Climate change in New Zealand the United States (when compared on 1990 levels), a number of environmental groups have noted that it is below the level recommended by scientists in order reduce the damage of anthropogenic climate change. Some groups in New Zealand have misunderstood the 2013 target, for example assuming that it replaced the target set in 2009. The Paris Climate Agreement negotiations began on 30 November and concluded 12 December 2015. The Paris Climate Agreement is the successor to the 1998 Kyoto Protocol and has a target to keep temperature rises within 2 degrees this century, with ambitions to reduce this temperature rise
Physical impacts of climate change associated with global warming will tend to stabilize marine gas hydrate deposits. Models have been used to assess the effect that climate change will have on the carbon cycle (Meehl "et al"., 2007:789-790). In the Coupled Climate-Carbon Cycle Model Intercomparison Project, eleven climate models were used. Observed emissions were used in the models and future emission projections were based on the IPCC SRES A2 emissions scenario. Unanimous agreement was found among the models that future climate change will reduce the efficiency of the land and ocean carbon cycle to absorb human-induced CO. As a result, a larger fraction of human-induced
