Context paragraphs:
Global warming game: A global warming game, also known as a climate game or a climate change game, is a type of serious game.  As a serious game, it attempts to simulate and explore real life issues to educate players through an interactive experience.  The issues particular to a global warming video game are usually energy efficiency and the implementation of green technology as ways to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and thus counteract global warming.  Global warming games also include more traditional board games, video games, as well as other varieties.

Text Publishing: Text Publishing is an independent Australian publisher of fiction and non-fiction.  Its authors include Helen Garner, J. M. Coetzee, Barack Obama, Tim Flannery, Kate Grenville, Graeme Simsion, Peter Temple, Murray Bail, John Clarke, M. J. Hyland, Herman Koch, Lionel Shriver, Carlos Ruiz Zafón, among many others.

Climate change adaptation: Climate change adaptation is a response to global warming and climate change, that seeks to reduce the vulnerability of social and biological systems to relatively sudden change and thus offset the effects of global warming.  Even if emissions are stabilized relatively soon, global warming and its effects should last many years, and adaptation would be necessary to the resulting changes in climate.  Adaptation is especially important in developing countries since those countries are predicted to bear the brunt of the effects of global warming.  That is, the capacity and potential for humans to adapt (called adaptive capacity) is unevenly distributed across different regions and populations, and developing countries generally have less capacity to adapt (Schneider "et al.", 2007).  Furthermore, the degree of adaptation correlates to the situational focus on environmental issues.  Therefore, adaptation requires the situational assessment of sensitivity and vulnerability to environmental impacts.  Adaptive capacity is closely linked to social and economic development (IPCC, 2007).  The economic costs of adaptation to climate change are likely to cost billions of dollars annually for the next several decades, though the amount of money needed is unknown.  Donor countries promised an annual $100 billion by 2020 through the Green Climate Fund for developing countries to adapt to climate change.  However, while the fund was set up during COP16 in Cancún, concrete pledges by developed countries have not been forthcoming.  The adaptation challenge grows with the magnitude and the rate of climate change.

Business action on climate change: Business action on climate change includes a range of activities relating to global warming, and to influencing political decisions on global-warming-related regulation, such as the Kyoto Protocol.  Major multinationals have played and to some extent continue to play a significant role in the politics of global warming, especially in the United States, through lobbying of government and funding of global warming skeptics. Business also plays a key role in the mitigation of global warming, through decisions to invest in researching and implementing new energy technologies and energy efficiency measures.  (See also individual and political action on climate change.)

Climate change denial: Climate change denial, or global warming denial, is part of the global warming controversy.  It involves denial, dismissal, unwarranted doubt or contrarian views contradicting the scientific opinion on climate change, including the extent to which it is caused by humans, its impacts on nature and human society, or the potential of adaptation to global warming by human actions.  Some deniers do endorse the term, but others often prefer the term climate change skepticism.  However several scientists researching this phenomenon have noted that "skepticism" is a misnomer and an inaccurate description when referring to those who deny anthropogenic global warming.  In effect, the two terms form a continuous, overlapping range of views, and generally have the same characteristics: both reject, to a greater or lesser extent, mainstream scientific opinion on climate change.  Climate change denial can also be implicit, when individuals or social groups accept the science but fail to come to terms with it or to translate their acceptance into action.  Several social science studies have analyzed these positions as forms of denialism and pseudoscience.

Mitigation of global warming in Australia: Mitigation of global warming involves taking actions to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and to enhance sinks aimed at reducing the extent of global warming.  This is in distinction to adaptation to global warming, which involves taking action to minimise the effects of global warming.  Scientific consensus on global warming, together with the precautionary principle and the fear of non-linear climate transitions, is leading to increased effort to develop new technologies and sciences and carefully manage others in an attempt to mitigate global warming.

Global warming hiatus: A global warming hiatus, also sometimes referred to as a global warming pause or a global warming slowdown, is a period of relatively little change in globally averaged surface temperatures.  In the current episode of global warming many such 15-year periods appear in the surface temperature record, along with robust evidence of the long-term warming trend; climate is classically averaged over 30-year periods.

Tim Flannery: Timothy Fridtjof "Tim" Flannery (born 28 January 1956) is an Australian mammalogist, palaeontologist, environmentalist and global warming activist.  He was the Chief Commissioner of the Climate Commission, a Federal Government body providing information on climate change to the Australian public.  On 23 September 2013, Flannery announced that he would join other sacked commissioners to form the independent Climate Council, that would be funded by the community.

Global Warming: The Signs and The Science: Global Warming: The Signs and The Science is a 2005 documentary film on global warming made by ETV, the PBS affiliate in South Carolina, and hosted by Alanis Morissette.  The documentary examines the science behind global warming and pulls together segments filmed in the United States, Asia and South America and shows how people in these different locales are responding in different ways to the challenges of global warming to show some of the ways that the world can respond.

Climate change in Russia: Global warming in Russia describes the global warming related issues in Russia.  This includes climate politics, contribution to global warming and the influence of global warming in Russia.  In 2009 Russia was ready to reduce emissions 20–25% from its 1990 emission levels by the year 2020.
