The growth of Chinese and Indian economies is improving their well being, but at a very high environmental cost. Widespread air pollution and greenhouse gases are having a range of complex effects on both regional and global climate. Join Scripps Oceanography atmospheric science researcher V. Ramanathan as he explains that while science can offer practical solutions, the effectiveness of these strategies will hinge on global cooperation and immediate implementation.

Strikes me, and I've been weathering the seasons for a long, long time, that the weather has been most odd for many years. Just like scientists indicated it would in the 1960s and 1970s. Please refer to UC TV's about American's Denial of Global Warming. That too is a most interesting video and helps put this in historical perspective. Thank you for presenting the lecture.
regardless, what does weather changes have to do with climatic changes? Outside my window? Which is relevant as a point of reference? please? tell me as if i do not understand....
2 Billion? My God just follow the money trail it will lead you to the crooks. Can I get some of that 2 billion by saying man is causing global warming? Hey it works for V. Ramanathan it can work for me.
Jon, watch this video all the way through. Ramanathan mentions a couple things that could account for the "cooling" trends that some people are seeing (like the fact that yearly temperatures fluctuate naturally even if the trend is generally an upward one). Furthermore, that's not the main point of this lecture. That point is: we are impacting our environment in ways we can see just looking outside. It would be unwise to ignore that, and beneficial to look for sound solutions to our problems.
