Climate Change & Global Warming
The science behind climate change and global warming has presented a compelling case that emissions of greenhouse gases from human activities are inducing changes in the climate throughout the world. Carbon dioxide and other gases naturally warm the surface of the earth by trapping solar heat in the atmosphere, which is a good thing because it has kept the planet habitable. However, by increasingly burning fossil fuels such as oil, gas and coal, and deforestation, humans have dramatically amplified the amount of carbon dioxide in the earths atmosphere causing temperatures to rise.
The vast majority of scientists agree that global warming is a real risk. We have already seen changes occurring throughout the world such as melting glaciers and sea levels rising, habitat changes for animals, growing seasons expanding, ice on rivers and lakes freezing later and breaking up earlier, and an increase in the quantity of precipitation and severe storms, hurricanes, and extensive drought conditions.
To ensure a sustainable future, there is a great need to understand climate change and to manage greenhouse gas emissions in ways that protects the planet from further degradation and change while promoting economic growth. As the climate change debate and private sector market solutions have been evolving, Sequence has been on the forefront working with clients throughout the country to expand their staff expertise in this arena, and to provide strategic advice and implementation support for programs that protect the stratospheric ozone layer, as required under the Montreal Protocol and country government requirements (e.g., U.S. Clean Air Act Amendments of 1990, EC Regulation No. 2037/2000).
Sequence is leading the way, searching and placing personnel with our clients to assess on a comprehensive, objective, open and transparent basis the latest scientific, technical and socio-economic information to gain a full understanding of the risk of human-induced climate change, its observed and projected impacts and options for adaptation and mitigation.
We understand the vital need today for highly trained personnel who can provide leadership preparing innovative climate change technical and policy analyses, in identifying viable market solutions and the capability to build real world management tools for:
Green house gas strategy and policy analysis Emission inventories and carbon footprints Carbon strategies and market analysis Carbon credits research and policies GHG mitigation policy analysis and reductions Ozone Stratospheric protection strategies Climate change management strategies
Because climate change and global warming are very complex, evolving issues, the personnel we routinely recruit and place in this field include:
Climatologists Climate Change Analysts Capital Market Managers Environmental Economists Environmental Program Managers Energy Managers Air Quality Specialists Natural Resources Managers Climate Change Professors Modelers Meteorologists Training Specialists Marketing and Public Relations Professionals Management Consultants Lobbyists
