Impacts of climate change are already being observed and are expected to become more pronounced. Extreme weatherevents, including heat waves, droughts and floods are expected to become more frequent and intense. Global warmingis a natural phenomenon. It is important that the alarm was pulled and the countries of the world cooperate to maintainenvironmental quality, given that all the people are the main beneficiary of a healthy environment. Climate change isone of the biggest threats to the environment, social and economic framework. Warming of the climate system isunequivocal. Climate change is the biggest failure and the largest scale yet. Observations show increases in globalaverage temperature of the ocean water and an extensive melting of snow and ice and rising global average sea level.Over the past 150 years, mean temperature has increased by almost 0.8ºC on the Earth and about 1ºC in Europe. Inearly 2009, the European Commission presented detailed proposals on how to achieve these objectives. They includeincreasing the amount of money invested in the development of less carbon technologies, especially in developingcountries, innovative sources of international finance, international carbon market by 2015 and measures to helpcountries adapt to changes climate. The European Union welcomed the outcome of the climate change conference heldin Doha in 2012, laying the foundation for more ambitious international action against climate change in the shortterm, opening the way for a new common future on climate change to be completed in 2015 and allowed starting from 1January 2013, a second commitment period under the Kyoto Protocol. Reference points of the international meeting arethose concerning our common future, given that the peoples of the world are the ones who should benefit from the localenvironment, states and every citizen of planet must only through an awareness of the high intensity effort and will beable to achieve the aim of reducing emissions. 21st Century Europe must have the role of a catalyst so that the forcehas, through experience and its traditions lead to a convergence of efforts of all countries of the world in the fightagainst pollution of any kind and in particular the pollution caused by exhaust emissions.
