Abstract

Podnebne spremembe so vse večji problem vsake posamezne države sveta. Glavni vzrok za njihov nastanek je globalno segrevanje, katerega ključni povzročitelj so toplogredni plini. Emisije teh plinov okrog Zemlje ustvarijo plašč, ki zadržuje sončno svetlobo ter tako zvišujejo temperaturo. Posledice podnebnih sprememb opazimo kot dvigovanje morske gladine, ponekod nastajajo ekstremni vročinski valovi ter suša, drugod se srečujejo z močnimi padavinami in poplavami. Vpliv podnebnih sprememb lahko zaznamo tudi kot slabše zdravje ljudi, povečano število prezgodnjih smrti, pomanjkanje hrane, omejeno oskrbo z vodo, ogrožene so številne živalske in rastlinske vrste. V prihodnosti bodo podnebne spremembe odvisne od tega, kakšne ukrepe bo sprejela družba, zlasti od emisij toplogrednih plinov, od gospodarskega razvoja, porabe energije, tehnološkega napredka in drugih dejavnikov. Zavedanje nevarnosti podnebnih sprememb je sprožilo proces mednarodnega sodelovanja. Izboljšalo se je zavedanje posledic podnebnih sprememb in tudi potrebnih ukrepov za njihovo zmanjšanje. Na tem področju je bilo sprejetih že kar nekaj zakonov in konvencij. Da bi ugotovili, kako se dojemanje podnebnih sprememb razlikuje med vladnimi in nevladnimi organizacijami v Sloveniji, smo izvedli intervjuje z zaposlenimi v ključnih institucijah, ki delujejo na tem področju. Vsi so menili, da so k onesnaženju največ prispevali izpusti toplogrednih plinov iz tovarn in avtomobilov, krivec je tudi kmetijstvo. Podnebnim spremembam so bolj izpostavljene revne države in države v razvoju. Ravno tako menijo, da je s podnebnimi spremembami ogrožena naša varnost, saj se bosta povečali pogostost in jakost ekstremnih dogodkov. Da bi pozitivno vplivali nanje, moramo spremeniti vsakodnevne navade, na primer zagotoviti ustrezno ravnanje z odpadki, sezonsko in lokalno prehranjevanje, zmanjšati odpadke hrane, povečati skrb za čisto okolje in podobno. Znati se bomo morali prilagoditi podnebnim spremembam, na primer z namakanjem, postavitvijo protitočnih mrež, opozarjanjem na ekstremne naravne dogodke, z ustrezno gradnjo in podobno.

Secondary title:	The impact of global warming on safety of world population
Secondary abstract:	Climate change poses an escalating challenge both globally and at the national level of every individual country in the world. The primary driver behind climate change is global warming, primarily attributed to greenhouse gas emissions increasingly released into the atmosphere due to human activities. Key sectors contributing to this issue include transportation, industry, energy production, and agriculture. Addressing this problem necessitates collaboration among all nations, establishing unified legislation, and raising awareness among individuals about the severity of the issue. It is worth noting that poor countries, developing nations, and small island states are particularly vocal about climate change, as they are most profoundly affected by it. This is an area that requires increasing attention since drastic climate change can negatively impact our lives, often without us being fully aware of it. To determine Slovenia's perspective on climate change, we conducted interviews with key institutions operating in this field. Everyone believed that greenhouse gas emissions from factories and cars contributed the most to pollution, and that agriculture was also to blame. Although climate change is a problem for the whole world, poor countries and developing countries are more exposed to climate change itself. They also believe that our safety is threatened by climate change, as the frequency and intensity of extreme events will increase. To have a positive impact on climate change, we need to change our daily habits, e.g., ensure proper recycling, eat seasonal and local food, reduce food waste, care for a clean environment, and so on. We will have to learn how to adapt to climate change, for example, through irrigation, setting up countercurrent networks, warning of extreme natural events, appropriate construction, and the like.
