The latest scientific knowledge on climate change indicates that
higher greenhouse gas concentrations in the atmosphere through
unchecked emissions will provoke severe climate change and ocean

structures on which humanity relies and have serious consequences
for the food chain among others. Climate change therefore poses
major socio-economic, technical and environmental challenges
