The increase of greenhouse gases (GHG) in the atmosphere and the resulting climatic change will have important effects in the 21st century. Agricultural activity is a source for three primary GHG: carbon dioxide (CO2 ), methane 2 (CH4 ) and nitrous oxide (N2O). Agricultural soils can also be a sink for CO2 through C sequestration into biomass products and soil organic matter. In this paper; it was summarized the literature on GHG emissions and C sequestration, provided a perspective on how agriculture can reduce its GHG burden and how it can help to mitigate GHG emissions through conservation measures. Impacts of agricultural practices and systems on GHG emission were reviewed. The potential of agricultural lands for CO2 , N2O and CH4 mitigation is not well recognized. Besides, there are a number of shortcomings that need to be emphasized. These include the uncertainties related to future shifts in global climate, land-use and plant cover, the poor yields of trees and crops on low fertile soils and under arid climate conditions, mineral fertilizers efficiency. In addition, more efforts are needed to improve methods for estimating C stocks and gas balances such as nitrous oxide (N2O) and methane (CH4) to determine net benefits of agriculture on the atmosphere. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Global climate change is now accepted to be the most serious environmental threat facing human race. One of the solution of the problem is improving renewable energy sources. Many countries see the development of renewable energy as a way of mitigation climate change. At this stage , to understand renewable energy development potential haz become very important. Thus, This paper argues the contribution of renewable energy sources with mitigation global warming. Each source is examined independently the others from perspective of progress in short and long term. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

As encapsulated by eco-conscious author Margaret Atwood, climate change has an unprecedented effect on human life. Throughout history human beings have adapted to numerous climatic changes by complying with the available sources of food, housing, clothing, water or warmth. Today, however, climate change creates more devastating and instant consequences that populations and the ecosystem cannot cope with. The situation seems to have become too compelling to ignore so many authors feel an urge to warn people by transforming graphs and scientific data into emotion and experience in their narratives. At this point, “climate fiction” commonly known as “cli-fi” emerges as a new category engaging global and local effects of the global warming with literature. Despite the fact that cli-fi was not officially coined until the late 2000’s, many authors have been writing about climate change for years now. In this sense, “Venice Drowned” (1981) and “The Tamarisk Hunter” which was published 25 years later are the best examples to illustrate how deep-rooted and long-standing environmental issue climate change is. Kim Stanley Robinson and Paolo Bacigalupi have produced a great deal of works relating to not only the physical destruction of climate change to the Earth but also its long-term effects on our social and economic structures. Accordingly, the stories both set in urban space skillfully exemplify the social, political and economic effects of climate change. So far, a great amount of cli-fi texts have been produced and literary critics have also responded to this trend with an increased quantity of analyses in the context of eco-criticism. In this paper “Venice Drowned” by Kim Stanley Robinson and “The Tamarisk Hunter” by Paolo Bacigalupi will be studied through the theories of ecocriticism in order to demonstrate how cli-fi texts function in providing the reader with an objective perception by elucidating the explicit and belated challenges posed by the problem of climate change.
