucial fields in our lives. It is important for all genders and for people of
all abilities therefore, they should not be separated for what their sex is. When it comes to studying

abroad especially, many parents do not let their daughters to study in another country. I hope this issue
will be solved in the future as we really need this.

34. Hello,I am m L.A.M Lipova.And I think all entitled to human rights. These include the right to live
free from violence and discrimination; to enjoy the highest attainable standard of physical and mental
health; to be educated; to own property; to vote; and to earn an equal wage.hink

35. Hello, my name is Roxana B and I'm a student at L. A. M Lipova, România. I think men have to
respect way more women because world's gender equality is an important thing for our future, but at
the same time women need to respect men. We need to love each other for a better world. I suport
gender equality and I think you should do it too!

My name is lupu Iulian Nicolae and I am a student at LAM Lipova. I believe that the human rights
need to be respected. The gender equality begins with the human's rights. The human rights include the
right to live free from violence, free from sclavery or discrimination, the right to have access to
education, the right to own a propriety, to vote.

respect the woman and vice versa. there should be no gender differences.

37. My name is Ana (Split, Croatia). I believe there will only be positive changes about gender
equality. World changes through time and I think there will be more possibilities for women and that
they will be able to improve womens status and rights all around the world.

38. Anđela (Split, Croatia) I really hope that we could change something about today's society and how
we treat women. There is such a huge difference between gender rights starting with minimum wages,
humiliating, stereotypes about women not being strong, good or endurable enough. I believe that this
will change soon and that we won't live in a world where we think that this is the reality we have and
need, but I wish that we could change our irrational opinions and live in a better place.

40.My Name is Efe Bayram G..I'm a student at Özel Ünye Bahçeşehir Koleji Ortaokulu, Turkey. I
believe in the equality of men and women in education. In my utopian world, the proportion of men
and women who manage education policies will be equal to each other. New laws will be passed to
ensure equality between men and women in education, and countries will provide the most allowances
for education. In this way, more information will be provided and equality will be ensured with the
studies.

41. My name is Latif Furkan C. I'm a student at Özel Ünye Bahçeşehir Ortaokulu, Turkey. Nowadays,

girls cannot attend school on an equal basis anywhere in the world. But there should be gender equality
in education. For this reason, in my utopian future, girls will have the same rights and receive the same
education as men all over the world. At the same time, new laws will be passed to prevent girls from
marrying at an early age.

42.Hi!My Name is Zeren K.I'm a student at Özel Ünye Bahçeşehir Koleji Ortaokulu, Turkey. In my
opinion ahead girls exactly men slave resonable.Girls not student.

43.Hi!My name is Peni Alexy and I am from Moldova High School ,,Mesterul Manole``.From my
point of view men and women should live in harmony and this need to be learnt in school and in
family.If this will happen our lifes will be better .Then we will fell safe and respected in our
society.The inequality and sexism should disappear,this is better for us and our future.Future is in our
hands and this is the moment when we should change something!

44. Hello!My name is Mădălina Țurcanu and I am from Moldova, High School ,,Mesterul Manole". I
promote the gender equality. If both men and women will have the same rights we'll live a happier life.
We should respect each other, because the future is in our hands!

45. Hi, my name is Mady Cojocari from Moldova ,High School ,,Meșterul Manole" From my point of
view in the future gender equality will be promoted in more detail and certain projects will be done
based on this issue.

46. Hello, my name is Sabina, and I am student at Hight School,, Meșterul Manole '' from Moldova. I
believe there will only be positive changes about gender equality. World changes through time and I
think there will be more possibilities for women and that they will be able to improve womens status
and rights all around the world.

47. Hello,my name is Adelyna,and I am student at Hight school,,Meșterul Manole" from Moldova.In
my opinion I think that we need to respect each other, because future is based in us.

48. Hi, my name is Elanur, i am student at Hamiyet Sevil from Turkey. I think In order to change the
stereotypes based on gender discrimination at the social level, awareness-raising and awareness-raising
activities should be carried out in all educational institutions, business life, universities, media and
religious communities, starting with the family.

Parents should raise their children sensitive to gender equality They should be taught to distinguish
between biological sex and gender identities, and to socialize their children in line with human rights.
The sense of self-worth should be developed in girls and the concept of boundaries should be adopted

for the good future.

Dystopia Team

1. My name is Adeline Ane-Mari Rus and I am a student at LAM Lipova. I believe that in the future
equality between women and men can change for the worse, because we do not know what equality
is,and we will not know if we are not interested in learning

2. My name is Alex C.I am student at L.A.M and în my opinion in the future women and men would
disrespect each other and create a war of gender sexuality.

3. My name is Matias I.I am student at L.A.M and in my opinion in the future women and men wouldn

good if both genders did not suffer in the future

6. Hello!My name is David I and I am a student at L.A.M.Often, a feminist science fiction novel is
more of a dystopia. ... In a feminist dystopia, the inequality of society or oppression of women is
exaggerated or intensified to highlight the need for change in contemporary society.

7. Hello! My name's Mihaela M. I am a student at L.A.M highschool , Lipova . In my opinion, in the
future if a woman had no rights there would be no equality between women and men, and she would no
longer have the right to anything, not even the right to vote.

future if a woman had no rights there would be no equality between women and men, and she would no
longer have the right to anything, not even the right to vote.

10. Hello! My name is Teodora, from Romania, L.A.M highschool, Lipova. Women's rights are the
rights and entitlements for women and girls worldwide. They formed the basis for the women's rights
movement in the 19th century and the feminist movements during the 20th and 21st centuries. In some
countries, these rights are institutionalized or supported by law, local custom, and behavior, whereas in

others, they are ignored and suppressed. They differ from broader notions of human rights through
claims of an inherent historical and traditional bias against the exercise of rights by women and girls, in
favor of men and boys.

11. Hello, my name is Luana I. from Lipova, L.A.M. and I'm here to say that women are wrong
sometimes too. Women are always bossy in front of their boyfriends/husbands or any other man. They
act like they own the world or like they're always right.Women don't accept a "no", women are very
jealous and over protective, which nobody likes. Bye.

12. My name is Ștefania M.I am a student at L.A.M in Lipova and in my opinion in the future women
and men are gonna be affected about their sexuality and disrespect each other and they won't have
rights because of their sexuality and mental health

13. My name is Mihai R. and I am a student at LAM Lipova. I believe that in the future equality
between women and men can change for the worse, because we do not know what equality is,and we
will not know if we are not interested in learning.

14. My name is Mihai R. and I am a student at LAM Lipova. I believe that in the future equality
between women and men can change for the worse, because we do not know what equality is,and we
will not know if we are not interested in learning.

15. My name's Opriș Bianca. I am a student at Atanasie Marinescu High School, Romania. In my
opinion, in the future, the gender equality will be affected, because women won't have rights, because
people won't be equal, because they aren't respecting each other.

16. My Name is Alecsandra Szabo. I am. Student at LAM Lipova ROMANIA. In my opinion, the
gender equality is very important especially in the future. Equality is a fundamental right. Without that
equality rights women would not be allowed to leave the house and could do nothing. People in the
future should have equal rights, otherwise they will be affected.
17. My name Is Sanda C .I study in LAM Lipova.This series is a clear representation of the obvious
and resigned indifference of people.
People stay regardless of the macroscopic problems that face them . The problem is that humanity has
been losing respect for the land on which it exists. Egoistic humans` view on themselves blocks them
from realizing that they lose the land which they need.
18. My name is Noemi Mercea and I'm a Student at Atanasie Marinescu. In my opinion ,the gender
equality is important in the future.
19. My name is Vuculescu Iulia and i am student at Atanasie Marienescu . I think gender equality is

very important in the future
20. My name is Arian and Im disapointed aout my country's nature We have been witnessing the
following process. On the one hand, people are involved in economic and industrial expansion which
means fast motion of events and inventions with no time to linger and reflect and get shocked at the
simultaneous process of dehumanization. On the other hand, nature needs and must gain back its
physical presence on our planet. Nature follows its own course of development sweeping aside every
human trace, which is tragical.
21. My name is Riana P. I am student at Atanasie Marienescu High School. I think the gender equality
will be affected because women will no longer have equal rights with men.
22. My name is Popescu Dalia and I'm a student at L.A.M. Lipova, RRomania.in my opinion the
gender gaps often get worse before they get better so we can expect worse in the future.
23. My name is Iana B. and i m student at L.A.M Lipova. I think gender equality is important to us.
24. My name is Daniel, and i m student at L.A.M Lipova. I think gender equality gender is important to
as because men and women were created by God to be oane
24. My name is Raluca Francescu and i'm a student at L.A.M Lipova, Romania. In my opinion, in the
future the gender will be affected because women won't have rights, because people won't be equal,
because they aren't each other.
25. My name is Larisa Vancea and i'm a student at L.A.M Lipova,Romania.In my opinion, we need to
shed light on gender and family inequalities and integrate data into research projects so that they know
and start on a more sound basis. ”
26. My name is Alexandra M. and i'm student at L.A.M. Lipova, Romania. Last but not least,
stereotypes are used to justify abuse and violence. Stereotypes are formed from the earliest years of
life, and if students are not helped to look at them with a critical eye, they consolidate as generally
valid truths and come to influence their behaviors, including perceptions of their own abilities.
27. My name is Bianca J and I am a student at LAM Lipova, Romania. I think that in the future,
women won't have the same respect as today and they will be more disrespected because their rights
will dissappear.
28. My name is Ana A. and I am a student at LAM Lipova, Romania. I think that in the future the
power of men will grow, and men will disrespect women even more.
29. My name is Nagy albert and I am a student at L.A.M LIpova ,Romania.In my opinion, In my
opinion, in the future, the gender equality will be affected.
30. My name is Sebi M. and I am a student at L.A.M. Lipova, Romania. I think that in the future
theGender perspectives on education include the analysis of teaching in terms of gender, but also issues

relating to gender wareness issues, initially induced by pre-university education system, and vocational
education: gender exploration in educational practice, teaching strategies that provide equal learning
opportunities for genders, cooperative learning and stimulating gender partnership etc.
31. My name is Oana and I am a student at L.A.M. Lipova,Romania. In many countries, women place
more importance on gender equality than men do. However, women are less optimistic than men that
women in their countries will achieve equality in the future, and they are more likely to say men have
better

33. My name is Balint Andreea and I am a student at L. A. M, Lipova, România. I believe that gender
equality should be respected
34. My name is Rancu Sebastian and I am a student at LAM from Lipova Romania. WomenAbuse
Unfortunately today there are many cases of animal abuse happening around the world. Women cruelty
or abuse can be defined as the infliction of suffering or harm upon womenfor purposes other than self-
defense. There are many different types of abuse such as using women or entertainment purposes,
abandoning them, and neglect. We need to raise awareness and find a solution to these issues.
35. My name is lupu Iulian Nicolae and I am a student at LAM Lipova. I believe that the human rights
need to be respected. The gender equality begins with the human's rights. The human rights include the
right to live free from violence, free from sclavery or discrimination, the right to have access to
education, the right to own a propriety, to vote. These rights are in some places not respected.
36. My name is Avram Denis I am from L.A.M Lipova,Romania.For many years women’s rights
movements have fought hard to address this inequality, campaigning to change laws or taking to the
streets to demand their rights are respected. And new movements have flourished in the digital age,
such as the #MeToo campaign which highlights the prevalence of gender-based violence and sexual
harassment.
37. My name is Alexandra and i am a student at LAM,Lipova. A distopian point of view about
feminism is that women will lose all their rights. Women will be uneducated and their only job willl be
to raise children.
38. My name is Drăgănescu Daniela from Romania, I study at LMA in Lipova and I believe that all
people should be equal in rights and responsibilities. Over time women have been subjected to many

injustices, their merits are still not sufficiently appreciated by the community. Over time the woman
was seen as just a housewife, the one who cared for and fed the children and the one who made them,
which was not right. Women were seen as objects and were treated in a miserable way, today these
abuses still continue and I believe that women should be more respected and protected by society. Even
if there are some differences between women and men as rights should be equal
39. My name is Larisa S and i m student at L.A.M Lipova. I think gender equality is important to us..
40. EMA, Split, Croatia- I think the future for gender equality isnt so bright considering the current
situation in 3rd world countries where women are seen as lesser than men, their only role is to be
housewives and serve their husbands. They arent encouraged to develop their careers and work on their
education like their male counterparts are.Ema Split, Croatia
41. Hello! My name is Popovici Ariana and I am student at LAM Lipova Romania. We all see that
aggression against women is a growing social phenomenon that wants to become a real problem of
today's society. It is a problem that transcends the geographical area, culture or age of those involved in
this phenomenon. I hope to find a solution to this.
42. Gorana, Split – Croatia Today's world is conservative, it takes a long time to get used to something
new. The people who lead this world, powerful people, they put their opinions in power. It's rare to see
outhers accepting changes
43.My name is Saygın E. I'm a student at Özel Ünye Bahçeşehir Ortaokulu, Turkey. In my dystopian
scenario, epidemics and crises will increase in the future. Families will waive their girls' educational
rights to fix their economies. Because the world has a patriarchal view, for this reason, the inequality of
girls and boys in education will increase.
44.My name Deniz E.l'm student at Hamiyet Sevil Ortaokulu,Turkey.Day by day,as the crises and
economies deteriorate,the recruitments that cause negative livelihoods will also begin to change. For
this reason,men will always be seen as superior to women,aş men always start one zero ahead, as
gender discrimination between men and women increases.

It's time for shaping the future of climate crisis in education!

Utopia Team

1 We are heading for a difficult and frightening future to contemplate because of the current situation
that is leading to a bad path for our planet.

First, global emissions are now at record highs, the last four years have been the strongest four in
history, coral reefs are dying, sea levels are rising, and winter temperatures in the Arctic have risen by 3
° C since 1990. Climate change is the defining problem of our time and now is the time to do
something about it. Our actions influence the way our future earth will be.
Now, looking in a utopian / optimistic way, if a large number of people are beginning to realize the
problem with the current situation and are willing to change the world for the better, then we can all
unite and, for example, form large organizations to help endangered animals, even firefighters need
more help with vegetation fires, replanting trees, recycling plastic waste.
Second, saving a planet from its downfall requires a lot of human involvement, and if a world struggles
for the impossible because it is trying to be a utopian world, it would bring the planet back under
control and people will understand each other better. . There would be no more wars, no more fighting,
just understanding and caring for a perfect world.
In conclusion, understanding the problem with our planet now, can change the future in a good, healthy
place to live if people agree to trying to create a utopian world. Anca B, LAM LIpova, Romania
2. Society often looks to culture to try and make some sense of the world’s problems. Climate change
challenges us to look ahead, past our own lives, to consider how the future might look for generations
to come – and our part in this. This responsibility requires imagination.L.A.M,Lipova,Larisa V.
3. Fatima R. Baku European Lyceum, Azerbaijan:
With the global issues concerning climate that we as humans are suffering from today, there are
numbers of students that are held back from their studies in numerous countries. Now back to the root
of said issues, people are the only blame for taking advantage of what the nature initially offered us.
People have constantly pledged a better life for future generations and it is time to hold these promises.
We are powerful creatures that are capable of decision-making and deduction skills hence, if we realize
our might, we can make greater changes and make the world a better place.
4. In my opinion,in the future,the climate will change radically in better,because people will take care
of the enviroment, they will respect the nature,and they will be more responsible. BIANCA O, Atanasie
Marienescu High School,Romania.
5. Musa H. Baku European Lyceum Azerbaijan:
In the most direct sense, extreme weather events such as tropical cyclones may destroy or damage
school buildings, or schools may be used to shelter people who have been displaced from their homes.
This leaves children temporarily unable to attend school, and some kids may never return to their
studies.

6. In the debate on climate change commentators often express pessimistic or optimistic views. We see
this mainly in the media and popular literature, but also in various academic fields. These aspects are
important to distinguish, because a person can be pessimist concerning climate change as an
unmitigated or poorly mitigated process and optimist concerning mitigation of climate change, and be
pessimist concerning one specific mitigation measure and optimist concerning another. It is suggested
that the diversity of pessimistic and optimistic views is due to the uncertainty of scientific climate
models and the influence of evaluative and ideological assumptions. In order to carry out the analysis, a
few conceptual clarifications (or analytic tools) are needed. First, ‘pessimism’ and ‘optimism’ can be
understood in different ways, for example as: a psychological process or state of expecting a negative
or positive, respectively, outcome of processes or actions,an argued position of expecting a negative or
positive, respectively, outcome of processes or actions.
Second, in the context of climate change, pessimism and optimism may concern different aspects. A
person can be a pessimist regarding some aspects and an optimist regarding others. For example,
pessimism and optimism may concern:
(a) climate change as an unmitigated or poorly mitigated process,
(b) mitigation of climate change,
(c) specific measures of mitigation of climate change,
(d) adaptation to climate change, or
(e) specific measures of adaptation to climate change.
Ecomodernists are often called techno-optimists. The term puzzles me. Most ecomodernists are
pessimistic about the likely trajectory of climate change–they think warming above 2°C is now
inevitable. Most are pessimistic about the potential for existing technologies to achieve decarbonization
… They are pessimistic about proposals for intermittent renewable energy … [E]comodernists are
pessimistic about the prospects for international cooperation … So why are ecomodernists called
optimists? I think it’s because, despite the real risk that climate change will prove catastrophic, they
argue that through the wise use of science a ‘good Anthropocene’ could be possible (Symons, 2019,
25–26). We see here that ecomodernists are considered pessimists concerning climate change as an
unmitigated or poorly mitigated process (2a). Moreover, they are pessimists concerning various
specific mitigation measures such as the use of existing technologies, renewable energy and
international cooperation (2c). Nevertheless, ecomodernists are optimists concerning certain other
mitigation measures (2c) and mitigation in general (2b). Through a “wise” application of science they
expect a good future for humankind. So, ecomodernists are pessimists concerning some aspects and
optimists concerning others. As we will see below, this holds also for other positions in the debate on

climate change. The various positions on pessimism/optimism concerning climate change are based on
certain assumptions about climate change. In my analysis I focus only on positions that accept the
following assumptions: (i) climate change is real, (ii) climate change is to a substantial extent caused
by human action (mainly the use of fossil fuels), andClimate optimism based on a denial of the reality
of climate change, or on a denial that it is to a substantial extent caused by human action, or on a denial
that it is a serious and urgent problem, will not be discussed. Positions accepting (i), (ii) and (iii) may
still differ on (iii), that is, on how serious and urgent the problem of climate change is thought to be.
(iii) climate change is a serious and urgent problem. David P, LAM Lipova, Romania
7. Climate change in the future from an optimistic point of view
Given the reasons for climate change, scientists have plans or are working on plans to prevent or stop
it. We are confident that they will find ways to prevent the disasters they say are imminent.
Three things are important to climate chaos and our response to it - the science that reports on current
and potential conditions, the technology that offers solutions, and the organisation that changes
perspectives and policies. Both are making rapid progress. Science usually gives us frightening news
about more melting, more storms, more droughts, more fires and more famines. But technological
solutions and organisational success to address these greatest of crises have also been growing by leaps
and bounds. The ideas of the 2019 Green New Deal, considered radical at the time, are now routinely
proposed by President Biden in his infrastructure and jobs plans.
It's not easy to see all the changes - you have to be a nerd to follow the details on new battery storage
solutions, or the growth of solar energy in terms of price, market penetration, efficiency and
opportunity, or new insights on agriculture and land management to improve carbon sequestration. You
have to be a policy nerd to follow the myriad of new initiatives around the world. In December, for
example, the UK pledged to end fossil fuel financing abroad; in January, the EU decided to "discourage
further investment in fossil fuel-based energy infrastructure projects in third countries"; and this spring,
the US made a less comprehensive but significant attempt to limit financing for oil production abroad.
In April, oil-rich California pledged to stop fossil fuel production altogether - albeit with too generous a
deadline. Many of these measures have been judged both good and not good enough. They do not get
us where we need to be, but they lay the groundwork for further change, and like the Green New Deal,
many of them seemed unlikely a few years ago. The organisation Carbon Tracker, whose reports
usually make grim reading, has just published a report so overwhelming that the word "encouraging" is
hardly appropriate. In summary, today's technology could generate hundreds of times as much
electricity from solar and wind power as is currently in demand worldwide; solar energy prices
continue to fall rapidly and dramatically; and the land needed to generate all this energy would take up

less land than is currently used for fossil fuels. It is a vision of a completely different planet, because if
we change the way we generate energy, we change our geopolitics - for the better - clean our air and
renew our future. The report concludes: "The technical and economic obstacles have been overcome
and the only obstacle to change is political." These obstacles seemed insurmountable at the end of the
last millennium. One of the things that has long been striking about this crsis is that the amateurs and
novices tend to be more alarmist and defeatist than the insiders and experts. Climate journalist Emily
Atkin calls them "climate novices" who proclaim in long, breathless magazine articles, best-selling
books and films that it is too late and we are doomed. Climate scientist Michael Mann takes aim at
these people - he calls them inactionists and prophets of doom - in his recent book The New Climate
Wars, in which he describes the defeatism that has replaced overt climate denial as the biggest obstacle
to addressing the crisis. Echoing the arguments of Carbon Tracker, he writes: "The solution is already
here. We just need to implement it quickly and on a large scale. It just comes down to political will and
economic incentives." Climate scientist Diana Liverman shares Mann's frustration. She was part of the
international team of scientists who wrote the 2018 Greenhouse Earth study, whose conclusions were
truncated by the media to "we have 12 years". Visionary organiser Adrienne Maree Brown recently
wrote: "I believe that all organising is science fiction - that we are creating the future we long for and
have not yet experienced. I believe that we are in a battle of the imagination..." All these voices have
taken the side of hope in the battle of imagination, offering choices and the responsibilities that come
with them. Adeline R, LAM Lipova, Romania
8. Climate change
"Climate change is a global problem. The planet is warming because of the growing level of
greenhouse gas emissions from human activity. If this trend continues, truly catastrophic consequences
are likely to ensue from rising sea levels to reduced water availability, to more heat waves and fires."-
Malcolm Turnbull”.
The rapid climate change we are now seeing is caused by humans using oil, gas and coal for their
homes, factories and transport.
Digitization is the answer to global warming. If this is done, global warming will be slowed down, with
people being relieved of the catastrophes that could occur as a result of global warming. On the other
hand, if global warming is not stopped, the following will take place: melting glaciers, sea level rise,
decrease in living areas, increasing extreme weather conditions, expansion of desert areas, the rise of
catastrophic atmospheric phenomena, increased volcanic activity, qnimal death and species extinction
decreased drinking water, rising diseases, increased number of mosquitoes and similar infections, loss
of crops, decreased hydroelectric power production, low economic growth in the states etc. In

conclusion, global warming can be stopped if digitization is done, but uncontrolled can make great
catastrophes. Rahela G, LAM Lipova, Romania
9. 5 possible climate futures—from the optimistic to the strange
The five scenarios that form the backbone of the latest IPCC report tell radically different stories about
humanity’s future:
The UN’s latest report on the state of the climate offers a stark warning that humanity’s future could be
filled with apocalyptic natural disasters. But that future isn’t set in stone. Depending on global
economic trends, technological progress, geopolitical developments, and most important, how
aggressively we act to reduce carbon emissions, the world at the end of the 21st century could turn out
to be radically different. Or not.
The spectrum of possible futures that await us underpin the projections of the Intergovernmental Panel
on Climate Change’s (IPCC) Sixth Assessment Report, whose first chapter on the physical science of
climate change was released last week. The new report features five climate narratives that differ in
terms of the level of projected warming and society’s ability to adapt to the changes ahead. Each
narrative pairs a different socioeconomic development scenario with a different carbon emissions
pathway, resulting in a Choose Your Own Adventure-style series of endings to the story of 21st-century
climate change.
In some of those endings, humanity rises to the climate challenge while making concurrent efforts to
reduce poverty and improve quality of life for everyone. The world is hotter and the weather is more
dangerous, but the worst climate impacts are averted and societies are able to adapt.
For the IPCC’s Fifth Assessment Report, released in 2013 and 2014, modelers used a series of
“representative concentration pathways,” or RCPs, to project our climate future. The RCP scenarios
differ based on the amount of effort humanity puts into limiting climate change, ranging from the high-
mitigation, low-emissions RCP-2.6 scenario to the no-mitigation, high-emissions RCP-8.5 scenario.
The number following each scenario indicates “radiative forcing,” or how much extra energy our
emissions add to the Earth system, measured in watts per square meter, by 2100. When Earth receives
more energy via radiative forcing, temperatures rise.
The scenarios underpinning the Sixth Assessment Report contain additional human elements that make
them a bit more complex to decode. Like the RCPs, each includes an emissions pathway represented by
end-of-century radiative forcing—in this case, ranging from a best case of 1.9 watts per square meter to
a sci-fi disaster movie-like 8.5 watts per square meter.
The 1.9 scenario, which limits global warming to below 2.7 degrees Fahrenheit (1.5 degrees Celsius),
was added to the latest IPCC report as a direct result of nations adopting a 1.5°C global warming target

in the Paris Agreement, according to Zeke Hausfather, who directs climate and energy at The

Breakthrough Institute, an environmental research center focused on technological solutions. Like its

predecessor, the Sixth Assessment also includes 2.6 and 4.5 watts per square meter radiative forcing

scenarios, as well as a high-end scenario of 7 watts per square meter.

The biggest change in the new report is that these emissions pathways don’t stand alone. Each of them

is paired with a “shared socioeconomic pathway” (SSP): a 21st century global development scenario

that includes projections of population and economic growth, as well as technological and geopolitical

trends—all of which can affect both emissions and our ability to reduce them and adapt to the climate

change they create. Each of the SSP scenarios can be paired with multiple emissions pathways,

resulting in many potential storylines. Alexandru L, LAM Lipova, Romania

10. The impacts of climate change have already been observed and are expected to become more

pronounced. Extreme weather events, including heat waves, droughts and floods, are expected to

become more frequent and intense. In Europe, the highest temperature rises are in southern Europe and

the Arctic. Rainfall decreases in southern Europe and increases in the north / northwest. This has

impacts on natural ecosystems, human health and water resources. Economic sectors such as forestry,

agriculture, tourism and construction will largely bear the brunt of the consequences. The agricultural

sector in northern Europe can benefit from a limited increase in temperature.

In order to halt the loss of biodiversity, global greenhouse gas emissions need to be significantly

reduced, and specific policies are being set for this purpose. Mădălina Cericov LT MEȘTERUL

11. The future reimagined

It is this primacy of the imagination that makes fictional dealings with climate change so valuable. Cli-

fi author Nathaniel Rich, who wrote Odds Against Tomorrow (2013) – a novel in which a gifted

mathematician is hired to predict worst-case environmental scenarios – has said: I think we need a new

type of novel to address a new type of reality, which is that we’re headed toward something terrifying

and large and transformative. And it’s the novelist’s job to try to understand, what is that doing to us?

When now is the time that we need to act, the rarer utopian form of cli-fi is perhaps more useful. These

works imagine future worlds where humanity has responded to climate change in a more timely and

resourceful manner. They conjure up futures where human and non-human lives have been adapted,

where ways of living have been reimagined in the face of environmental disaster. Scientists, and policy

makers – and indeed the public – can look to these works as a source of hope and inspiration.

12. In the debate on climate change commentators often express pessimistic or optimistic views. We
see this mainly in the media and popular literature, but also in various academic fields. The aim of this
paper is to investigate different kinds of pessimistic and optimistic views put forward in this debate and
suggest explanations of the diversity of views. The paper concludes that pessimism and optimism may
concern, for example, climate change as an unmitigated or poorly mitigated process, mitigation of
climate change or specific measures of mitigation. These aspects are important to distinguish, because a
person can be pessimist concerning climate change as an unmitigated or poorly mitigated process and
optimist concerning mitigation of climate change, and be pessimist concerning one specific mitigation
measure and optimist concerning another. It is suggested that the diversity of pessimistic and optimistic
views is due to the uncertainty of scientific climate models and the influence of evaluative and
ideological assumptions. Anelize V, LAM Lipova, Romania
13. The future reimagined As the UN 2019 Climate Action Summit attempts to bring the 2015 Paris
Agreement up to speed, we need fiction that not only offers us new ways to look forward, but which
also renders the inequalities of climate change explicit. It is also key that culturally we at least try to
imagine a fairer world for all, rather than only visions of doom. When now is the time that we need to
act, the rarer utopian form of cli-fi is perhaps more useful. These works imagine future worlds where
humanity has responded to climate change in a more timely and resourceful manner. They conjure up
futures where human and non-human lives have been adapted, where ways of living have been
reimagined in the face of environmental disaster. Scientists, and policy makers and indeed the public
can look to these works as a source of hope and inspiration. Catalin T, LAM Lipova, Romania
14. By six arguments not widely recognized in the climate policy arena, we argue that unrealistic
technology optimism exists in current climate change mitigation assessments, and, consequently, world
energy and climate policy. The overarching theme of the arguments
is that incomplete knowledge of indirect effects, and neglect of interactions between parts of physical
and social sub-systems, systematically leads to overly optimistic assessments. Society must likely seek
deeper changes in social and economic structures to preserve the climatic conditions to which the
human civilization is adapted. We call for priority to be given to research evaluating aspects of
mitigation in a broad, system-wide perspective Nicholas H, LAM Lipova, Romania
15. The consequences of global warming are not desirable but, looking from a utopian way there are
also positive effects of climate change. If adapted to the new conditions, the economy could benefit
from global warming, and in terms of public health, the number of illnesses and deaths caused by cold
winters could decrease significantly. Melting glaciers open new shipping routes to Asia and the Pacific,

which means shorter roads and shorter time. By: Buhna Mishelle High school ,,Mesterul Manole,,
Moldova
16. Essay about the climate in the future from an utopian/optimistic Climate change is a current priority
issue, as both the natural and socio-economic systems are sensitive to climate change, and the
magnitude of the projected speed will have a significant impact on the sustainability of these systems.
Ecosystems, wildlife and humans are generally able to adapt to climate change that occurs over long
periods of time. So far, researchers have not agreed on how quickly the changes will take place.
However, the impact of human activities on the climate can be measured in a few decades, not
centuries or millennia. The motivation to act on climate change is not necessarily to be found in what
mankind has observed so far, but in what anticipates scientific models for the near future. Climate
change unprecedented in human history. Human activities increase greenhouse gas concentrations,
which will warm the atmosphere and induce regional and global climate change.The different nature of
these interacting subsystems generates climate variability. The complexity of the climate system means
that climate variability manifests itself in a wide range of frequencies, starting with short-term
variability (up to several years) and continuing with long-term variability (up to centuries, millennia)
and their overlap leads to observed climatic variability. In the short term, they are known as
fluctuations /oscillations, which are very common, while long-term variations are associated with
climate change. The sun is the main player in the climate system, emitting solar radiation that heats the
Earth. Solar energy is stronger in the equatorial regions, with the intensity of solar radiation decreasing
towards the poles. This determines the types of wind and ocean currents that influence the development
of climate systems. The atmosphere acts as a protective blanket, maintaining the temperature conducive
to life on Earth and shielding the sun's harmful rays. Made up of several distinct layers, the atmosphere
acts as a "deposit" for various gases and particles. Both the structure of the atmosphere and the way in
which air circulation is achieved have a considerable effect on the climate and climate systems,
including the precipitation regime. The Earth's atmosphere is made up of 78% nitrogen (N2), 21%
oxygen (O2) and 1% other gases. Carbon dioxide (CO2) represents 0.03-0.04%, while water vapor
(H2O) varies between 0 and 2%. The oceans cover about three quarters of the Earth's surface. The
cooling water heats up more slowly than the air, thus moderating the climate in the decoy areas. Ocean
currents help distribute heat around the globe, moving tropical waters to the poles and colder waters to
the equator; thus, the oceans strongly influence regional climates. The oceans are also an important
source of carbon and play a major role in absorbing some of the anthropogenic carbon dioxide. Water,
in all its forms, has an important and complex role in climatic processes. The average amount of
precipitation (rain or snow) that an area receives is an important climatic component. Water helps to

cool the earth's surface (through evaporation), reflects solar energy (water in the form of clouds or ice
sheets) simentine Warm Earth (through water vapor). Terrestrial structures and their characteristics - for
example forests, deserts and mountains - can influence both the global climate and the regional climate.
The soil heats up and cools faster than water, affecting the flow of air currents and the formation of
climate systems. The type of terrestrial surface influences the amount of solar energy that is reflected or
absorbed by the Earth. White areas, such as snow, reflect sunlight, while dark areas absorb more heat.
Alexia A, LAM Lipova, Romania
17. Climatic changes (optimistic point of view) Climate change is an interesting idea for studies, but at
the same time, weather can be beautiful every season of the year.Sometimes in the cold seasons, we
have sunny days with high temperatures and on these days I go out with my friends to play football or
go for a walk. Another good thing about climate changes is scientists' studies can be made all around
the year.In conclusion, climatic changes can have good things. Denis B, LAM Lipova, Romania
18. Climate in the future from an utopian/optimistic point of view
The climate in the future doesn’t mean major changes. A lot of people have heard about global
warming. But what does global warming really do to us?
Even if the planet is warmer, that doesn’t mean the plants, animals and humans can’t adapt like they did
before. Every living being on this planet has been through a lot of evolutionary stages. Even if we don`t
notice it, we`re all changing, including plants, animals and humans. We are evolving through every
generation, so warmer temperatures shouldn`t be a problem. The Earth has been in some eras of hot
climates and cold ones. Maybe in the future, the climate will be even better than now!
The humans have achieved many academical knowledge and I think that in the future will exist a
weather machine. That means we can change the weather if we want or have to. This can be possible,
I`m sure of it.
The future is a chance for us to change anything we want. By remembering the mistakes we did in the
past, we will be able to change the future.
So, if we try and work hard, we will have the world we dream about. Cristian L, LAM Lipova,
Romania
19. Climate in the vision of a utopian Over tens of hundreds of millions, the Earth has gone through
various periods, from ice ages to spectacular temperature rises. All these things were valid on the
current territory of Romania. "There was also a tropical climate on the Romanian territory. That is why
we have a lot of limestone in Romania, because in fact limestone is formed in tropical seas, where
corals and other living things grow that secrete calcite shells, and when these organisms die, then they
accumulate on the seabed and so on. limestone is created. If we look at Romania, 50 million years ago

it was a climate of this kind, with much higher temperatures than we have now and which allowed the
formation of limestone and other rocks that we find only in these tropical environments ", the teacher
explains. In fact, he says, globally, 50 million years ago, temperatures were much higher than they are
today. Endless forests covered even the South Pole, an area now devoid of any vegetation and covered
with miles of ice caps. "Globally, if we compare the climate now and then, the temperature was about
15 degrees Celsius higher globally. I didn't have any ice caps, the sea level was much higher than it is
now. Gradually, after this period, the climate began to cool. The causes of this cooling are related to the
carbon cycle and the gradual decrease in the concentration of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. Which
obviously happens through natural processes ", adds Ersek. Over tens of hundreds of millions, the

20. Climate in a utopia vision Report. In the optimistic scenario that countries are keeping their
promises to reduce greenhouse gases, global temperatures will rise by +2.4 degrees Celsius by the end
of the century, well above the level of a climate catastrophe. The forecast was made by the Climate
Action Tracker (CAT), a coalition of many researchers, which analyzed the goals set by world leaders
for the next ten years. CAT said that at the end of this time, the volume of carbon emissions will be
twice as high as it should be, in order for the 2015 Paris target to be met. The survey contrasts sharply
with the optimism that marked the first week of the COP26 in Glasgow. Based on long-term goals,
countries predicted a rise in global temperature by 1.8 to 1.9 degrees above pre-Industrial Revolution
levels. "Many of the participants in the conference tried to present the situation as if the Paris 2015 goal
was being achieved, but we are very far from that. They minimize the need for short-term measures in
line with the 1.5 degree target ”; said Bill Hare, CAT member. "It's great that countries want to achieve
long-term climate neutrality, but the gap between them needs to be reduced with short-term measures,
Glasgow has a serious credibility gap"; Hare added. The Paris Climate Agreement stipulates that
humanity must work to keep the Earth warming to "much less than 2 degrees Celsius" by the end of the
century, the optimistic target of + 1.5 degrees Celsius. If the goal is missed, the planet's ocean level will
rise, and extreme weather events such as storms, floods, droughts or wildfires will occur all over the
globe. Commitments in the first week of the UN Climate Conference: • More than 190 countries and
organizations have announced plans to phase out coal, with different deadlines and commitments. The
signatories do not include Australia, China, India or the USA. • More than 80 countries have pledged to
reduce their methane emissions by 30% by 2030. Russia, China and India have not joined the
agreement.Claudiu S, LAM Lipova, Romania
21. Climate in the future - Utopian point of view – Being “hopeful” about climate change requires a
strong foundation of reality. As stewards of our planet for generations to come, climate science and
projections are not just useful but essential to informing and strengthening local, national and
international responses to climate change impacts. Climate science is necessary in order to prepare for
and respond to present and future challenges, but also to benefit from the opportunities that may
emerge with change. In developing countries, adaptive responses are often characterized by

inventiveness and creativity, which are key to circumventing the challenges posed by limited resources
and institutional
barriers. In the climate change field, in particular, actions are worth more than a thousand words.
Examples of these responses are highlighted yearly as part of the UNFCCC’s Momentum for Change
initiative, demonstrating that ingenuity in climate action is making a difference. Among them, a project
by a women-led NGO in Morocco is harvesting fog from the air to provide drinking water for people
on the edge of Morocco’s Sahara Desert, and, in Seangor, Malaysia, a Connected Mangroves initiative
is combining cloud, machine-to-machine and mobile broadband to help the local community to better
manage the growth of new mangrove saplings. The sustainability of climate change strategies is a
crucial component in the achievement of a resilient future. New forms of entrepreneurship suggest that
it is possible—and increasingly necessary—to combine adaptive responses with income generation
opportunities. For example, the Women’s Empowerment for Resilience and Adaptation Against Climate
Change initiative has formed an “association of women-led groups that collect individual-savings of at
least USD 1 once a week to generate a pool of funds, from which women borrow and invest into
income-generating activities that address climate change. This initiative also empowers women
undertakeland planning, agro-forestry and soil conservation practices and use energy saving stoves.” To
date, 126 parties have ratified the Paris Agreement. Change is already underway. Being hopeful is not
at all about denying or minimizing the role of climate change science. It is about understanding it and
using it to shape our future, with the conviction that we still can—and will—make a positive impact on
the lives of the most vulnerable. It is about owning the consequences of our actions on the
environment, on each other and on future generations. It is about constantly recognizing, learning from
and being inspired by emerging “bastions of hope.” It is about engaging in a constructive dialogue with
the pessimists and the skeptics, and meeting somewhere in the middle in order to enable action and
change. Mihaela S, LAM LIpova, Romania
22. A fantastical utopia - a hopeful essay for the future.
The year is 2070. Technology has come a long way since 2022. We now have fully renewable energy,
and climate change has changed for the better from most of the world switching to renewable energy.
The use of fossil fuels was banned worldwide after a meeting of the United Nations occurred in 2025.
At the start, people were skeptical of the power that renewable energy held over the climate. Many
people and many politicians criticised this decision; but their hands were forced to do the right thing.
And, as a result, the entire world is better off now.
Highly polluted cities like Hotan, China have returned to normal. The population of these cities can
now live healthy lives free of any unnecessary manmade plagues.

Countless hours of work by teams of scientists allowed the evolution of synthetic wood products. As it
stands today, synthetic wood is far easier and cheaper to produce than normal wood, while also being
more durable. Deforestation rates have plummeted as a result, and soon enough, the damages to nature
caused by man-made machines will be completely reverted and Earth will return to being a healthy,
green planet.
The sidewalks of every street are full of fruit trees, to help the homeless have a healthy meal source.
Blue collar workers are often helped by eco-friendly robot assistants that accompany and help when
needed. In general, the world is just a better place.
Is this future really just a fantastical utopia, or can we do something to make it a reality?
The only thing we, as ordinary citizens can do to combat these problems is to simply spread awareness.
Can we do that? Just a small, simple click of a button to share a link to an article could help inspire
kindness and hope into other people. I don't know if that's asking too much for most people, but for
those that do decide to spread awareness - you are making a difference. Florin U, LAM Lipova,
Romania.
23. Greenhouse gas concentrations are at their highest levels in 2 million yearsEmissions continue to
rise. As a result, the Earth is now about 1.1°C warmer than it was in the late 1800s. The last decade
(2011-2020) was the warmest on record.
Many people think climate change mainly means warmer temperatures. But temperature rise is only the
beginning of the story. Because the Earth is a system, where everything is connected, changes in one
area can influence changes in all others.
The consequences of climate change now include, among others, intense droughts, water scarcity,
severe fires, rising sea levels, flooding, melting polar ice, catastrophic storms and declining
biodiversity.
HOW CAN WE SOLVE CLIMATE CHANGE? Regreening can help us to do this! Recent studies
show that nature-based solutions can contribute up to 37% of the carbon emission intake required to
keep global warming below 2 degrees Celsius. Vegetation cause the sequestration of carbon, decreasing
the amount of carbon in the atmosphere and subsequently reducing the greenhouse effect, ultimately
leading to the mitigation of global warming. Vegetation also causes cooling of the soil, decreasing the
evaporation of water from the soil leading to increased water availability for plants, animals and
humans. In addition, greening stimulates the water cycle, causing increased rainfall and the retention of
water in the soil. This increase in the soil moisture content makes the land available for agriculture
again, producing food and income for the local communities

We face a huge challenge but already know many solutions Many climate change solutions can deliver
economic benefits while improving our lives and protecting the environment. We also have global
agreements to guide progress, such as the UN Framework Convention on Climate Change and the Paris
Agreement. Three broad categories of action are: cutting emissions, adapting to climate impacts and
financing required adjustments.Switching energy systems from fossil fuels to renewables like solar or
wind will reduce the emissions driving climate change. But we have to start right now. While a growing
coalition of countries is committing to net zero emissions by 2050, about half of emissions cuts must be
in place by 2030 to keep warming below 1.5°C. Fossil fuel production must decline by roughly 6 per
cent per year between 2020 and 2030.
CLIMATE IN THE FUTURE
Climate action requires significant financial investments by governments and businesses. But climate
inaction is vastly more expensive. One critical step is for industrialized countries to fulfil their
commitment to provide $100 billion a year to developing countries so they can adapt and move towards
greener economies.
Adapting to climate consequences protects people, homes, businesses, livelihoods, infrastructure and
natural ecosystems. It covers current impacts and those likely in the future. Adaptation will be required
everywhere, but must be prioritized now for the most vulnerable people with the fewest resources to
cope with climate hazards. The rate of return can be high. Early warning systems for disasters, for
instance, save lives and property, and can deliver benefits up to 10 times the initial cost Iulia V, LAM

24. The climate în the future I think that the climate în the future will very good.More and more people
are happy to help the planet.it will be good if everyone will help.the animals will have more space to
live the animals în the sea won't die so easy and the planet will feel more better and will be full of
Joy.Maybe în the future it will not be necessary to move on another planet.Arian A, LAM Lipova,

25. CLIMATE IN THE FUTURE FROM AN UTOPIAN POINT OF VIEW WE FACE A HUGE
CHALLENGE BUT ALREADY KNOW MANY SOLUTIONS
Many climate change solutions can deliver economic benefits while improving our lives and protecting
the environment. We also have global agreements to guide progress, such as the UN Framework
Convention on Climate Change and the Paris Agreement . Three broad categories of action are cutting
emissions, adapting to climate impacts and financing required adjustments.
Switching energy systems from fossil to renewables like solar or wind will reduce the emissions
driving climate change. But we have to start right now . While a growing coalition of countries is

committing to net zero emissions by 2050, about half of emissions cuts must be in place by 2030 to
keep warming below 1.5 C. Fossil fuel production must decline by roughly 6 per cent per year between
2020 and 2030.
FUTURE REIMAGINED
Utopian novels implore us to use our human ingenuity to adapt to troubled times. Kim Stanley
Robinson is very good exemple of this type of thinking . His works were inspired by Ursula Le Guin,
in particular her novel The Dispossessed which led the way for the utopian novel form. It depicts a
planet with a vision of universal access to food shelter and community as well as gender and racial
equality ,despite being set on a parched desert moon.
A utopia typically describes an imaginary community or society that possesses highly desirable or
nearly perfect qualities for its members. It was coined by Sir Thomas More for his 1516 book Utopia,
describing a fictional island society in the New World. However, it may also denote an intentional
community Iana B, LAM Lipova, Romania
26. Climate in the future Optimistic point of view
The good news about climate change
With more frequent and extreme weather events, melting glaciers, and rising sea levels, there is no
question that the climate crisis is here now and the impacts are felt by humans and nature alike. But
there is good news: every day we see more individuals, organizations, businesses, and governments
responding to the crisis. People are coming together to take concrete steps to mitigate the worst impacts
of climate change.
By working together, we can change course. We can pave a path forward to a future in which
businesses rely on renewable energy, cities rethink waste disposal and transportation, and work with
communities and individuals to avoid the worst impacts of climate change.
What are some of the signs of climate change?
• Temperatures are rising world-wide due to greenhouse gases trapping more heat in the atmosphere.
• Droughts are becoming longer and more extreme around the world.
• Tropical storms becoming more severe due to warmer ocean water temperatures.
• As temperatures rise there is less snowpack in mountain ranges and polar areas and the snow melts
faster.
• Overall, glaciers are melting at a faster rate.
• Sea ice in the Arctic Ocean around the North Pole is melting faster with the warmer temperatures.
• Permafrost is melting, releasing methane, a powerful greenhouse gas, into the atmosphere.
• Sea levels are rising, threatening coastal communities and estuarine ecosystems.

Why climate change is good for the world
Climate change has done more good than harm so far and is likely to continue doing so for most of this
century. This is not some barmy, right-wing fantasy; it is the consensus of expert opinion. Yet almost
nobody seems to know this. Whenever I make the point in public, I am told by those who are paid to
insult anybody who departs from climate alarm that I have got it embarrassingly wrong, don’t know
what I am talking about, must be referring to Britain only, rather than the world as a whole, and so
forth.
At first, I thought this was just their usual bluster. But then I realised that they are genuinely unaware.
Good news is no news, which is why the mainstream media largely ignores all studies showing net
benefits of climate change. And academics have not exactly been keen to push such analysis forward.
So here follows, for possibly the first time in history, an entire article in the national press on the net
benefits of climate change. Noemi M, LAM Lipova, Romania
27. If the climate in the future is good, all seasons will be in their time and the weather in the world
will be pleasant and healthy for all mankind. The air would no longer be polluted and the fires would
disappear, and society would be much better for all of us. „The past cannot perish, for the future will be
born of it „ Mihaela M, LAM Lipova, Romania
28. The climate in the future: Utopia point of view Everyone is working hard to deal with those
changes and if we keep this up we will have an amazing life. The government is ensuring us that we are
going to have a greener world. “What we saw in 2021 was a number of accelerated 2030 targets by
major regions and economies, which will require reducing carbon emissions by around 40 percent in
2030 compared to 2019 levels,” says Charlotta Groth. “So, I suspect that in a year or two we will know
if those new targets were empty promises or dreams – or whether they were for real.”. It was just a
matter of time before we could win this battle whit the climate change. Dalia P, LAM Lipova, Romania
29. CLIMATE IN THE FUTURE From an utopian point of view
CLIMATE IN THE FUTURE Climate action requires significant financial investments by goverments
and businesses. But climate inaction is vastly more expensive. One critical step is for industrialized
countries to fulfil their commitment to provide $100 billion a year to developing countries so they can
adapt and move towards greener economies
PREDICTIONS OF FUTURE GLOBAL CLIMATE Scientists from around the world with the
Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) tell us that during the past 100 years, the world's
surface air temperature increased an average of 0.6° Celsius (1.1°F) due to burning fossil fuels that
releases carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases into the atmosphere, This may not sound like very
much change, but even one degree can impact the Earth in many ways. Climate models predict that

Earth's global average temperature will rise and additional 4° C (7.2° F) during the 21st Century if
greenhouse gas levels continue to rise. But with swift action to reduce greenhouse gas emissions,
models project that global average temperature will only rise an additional 1° Celsius (1.8° F)
WHAT ARE THE SOLUTIONS TO CLIMATE CHANGE? Climate change is already an urgent threat
to millions of lives – but there are solutions. From changing how we get our energy to limiting
deforestation, here are some of the key solutions to climate change. The main ways to stop climate
change are to pressure government and business to:
-Keep fossil fuels in the ground. Fossil fuels include coal, oil and gas – and the more that are extracted
and burned, the worse climate change will get
-Invest in renewable energy. Changing our main energy sources to clean and renewable energy is the
best way to stop using fossil fuels.
-Restore nature to absorb more carbon. The natural world is very good at cleaning up our emissions,
but we need to look after it
-Protect forests like the Amazon. Forests are crucial in the fight against climate change, and protecting
them is an important climate solution.
-Protect the oceans. Oceans also absorb large amounts of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, which
helps to keep our climate stable. Riana P, LAM Lipova, Romania
30. Climate in the future from an optimistic point of view
Climate in the present vs Climate in the past The climate in the world today is very different from the
climate in the past. If now in January it is 3 degrees Celsius, in the past it was -15 degrees Celsius.
OUR CLIMATE, OUR FUTURE! A good climate in the future can change our lives in good and make
us happier, because a beautiful climate make us feel good. ☺
Climate Changing If the future climate will change in good, that means that each season will be in its
time. That is, the winter will snow and it will be very cold, the spring will be warm, the summer will be
much warmer than the spring and the autumn will be a little rainy and the weather will be colder and
the temperature will change slow. Alecsandra S, LAM Lipova, Romania
31. The global climate in the future
Global warming occurs due to the increase not carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. Greenhouse gas is a
major cause of increasing CO2.
Global warming is an an issue as
1. The glaciers are melting in the mountains leading to flood.
2. The ozone layer is depleting due to global warming.
3.The climate patterns are changing and the earth is becoming warmer.

Global warming is a major concern for all of us.And it is caused by us only. If global warming
increases continuously , a time will come when the whole earth will submerge . The ozone layer is
depleting which protects us from the UV rays of sun but because of depletion of ozone diseases will
occur due to the effect of UV rays of sun. Andrei C, LAM Lipova, Romania
32. An optimistic view of the climate change
1. Thankfully among this dizzying array , we can save the planet before climate change will destroy it .
2. Another optimistic view is the fact that the Governments are doing ,,MAYBE’’ everything to prevent
the climate change.
3. And the last one is that in the last years thankfully the covid-19 (sars cov 2) didn”t affect the
climate . =) Ianis D, LAM Lipova, Romania
33. The global climate in the future The global warming Global warming is a term that everyone is
familiar with. But, it is still not clear to most of us. Global warming refers to the rise of temperatures
around the globe in a very short time. This event is very harmful for the planet. The global warming
makes the glaciers to melt and this makes the oceans to rise their level. The animals also suffer because
the glaciers are their natural habitat. The consequences The consequences of the global warming are:
The thinning of the ozone layer. The ozone layer is in the Earth’s stratosphere and it protects us from
the sun’s UV radiations that are toxic for the human body. The melting of the glaciers. If the glaciers
are melting, a lot of animals will disappear from our planet because the glaciers are their natural
habitat. The ocean level rising. If the oceans will rise, a lot of people will drown and a lot of proprieties
will be damaged cause of the water.
How we can stop this We can stop this if we understand that the global warming is a serious thing, not
a fake new. The first step is to find the cause of the problem. Then, we need to understand the causes
and find the solutions that will help us to combat the global warming. There isn’t just one cause, there
are several causes. The problems that cause this big problem can be natural, caused by natural
phenomena or because of the humans. It’s very difficult to combat the global warming, but it’s not
impossibile. The causes The natural causes can be the volcanic eruptions that are responsible because
they release tons of carbon dioxide that accentuates the global warming and destroys the ozone layer
that is in the stratosphere of the planet and protects us from the sun's UV rays.The causes can be
because of the humans, too. The first one can be the automobiles, the factories and the burning of the
fuel. This is a major factor in global warming and we need to stop this using electric cars, walking by
the bike or to walk. It’s ecological and very healthy for us.

My point of view I have an optimistic point of view because I believe that everyone can realize that we
need to stop the global warming, because we can destroy our planet, or we can protect it. I know this is
hard, but we need to try. Iulian L, LAM Lipova, Romania
34. The Climate Future The climate started changing a long time ago due to human activities but we
came to know about it in the last century. During the last century, we started noticing the climatic
change and its effect on human life. We started researching on climate change and came to know that
the earth temperature is rising due to a phenomenon called the greenhouse effect. The warming up of
earth surface causes many ozone depletion, affect our agriculture, water supply, transportation, and
several other problems. Sami M, LAM Lipova, Romania
35. Climate in the future We are headed towards a future that is hard to contemplate. At present, global
emissions are reaching record levels the past four years have been the four hottest on record, coral reefs
are dying, sea levels are rising and winter temperatures in the Arctic have risen by 3°C since 1990.
Climate change is the defining issue of our time and now is the moment to do something about it. But
what? Society often looks to culture to try and make some sense of the world’s problems. Climate
change challenges us to look ahead, past our own lives, to consider how the future might look for
generations to come and our part in this. This responsibility requires imagination. Rares P, LAM
Lipova, Romania
36. In recent years, the climate on Earth has changed markedly: some countries suffer from anomalous
heat, others from too harsh and snowy winters unusual forthese places. Environmentalists talk about
global climate change including an increase in the average annual temperature causing melting of
glaciers and an increase in the level of the world’s oceans. In addition to warming, there is also an
unbalance of all natural systems, which leads to a change in the regime of precipitation, temperature
anomalies and an increase in the frequency of extreme events such as hurricanes, floods and droughts.
According to scientists, for ten months of 2015 the average temperature of the planet was 1.02° C
higher than that recorded in the XIX century (when the observation of changes in global temperature
began). The threshold of one degree was exceeded for the first time in modern history. Scientists agree
that the cause lies in human activity – burning of oil, gas and coal – that leads to greenhouse effect that
causes an increase in average temperature. Experts note that between 2000 and 2010, the most
powerful increase in greenhouse gas emissions over the past 30 years has been observed. According to
the World Meteorological Organization, in 2014, their concentration in the atmosphere reached a record
high level,but we can also turn around and save the world and not pollute. Sebastian R, LAM Lipova,
Romania
37. Essay about the climate in the future from an utopian/optimistic point of view

Climate change policies are increasingly seen as integral to sustainable development policies. This
article examines how visions of future society have been employed in climate science and multilateral
negotiations. Using elements of utopian and dystopian thought, we have categorized UNFCCC
documents, IPCC assessments, and special reports and peer-reviewed climate policy articles. Our
results indicate that utopian thinking surfaces with reference to sustainable development and emissions
scenarios. Such visions of future society fall into three categories: projections, dystopian thought, and
utopian thought. Dystopian thought is mainly evident in the rhetoric of various actors, and is used to
spur action or inaction, to avoid either economic catastrophe by acting too fast or ecological
catastrophe by not acting fast enough. Utopian elements in climate change science and policy refer to
decoupling greenhouse gases and economic growth, evenly distributing the benefits of economic
globalization, and smoothing technological development. The present piecemeal invocation of
sustainable development concepts in climate science and policy emphasizes the difficulties of
integrating environmental, social, and economic concerns. The article concludes that utopian thinking
regarding sustainable development could result in more integrated and holistic visions of future society
in climate science and policy. Angelo S, LAM Lipova, Romania

1. We are headed towards a future that is hard and scary to contemplate because of the current situation
that is leaning towards a bad path for our planet.
First of all, at present, global emissions are reaching record levels, the past four years have been the
four hottest on record, coral reefs are dying, sea levels are rising and winter temperatures in the Arctic
have risen by 3°C since 1990. Climate change is the defining issue of our time and now is the moment
to do something about it. Our actions influence the way that our future earth will be.
Now, looking from a dystopian/pessimistic way, our planet has suffered from climate change for years
now and we still haven’t done major changes to slow the process of getting worse and worse. It is very
likely that all humans won’t care about the future of our planet as much as some people already realise
how fast the planet is ending.
Second of all, saving a planet from its downfall requires a lot of implication from people and since no
major changes happened to actually give hope that we can save it, it’s very likely that climate change
won’t stop getting worse. This means that more natural disasters are going to happen in the next few
years.
In conclusion, understanding the problem with our planet isn’t going to happen to a large number of
people, that’s why we can not change the future in a good, healthy place to live, because we live in a
dystopian world. Anca B, LAM Lipova, Romania
2. Dystopian fiction certainly serves a purpose as a bleak reminder not to act lightly in the face of
environmental disaster, often highlighting how climate change could in fact compound disparities
across race and class further.L.A.M,Lipova,Vancea Larisa.
3. My opinion,in the future,the climate crisis will increase,because humans don't respect the
environment. Because of that,the air,the earth and the water will be polluted. BIANCA O., L.A.M.
LIPOVA , Romania We can avoid the situation by working together and respecting the Earth.
4. We live in an age of dystopias on demand. Whether it’s Black Mirror, The Hunger Games or The
Handmaid’s Tale, there is no limit to satiating our desires for dark, apocalyptic visions of the future.
Unfortunately the scariest experience does not involve the world of the imaginary; it just requires
reading the latest climate science.
In one such piece in July 2017, New York Magazine managed to pull together all the possible worst-
case climate scenarios in a longread called “The Uninhabitable Earth.” Through interviews with

climate scientists, it painted a world of bacterial plagues escaping from melting ice, devastating
droughts and floods so frequent they are just called “weather,” and biblical-like tableaus of entire
nations on the move. The piece is bleaker than the darkest of sci-fi, because there is no way of
dismissing it as fiction.
Facing our fears of climate crisis is one of the biggest challenges we face as activists. Not a week goes
by without warnings of an “ice apocalypse” or a “point of no return.” We are bombarded with bleak
visions of the future. And it’s a challenge that we continue to struggle with — one we have mainly
filled with demands for action. For a long time, the answer was to provide easy actions that people
could take so they could feel empowered. But it was soon evident that no amount of energy-saving
lightbulbs was going to halt the capitalist juggernaut. Now the answer, from the left at least, is that we
must confront capitalism to overcome climate change. Yet this can hardly be described as an easy win,
or likely to allay our fears of a dangerous future.
In the anxious void, we have often not engaged or challenged the visions of the future described by
climate scientists or environmentalists. And I don’t mean questioning the science, but assessing their
expectations of humanity’s response to those climate impacts. Do they accurately describe how people
behave in the face of disaster? Do they countenance the idea that people might respond in a way that
doesn’t fit the model of the dystopian dog-eat-dog world? Is it possible that their expectations actually
serve the purpose of those determined to repress alternative futures
I started wondering about this after studying military and corporate strategies for dealing with climate
change impacts whose apocalyptic language often mirrors that of the New York Magazine piece. In
2007, the Pentagon produced its report, Age of Consequences, that looked at varying scenarios for
climate change based on different temperature increases. Its mid-level scenario predicted that nations
around the world would be “overwhelmed by the scale of change and pernicious challenges, such as
pandemic disease.” It also warned that “armed conflict between nations over resources, such as the Nile
and its tributaries, is likely and nuclear war is possible. The social consequences range from increased
religious fervor to outright chaos.” A year later, the oil giant Shell released a report, Scramble and
Blueprint, that forecast a similar Malthusian scramble for resources.
What is striking about all these forecasts of the future is the overwhelming sense of powerlessness that
they provoke. This is partly a result of the fear-based narratives that, as behavioral science research has
shown, tend to engender hopelessness. But it’s also a result of completely ignoring the political
structures in which climate change impacts occur, as well as the potential for people to remake those
systems.

Rather like a Hollywood disaster movie, such scenarios treat climate change as an all-encompassing
dark threat on the horizon that threatens us all, where no one is culpable for what happens next and
where no one can truly prepare for and change its impacts. Their sketches of a future in which millions
starve from increased temperatures, for example, ignore the reality that the present highly concentrated
global system of food production and distribution generates more than enough to eat, yet still leaves
815 million people hungry tonight. They similarly ignore how a radical restructuring of our global food
regime could provide a much more resilient and effective system for producing and fairly distributing
the necessities of life during a time of escalating climate instability.
In short, the climate futures they describe obscure the fact that the impact of climate change will
ultimately not be determined by levels of CO2, but by structures of power. In other words, the exact
impact of a climate disaster will depend on political decisions, economic wealth and social systems.
David P, LAM Lipova, Romania
5. Climate change in the future from an pessimistic point of view
Being "realistic" about climate change means accepting that we have done irreversible damage by
fixing emissions that will remain in the atmosphere for hundreds of years. The best we can "hope for"
is to avoid the worst-case scenario. Climate projections show that even if we aim for 2°C, we will
exceed this threshold.
Adaptation means accepting the fact that we have changed our climate. Sure, some people can adapt,
but many will suffer. Adaptation efforts also fall far short of what is needed for conservation. More and
more species are threatened with extinction because temperatures are rising, and all because of human
activities. Finally, as much as we can learn from science, we cannot predict how bad things will get.
The web of life is complex and science is not able to predict what the extinction of one species would
mean for others. Climate modelling has probably underestimated current and future emissions and the
impacts of climate change that could take us to a point of no return. The problem is not whether we
have the capacity to find technological solutions to reduce emissions, but that we do not have the will
to do so. It is easier to live with the status quo of a mode of production that achieves short-term benefits
at the expense of future generations. Climate change is the tragedy on the horizon, and for many there
is no real benefit to fully considering intergenerational justice. It costs too much, and it hurts too much.
How likely is it that we will give up our current lifestyle so that future generations will find a planet
worth living on? Would you start using public transport? Live closer to work? Change your daily
consumption patterns to reduce your footprint? I would think that a majority would have a problem
with this (literally, because they are not willing to give up greenhouse gas intensive beef, for example).
As the impacts of climate change become more pressing, survival will become the modus operandi for

the masses, because the sustainability of strategies to address climate change is a critical component of
a resilient future.
New forms of entrepreneurship show that it is possible - and increasingly necessary - to combine
adaptation measures with income opportunities. For example, the Women's Empowerment for
Resilience and Adaptation Against Climate Change initiative has established a coalition of women-led
groups that collect individual savings of at least USD 1 once a week to create a pool of funds from
which women can borrow and invest in income-generating action against climate change. This
initiative also empowers women to participate in land planning, agroforestry and soil conservation, and
to use energy-saving stoves. "There is growing evidence of the power and potential of socially
motivated change in the area of climate change. Although changing behaviour patterns and risk
perceptions is a long-term process, there are concerted efforts around the world. In Australia, women
are building a movement to take action on climate change at home, at work and in their communities.
The 1 Million Women organisation aims to get one million women to commit to taking small steps in
their daily lives to save energy, reduce waste, cut pollution and create change. There are increasing
examples of using social media (Facebook, Twitter) to organise and mobilise citizens for disaster risk
reduction, early warning and response. So far, 126 parties have ratified the Paris Agreement. Change is
already underway. Being hopeful is in no way about denying or downplaying the role of climate
science. It is about understanding it and using it to shape our future, believing that we can and will still
positively impact the lives of the most vulnerable. It is about bearing the consequences of our actions
for the environment, for ourselves and for future generations. It is about constantly recognising new
"bastions of hope", learning from them and being inspired by them. It is about engaging in constructive
dialogue with the pessimists and the sceptics and meeting somewhere in the middle to enable action
and change.
We argue that the intervention time left to prevent tipping could already have shrunk towards zero,
whereas the reaction time to achieve net zero emissions is 30 years at best. Hence we might already
have lost control of whether tipping happens. A saving grace is that the rate at which damage
accumulates from tipping — and hence the risk posed — could still be under our control to some extent
The stability and resilience of our planet is in peril. International action — not just words — must
reflect this. Adeline R, LAM Lipova, Romania
6. Climate change
"Climate change is a global problem. The planet is warming because of the growing level of
greenhouse gas emissions from human activity. If this trend continues, truly catastrophic consequences

are likely to ensue from rising sea levels to reduced water availability, to more heat waves and fires."-
Malcolm Turnbull
Climate is the average weather in a place over many years. Climate change is a shift in those average
conditions.
The rapid climate change we are now seeing is caused by humans using oil, gas and coal for their
homes, factories and transport.
7. Digitization is the answer to global warming. If this is done, global warming will be slowed down,
with people being relieved of the catastrophes that could occur as a result of global warming. On the
other hand, if global warming is not stopped, the following will take place: melting glaciers, sea level
rise, decrease in living areas, increasing extreme weather conditions, expansion of desert areas, the rise
of catastrophic atmospheric phenomena, increased volcanic activity, qnimal death and species
extinction decreased drinking water, rising diseases, increased number of mosquitoes and similar
infections, loss of crops, decreased hydroelectric power production, low economic growth in the states
etc. In conclusion, global warming can be stopped if digitization is done, but uncontrolled can make
great catastrophes. Rahela G, LAM Lipova, Romania
8. In the future the climate could get better or could get worse. If we will take a look at this from an
dystopian point of view the climate change will get better because the people could stop using so
much plastic objects so there will be less population in the Earth's water and we could change the
electric power plants that make power by burning fossil fuels to other power plants that make power
trough more natural ways. And by looking at this from a pessimistic point of view the climate change
could get worse because the humaniti do not change their way of life and sump more and more plastic
in the oceans and burn more and more and because of that the temperatures are rising. Marcus C, LAM
Lipova, Romania
8. Climate change is a global problem.Climate change is a shidft in those average conditions.The
climate change we are now seeing is causing by humans using gas,oil,plastic and transports.My opinion
is in the future the climate crises will increase, because humans don't respect the environament.We can
avoid this situationby working toghrther and respecting the our Earth-Ruxanda Boghean from Moldova

9. In my opinion, climate change is a growing risk factor for ecosystems. Climate change will continue
to take place over many decades. Climate change has already had a significant impact on
ecosystems.Beatricie Tcaci from Moldova Hight school Meșterul Manole.
10. Climate is the average weather in a place over many years. Climate change is a shift in those
average conditions. The web of life is complex and science is not able to predict what the extinction of

one species would mean for others. Climate modelling has probably underestimated current and future
emissions and the impacts of climate change that could take us to a point of no return. Adelyna Țurcanu
LT Meșteruk Manole Moldova
11. When we think about the major health challenges facing the world, we tend to think about mental
illness, violence, malnutrition, and chronic illnesses like heart and lung diseases. It surprises many to
learn that climate change is the greatest public health challenge facing communities around the world.
Bogdan M, LAM Lipova, Romania
12. We are headed towards a future that is hard to contemplate. At present, global emissions are
reaching record levels, the past four years have been the four hottest on record, coral reefs are dying,
sea levels are rising and winter temperatures in the Arctic have risen by 3°C since 1990. Climate
change is the defining issue of our time and now is the moment to do something about it. But what?
Society often looks to culture to try and make some sense of the world’s problems. Climate change
challenges us to look ahead, past our own lives, to consider how the future might look for generations
to come – and our part in this. This responsibility requires imagination.
So, it is no surprise that a literary phenomenon has grown over the past decade or two which seeks to
help us imagine the impacts of climate change in clear language. This literary trend – generally known
by the name “cli-fi” – has now been established as a distinctive form of science fiction, with a host of
works produced from authors such as Margaret Atwood and Paolo Bacigalupi to a series of Amazon
shorts.
Often these stories deal with climate science and seek to engage the reader in a way that the statistics of
scientists cannot. Barbara Kingsolver’s Flight Behaviour (2012), for example, creates emotional
resonance with the reader through a novel about the effects of global warming on the monarch
butterflies, set amid familiar family tensions. Lauren Groff’s short story collection Florida (2018) also
brings climate change together with the personal set amid storms, snakes and sinkholes.
The end to come Cli-fi is probably better known for those novels that are set in the future, depicting a
world where advanced climate change has wreaked irreversible damage upon our planet. They conjure
up terrible futures: drowned cities, uncontainable diseases, burning worlds – all scenarios scientists
have long tried to warn us about. These imagined worlds tend to be dystopian, serving as a warning to
readers: look at what might happen if we don’t act now. Atwood’s dystopian trilogy of MaddAddam

13. Climate Change Essay environmental conditions of the earth. happens due to many internal and
external factors. The climatic change has become a global concern over the last few decades. Besides,
these climatic changes affect life on the earth in various ways. These climatic changes are having
various impacts on the ecosystem and ecology. Due to these changes, a number of species of plants and
animals have gone extinct. When Did it Start? The climate started changing a long time ago due to
human activities but we came to know about it in the last century. During the last century, we started
noticing the climatic change and its effect on human life. We started researching on climate change
and came to know that the earth temperature is rising due to a phenomenon called the greenhouse
effect. The warming up of earth surface causes many ozone depletion, affect our agriculture, water
supply, transportation, and several other problems. Reason Of Climate Change Although there are
hundreds of reason for the climatic change we are only going to discuss the natural and manmade
(human) reasons. Get the huge list of more than 500 Essay Topics and Ideas Natural Reasons These
include volcanic eruption, solar radiation, tectonic plate movement, orbital variations. Due to these
activities, the geographical condition of an area become quite harmful for life to survive. Also, these
activities raise the temperature of the earth to a great extent causing an imbalance in nature. Human
Reasons Man due to his need and greed has done many activities that not only harm the environment
but himself too. Many plant and animal species go extinct due to human activity. Human activities that
harm the climate include deforestation, using fossil fuel, industrial waste, a different type of pollution
and many more. All these things damage the climate and ecosystem very badly. And many species of
animals and birds got extinct or on a verge of extinction due to hunting. Andreea M, LAM Lipova,
Romania

14. The end to come Cli-fi is probably better known for those novels that are set in the future, depicting
a world where advanced climate change has wreaked irreversible damage upon our planet. They
conjure up terrible futures: drowned cities, uncontainable diseases, burning worlds all scenarios
scientists have long tried to warn us about. These imagined worlds tend to be dystopian, serving as a
warning to readers: look at what might happen if we don’t act now. Atwood’s dystopian trilogy of
MaddAddam books, for example, imagines post-apocalyptic futurist scenarios where a toxic
combination of narcissism and technology have led to our great undoing. In Oryx and Crake (2003), the
protagonist is left contemplating a devastated world in which he struggles to survive as potentially the
last human left on earth. Set in a world ravaged by sea level rise and tornadoes,

15. Essay about the climate in the future from an dystopian/pessimistic
Global warming is causing long periods of drought. Drought favors increasing the number of forest
fires.Ivan Beshev, Bulgaria (ImaginAIR). In 2009, a joint team of researchers from the United
Kingdom and Germany conducted a study off the coast of Norway with a type of sonar normally used
to search for schools of fish. However, the team was not looking for fish, but wanted to observe the
behavior of one of the most powerful greenhouse gases, methane, released after the "melting" of the
seabed. Their findings were just some of the long-running warnings about the potential impact of
climate change.
In the regions near the polar regions, part of the land or the seabed is permanently frozen. According to
some estimates, this layer - called permafrost - contains twice the amount of carbon currently in the
atmosphere. Under heating conditions, this carbon can be released from rotting biomass either as
carbon dioxide or as methane.

"Methane is a greenhouse gas more than 20 times stronger than carbon dioxide," warns Professor Peter
Wadhams of Cambridge University. "Therefore, we are currently facing the risk of continued global
warming and even accelerating melting of the ice sheet in the Arctic."
Methane emissions come from human activities (especially agriculture, energy production and waste
management) and from natural sources. Once released into the atmosphere, methane has a lifespan of
about 12 years. Although it is considered to be a gas with a relatively short lifespan, it is long enough to
be transported to other regions. In addition, as a greenhouse gas, methane also contributes to the
formation of ground-level ozone, which is itself a major pollutant affecting human health and the
environment in Europe.
The particles may have a heating or cooling effect
Carbon dioxide may be the strongest driver of global warming and climate change, but it is not the only
one. Many other gaseous or solid compounds, known as "climate change drivers," have an influence on
the amount of solar energy (including heat) retained by the Earth and the amount reflected back into
space. These determinants include major air pollutants, such as ozone, methane, particulate matter and
nitrous oxide.
Particles are a complex pollutant. Depending on their composition, they can have a cooling or warming
effect on the local or global climate. For example, carbon black, one of the components of fine particles
and the result of incomplete combustion of fuels, absorbs solar and infrared radiation from the
atmosphere and thus has a warming effect.
Other types of particles, which contain sulfur or nitrogen compounds, have the opposite effect. They
tend to act as tiny mirrors, reflecting solar energy thus leading to cooling. In simple terms, it depends
on the color of the particle. "White" particles tend to reflect the sun's rays, while "black" or "brown"
particles tend to absorb them.
A similar phenomenon occurs at ground level. Some of the particles deposit with rain or snow, or
simply land on the Earth's surface. Black carbon, however, can be transported very far from its place of
origin and can be deposited on the snow and ice. In recent years, carbon black deposits in the Arctic
region have increasingly blackened the white surface and reduced its reflectivity, which means that our
planet retains more heat. With this additional heat, the size of the white surface decreases even more
rapidly in the Arctic region.
It is interesting to note that many climate-related processes are controlled not by the main components
of our atmosphere, but by some gases that are found only in very small quantities. The most common
of these so-called waste gases, carbon dioxide, is only 0.0391% of air. Any variation in these very small
amounts has the potential to affect us and change our climate.

More or less rain?
"Color" is not the only way particles suspended in the air or deposited on the ground can affect the
climate. Part of our air consists of water vapor - tiny molecules of water suspended in the air. The
clouds we all know are the more condensed form of these tiny molecules. Particles play an important
role in the way clouds form, their duration, the amount of solar radiation they can reflect, the type of
precipitation they generate and the place where this phenomenon occurs, etc. Clouds are obviously
essential to our climate; concentrations and particle composition can even change. Alexia A, LAM
Lipova, Romania
16. Climate Change (pessimistic point of view) In our days, one of the most fearing thing is climate
change.For some people, climate change, is one of their fear. The high exposure of Earth to the solar
light contributes to the changing of our climate. For example, the melting of icebergs causes release of
many bacteria and microbes, floads, which can make cities and villages go under water. The woods that
went on fire in the last decade is another example of the result of the climate change.In the conclusion,
climate change is a dangerous thing. Denis B, LAM Lipova, Romania
17. Climate in the future- pessimist point of view - Global average temperature in 2021 was about
1.1°C higher than the pre-industrial period. This may sound like a small increase, but it is not trivial.
Scientists are concerned about the speed of the increase: a temperature rise that would typically occur
over a few centuries has happened over just a few decades. Since the industrial revolution, we have
seen a rise in greenhouse gases exceeding levels not experienced for over 650,000 years. The science is
clear—the climate is changing, and this change is caused by human activity.
Being “realistic” about climate change means accepting that we have inflicted irreversible damage,
locking in emissions that will stay in the atmosphere for hundreds of years. The best we can “hope” for
is avoiding the worst-case scenario. Climate projections show that even if we aim for 2°C, we will still
cross that threshold.
Adaptation is accepting the fact that we have changed our climate. Sure, some people can adapt, but
many will suffer. Adaptation efforts also fall far short of what is needed for conservation efforts, with
an increasing number of species facing extinction as the temperatures rise, all because of human
activity. Finally, as much as we can learn from science, we cannot predict how bad it could be. The web
of life is complex, and science has not been able to project what the extinction of one species would
mean for others. Climate modelling has likely underestimated current emissions and future emissions,
as well as runaway impacts of climate change that can put us at a point of no return.
Organizing the majority to act on climate is a futile act. Sure, you’ll see a protest here and there with
possibly a visible turnout, but don’t expect to see a movement that lasts the life of an election cycle.

They come and they go. And when they come back, you’ll see the same people, over and over again.
Finally, ask the masses whether climate is changing and they will likely say “yes.” But ask them
whether they will change their behaviour, especially if it costs them, they would likely say “no.” After
all, it is easier to pass the cost down to future generations than to be responsible for one’s own actions
(and it’s cheaper for the polluter).
Climate is changing and the human species is responsible for it. Without a doubt, we will live in a very
different world as we age, and the world we pass on to future generations will not be a pretty one. The
question is not whether we can keep within a climate-safe limit—we should find every opportunity to
demand that our politicians take action and raise ambition. That said, we need to act on climate not
because politicians will act to keep the world within climate-safe limits, but because giving up is not
option. We must avoid the worst case of a world in which climate change exceeds 2, or 3, or 4+ degrees
Celsius. Mihaela S, LAM Lipova, Romania
18. Climate in the future The weather is unavoidable, but lately the news about what’s going on at the
borders has become too much for most people to endure. Under increasing pressure from public
health officials, news organizations have decreased the number of stories devoted to genocide, slave
trading, and refugee virus outbreaks. You can no longer trust the news. Social media, long the grim
source of live feeds and disaster reporting, is brimming with conspiracy theories and doctored videos.
Gratiela S, LAM Lipova, Romania
19. Climate in the vision of an dystopia The temperature was recorded by a measuring station that does
not belong to the usual network of weather stations. It was reported by "climate detectives" before
being confirmed by the World Meteorological Organization (WMO), hence its late publication. "The
record was set at an altitude of 3,105 meters, near the top of the ice cap, at an automatic measuring
station called Klinck," DMI said in a statement. "There have been many heat records in the last decade
and it is important to recognize the extremes," DMI climatologist John Cappelen told AFP. "The
possibility of a new cold record is diminishing, but I can't say we will never record it again," he said.
Previously, the record in the northern hemisphere was -67.8 degrees Celsius and was recorded in
Russia twice, in 1892 and 1933. The lowest temperature ever recorded in the world is -89.2 degrees
Celsius, in Antarctica, at the base Russian Vostok, July 21, 1983. Andra T, LAM Lipova, Romania
20. It's 2132. Many of Earth's problems have evolved past what we can handle. Some politicians
thought about moving another planet, but I'm afraid it's much too late.
Criminal organisations have grown so influential that all international government relations have gone
down the drain because of them. Countless politicians and climate activists assassinated just for an
agenda.

Green energy never took off. It had steady progress, but the prices skyrocketed as fabrication factories
for these devices were targeted by these criminal organisations.
Fossil fuels reign supreme, and people only care for the fastest, heaviest cars.
The average consumer uses more electricity today than the biggest countries used in 2022. Our
computers may be slow, but our water sources and forests are unusable and unrecognisable.
Most wildlife has gone extinct from heavy hunting, and only a few housepet species remain so they can
be sold for commercial gain.
Stop.
This seems impossible, right?
If so many people are trying to make a difference, then how come this is a possibility?
Well, the problem is that not many people care. There are a few that do, but not many. In an era where
you can do your own research, misinformation spreads like wildfire on social media. If you don't want
the world to become something like what I just described, be sure to be careful and check your sources
before sharing that article you found.
It seems harmless, but a single article could start a whole group of people hating something for no
reason; much like the current situation with anti-vaxxers.
Countries like China are still using fossil fuels, are still using coal factories that harm the environment a
lot. The only way we can change thus is to spread awareness. Our world will become something out of
a psychological horror sci-fi apocalyptic novel, if we don't do something about our climate. Florin U,
LAM Lipova, Romania
21. The climate în the future willl be wery bad.the icebergs will mult and the ocean will grow about
30% And countryes will go under water.if we dont do something Quick we will need to move to
another planet and I dont want this. Arian A, LAM Lipova, Romania
22. CLIMATE IN THE FUTURE FROM AN PESSIMISTIC POINT OF VIEW
Climate change refers to long term shifts in temperatures and weather patterns. These shifts may be
natural such as through variations in the solar cycle. But since the 1800s, human activities have been
the main driver of climate change,primarily due to burning fossil fuels like coal, oil and gas.
Society often looks to culture to try and make some sense of the world s problems. Climate change
challenges up to look ashead, past our own lives,to consider how the future might look for generations
to come and our part in this. This responsibility requires imagination. Iana B, LAM Lipova, Romania
23. Climate in the future Pessimistic point of view What is Climate Change? Climate change refers to
significant, long-term changes in the global climate. The global climate is the connected system of sun,
earth and oceans, wind, rain and snow, forests, deserts and savannas, and everything people do, too.

The climate of a place, say New York, can be described as its rainfall, changing temperatures during the
year and so on. But the global climate is more than the “average” of the climates of specific places.
climate change A description of the global climate includes how, for example, the rising temperature of
the Pacific feeds typhoons which blow harder, drop more rain and cause more damage, but also shifts
global ocean currents that melt Antarctica ice which slowly makes sea level rise until New York will be
under water. It is this systemic connectedness that makes global climate change so important and so
complicated.
Predicted Impacts of Climate Change Climate change is predicted to impact regions differently. For
example, temperature increases are expected to be greater on land than over oceans and greater at high
latitudes than in the tropics and mid-latitudes. Warmer temperatures will cause (and are causing)
changes to other aspects of climate - such as rain, snow, and clouds. They are also causing changes to
the ocean, life, ice, and all other parts of the Earth system
What are the consequences of global warming?Increased heat, drought and insect outbreaks, all linked
to climate change, have increased wildfires. Declining water supplies, reduced agricultural yields,
health impacts in cities due to heat, and flooding and erosion in coastal areas are additional concerns.
What are the consequences of global cooling ? These have a direct effect: they effectively increase the
planetary albedo, thus cooling the planet by reducing the solar radiation reaching the surface; and an
indirect effect: they affect the properties of clouds by acting as cloud condensation nuclei.
Changing Precipitation A warmer average global temperature will cause the water cycle to “speed up”
due to a higher rate of evaporation. More water vapor in the atmosphere will lead to more precipitation.
Global average precipitation increases by 1% to 3% for each degree of warming, which means we are
looking at a future with much more rain and snow, and a higher risk of flooding to some regions. By
2100, precipitation will increase by at least 1% with a possible increase of up to 12%. However,
changes in precipitation will not be evenly distributed. Some locations will get more, and others will
see less. Noemi M, LAM Lipova, Romania
24. The climate of the future from a distopian point of view means to me "that the end of humanity"
because I would believe that there will be climate change makes summers longer and warmer, while
the rest of the seasons become shorter and shorter and because of that the changes could affect public
health and agriculture .Other causes could be global warming, pollution, overcrowding and human
despair over new technologies.Which would lead to the apocalypse. Mihaela M, LAM Lipova,
Romania
25. The climate in the future: Dystopia point of view Humans and wild animals face new challenges for
survival because of climate change. More frequent and intense drought, storms, heatwaves, rising sea

levels, melting glaciers, and warming oceans can directly harm animals, destroy the places they live,
and wreak havoc on people’s livelihoods and communities. Through the years humans start noticing the
impact of climate change, but we are still not completely and correctly informed about this topic. The
saddest part is that we are permanently affected by those changes and still don't know exactly how we
are supposed to deal with them. This is one of the biggest problems these days, and it's like we don't
even want to accept what is happening to the world. Is unbelievable how much we have lost through
the years, and still lose every day. Dalia P, LAM Lipova, Romania
26. What makes climate change? Changes in the sun Change in the earth’s orbit Change in the clouds
Change in ice sheets
Changes in the gases in the atmosphere Internal Wiggles (for example El Nino) Volcanic eruptions
Why is Climate changes a problem? Over millions of years, species become adapted to survive in the
itions in which they live. A stable climate supports this process and allows living things to thrive. If the
climate changes quickly, organisms don’t have enough time to adapt to new conditions and may no
longer be able to survive. Riana P, LAM Lipova, Romania
27. “The end of oil is near.” In some of those endings, humanity rises to the climate challenge while
making concurrent efforts to reduce poverty and improve quality of life for everyone. The world is
hotter and the weather is more dangerous, but the worst climate impacts are averted and societies are
able to adapt. The UN’s latest report on the state of the climate offers a stark warning that humanity’s
future could be filled with apocalyptic natural disasters. But that future isn’t set in stone. Depending on
global economic trends, technological progress, geopolitical developments, and most importantly, how
aggressively we act to reduce carbon emissions, the world at the end of the 21st century could turn out
to be radically different. Or not. Larisa S, LAM Lipova, Romania
28. CLIMATE IN THE FUTURE If the climate changes in the future, it can produces a natural disaster.
It could be a few years of total drought, followed by years of cold in the world. The climate would
change because of this. With climate change, there will be famine, drought, and the disappearance of
animal species such as animals that live in cold places and animals that live in warm places and
savannas. Because of sudden changes in temperature, various types of diseases, viruses, and bacteria
can appear that will make the planet's population sick. Alecsandra S, LAM Lipova, Romania
29. Climate in the future From a pessimistic point of view
CLIMATE IN THE FUTURE Climate change refers to long-term shifts in temperatures and weather
patterns. These shifts may be natural, such as through variations in the solar cycle. But since the 800s,
human activities have been the main driver of climate change, primarily due to burning fossil fuels like
coal, oil and gas.

Changes in the sun
Changes in the earth's orbit
Changes in the clouds
Changes in ice sheets
Volcanic eruptions
Changes in the gases in the atmosphere (Greenhouse effect)
Internal Wiggles (for example El Nino)
Why Is Climate Change a Problem? Over millions of years, species become adapted to survive in the
itions in which they live. A stable climate supports this process and allows living things to thrive. If the
climate changes quickly, organisms don’t have enough time to adapt to new conditions and may no
longer be able to survive.
Examples of greenhouse gas emissions that are causing climate change include carbon dioxide and
methane. These come from using gasoline for driving a car or coal for heating a building, for example.
Clearing land and forests can also release carbon dioxide. Landfills for garbage are a major source of
methane emissions. Energy, industry, transport, buildings, agriculture and land use are among the main
emitters.
People are experiencing climate change in diverse ways Climate change can affect our health, ability to
grow food, housing, safety and work. Some of us are already more vulnerable to climate impacts, such
as people living in small island nations and other developing countries. Conditions like sea-level rise
and saltwater intrusion have advanced to the point where whole communities have had to relocate, and
protracted droughts are putting people at risk of famine. In the future, the number of “climate refugees”
is expected to rise. Iulia V, LAM Lipova, Romania

1.The global warming
2.How we can stop this
3.How we can stop this
The global warming
The earth’s ocean temperatures are getting warmer, too—which meansthat tropical storms can pick up
more energy. In other words, global warming has the ability to turn a category 3 storm into a more
dangerous category 4 storm. In fact, scientists have found that the frequency of North Atlantic
hurricanes has increased since the early 1980s, as has the number of storms that reach categories 4 and
5. The 2020 Atlantic hurricane season included a record-breaking 30 tropical storms, 6 major
hurricanes, and 13 hurricanes altogether. With increased intensity come increased damage and death.

The United States saw an unprecedented 22 weather and climate disasters that caused at least a billion
dollars’ worth of damage in 2020, but 2017 was the costliest on record and among the deadliest as well:
Taken together, that year's tropical storms (including Hurricanes Harvey, Irma, and Maria) caused
nearly $300 billion in damage and led to more than 3,300 fatalities.
How we can stop this The goal is simple. Carbon dioxide is the climate’s worst enemy. It’s released
when oil, coal, and other fossil fuels are burned for energy—the energy we use to power our homes,
cars, and smartphones. By using less of it, we can curb our own contribution to climate change while
also saving money. Here are a dozen easy, effective ways each one of us can make a difference:
The causes Animals, livestock like sheep and cattle, produce methane, a greenhouse gas. When
livestock grazed at a large scale, as in Australia, the amount of methane produced is a big contributor to
global warming. Andrei C, LAM Lipova, Romania
31. Essay about the climate in the future Climate change is a change in global or regional climate
patterns. Climate change is a topic that is brought up in many different genres of conversations.
Whether it be brought up and discussed in politics, school, family, or friends, some people still limit
using those words when in casual conversation. Some of those same people are the people who still
deny that climate change is happening. Climate change affects every single one of us. It affects
everyone who lives on this earth every day and has long term damages that researches can not even
predict yet. A new survey finds that 70 percent of Americans believe the climate is changing, this poll is
from Monmouth University in January, 2016. A lot of people are on the fence about supporting climate
change and question whether or not the government should take a stand for reducing climate change.
As a teen and an upcoming young adult, living in a clean and healthy world means a lot to me. Climate
change is not a recent problem, it has been happening for many years. I will be sharing both sides of the
climate change argument and explaining the steps the government could take to reduce these changes in
our environment. I will also explain why there is such a resistance among parts of the community
toward climate change. Angelo S, LAM Lipova, Romania
32. THE GLOBAL CLIMATE IN THE FUTURE THE GLOBAL WARMING Everyone is familiar
with the term "global warming." However, the majority of us are still unsure. The term "global
warming" refers to a rapid increase in global temperatures. This occurrence is extremely detrimental to
the environment. Glaciers melt as a result of global warming, causing the oceans to rise in level.
Because the glaciers are their natural home, the animals suffer as well. THE CONSEQUENCES The
following are some of the effects of global warming: The ozone layer is depleting. The ozone layer is
found in the stratosphere of the Earth and protects us from the sun's UV rays, which are harmful to the
human body. The glaciers are melting. Many animals will perish from our planet if the glaciers melt,

because the glaciers are their natural home. The water level is rising. Many people will drown if the
oceans rise, and so many properties will be harmed as a result of the water. HOW WE CAN STOP
THIS We can stop it if we recognize that global warming is a real problem, not a fake new. The first
step is to determine the source of the issue. Then we must comprehend the reasons and devise remedies
that will assist us in combating global warming. There isn't just one reason, but a number of them. The
issues that are causing this major issue might be natural, created by natural events, or induced by
humans. Combating global warming is challenging, but it is not impossible. THE CAUSES We can put
a stop to it if we recognize that global warming is a real problem, not a hoax. The first step is to
determine the source of the issue. Then we must comprehend the reasons and devise remedies that will
assist us in combating global warming. There isn't just one reason, but a number of them. The issues
that are causing this major issue might be natural, created by natural events, or induced by humans.
Combating global warming is challenging, but it is not impossible. The causes can be because of the
humans, too. The first one can be the automobiles, the factories and the burning of the fuel. This is a
major factor in global warming and we need to stop this using electric cars, walking by the bike or to
walk. It’s ecological and very healthy for us.Denis V, LAM Lipova, Romania

3.How we can stop this
The global warming Global warming is a term that everyone is familiar with. But, its still not clear to
most of us. Global warming refers to the rise of temperatures around the globe in a very short time.
This event is very harmful for the planet. The global warming makes the glaciers to melt and this
makes the oceans to rise their level. The animals also suffer because the glaciers are their natural
habitat.
How we can stop this We can stop this if we understand that the global warming is a serious thing, not
a fake new. The first step is to find the cause of the problem. Then, we need to understand the causes
and find the solutions that will help us to combat the global warming. There isn’t just one cause, there
are several causes. The problems that cause this big problem can be natural, caused by natural

phenomena or because of the humans. It’s very difficult to combat the global warming, but it’s not
impossibile.
The causes The natural causes can be the volcanic eruptions that are responsible because they release
tons of carbon dioxide that accentuates the global warming.The causes can be because of the humans,
too. The first one can be the automobiles, the factories and the burning of the fuel. This is a major
factor in global warming and we need to stop this using electric cars, walking by the bike or to walk.
It’s ecological and very healthy for us.Iulian L, LAM Lipova, Romania
35. The Climate Future There is considerable evidence that putting more democratic power structures
in place will not only ensure a more just response, but also prove to be more resilient to climate change
impacts. Research on communities coping with climate change shows that those that maximize
participation and inclusion are far more likely to provide the flexibility, creativity and collective
strength to cope with fast, multiple changes and stresses. By contrast, unequal societies are far less
resilient as they lack interpersonal trust and have weak social bonds, which make collective organizing
all the more difficult. In addition, there is growing evidence that gender equity is particularly important
for finding peaceful resolutions to resource challenges. S Matusoiu, LAM Lipova, Romania
36. The weather is different. There are things that are very very visceral and obvious, and they make
you question yourself the future and how will we survive. The climate started changing a long time ago
due to human activities but we came to know about it in the last century. During the last century, we
started noticing the climatic change and its effect on human life. We started researching on climate
change and came to know that the earth temperature is rising due to a phenomenon called the
greenhouse effect. The warming up of earth surface causes many ozone depletion, affect our
agriculture, water supply, transportation, and several other problems. Sebastian R, LAM Lipova,

I think that climate change will not get any better because of the selfishness of people. We are not
making it any better or trying enough and soon it won't be reversible anymore. As climate change
worsens the weather will worsen as well. There will be more frequent and intense drought, storms, heat
waves, rising sea levels and warming oceans that can directly harm animals, destroy the places where
they live and wreak havoc on people's livelihoods and communities. As climate change worsens,
dangerous weather events are becoming more frequent or severe.

I believe that climate change will not improve for the better due to people's lack of information about it,
then about human dependence on public transport. We take from nature and do not return anything to it.

I believe the situation will only get worse due to most people caring more about material possesions
than the planet they live on. We dont realise how badly our every day habits such as littering and
buying more items than we need effects the world we live in.
In theory,we could fix the current state of climate change, but that will never happen because peple
arent willing to put in the work and corporations arent willing to stop abusing the system in order to
capitalize off off cheap labour. Capitalism and its culture is the main reason why i believe the Earth will
never truly heal from the torture we put it through for our selfish desires.
