[edit] Community contributions to mitigation

This section highlights some current thinking about how communities might deal with a changing climate. These include encouraging people to live closer to where they work, building up (not out), increasing use of public transportation, increasing recycling programs, more efficient use of water resources, more renewable energy sources, and even "green" urban planning.

[edit] Individual contributions to mitigation

Here we discuss how personal conservation can help to limit greenhouse gas emissions.

[edit] How societies/countries can reduce emissions

Governments are now aware and intend to take action to reduce greenhouse gas emotions, these are several areas that can contribute to it.
