The discussion of eco-energy technologies and eco-economy policies are of the utmost importance to avert climate change in order to have a sustainable life in the world. A conference on global climate change was organised to discuss the aforementioned issues on 6th and 7th of November 2013 at the Yildiz Technical University with the collaboration of Yildiz Technical University, Siegen University and Istanbul Branches of Turkish Chambers of Mechanical, Civil and Forest Engineers. In this book we have published a selection of the papers presented during this conference. On behalf of our university and the conference organisation committee, I would like to thank Prof. Dr. İsmail Yüksek , the Rector of Yıldız Technical University, Prof. Dr. Nuran Plehvarian, the Dean of the Faculty of Architecture, the Goethe Institute in Istanbul, Friedrich Ebert and Heinrich Böll Foundations along with the Istanbul Branches of Turkish Chambers of Engineers, and companies from the industry for their support. Additionally I would like to thank Dr. Zeynep Kaçmaz and Mr. Serkan Şaltan who assisted me in the production of this book. Editor Prof. Dr. Semra Atabay Yildiz Technical University 2014 FOREWORD It is obvious that in the last century ‘Global Climate Change’, which arose depending upon the factors such as population growth, industrialization and urbanization, has produced a series of problems which threaten environmental sustainability and have to be handled at international level. In this meaning, it can be emphasized that many international studies, which were started to be performed dating from the second half of the 20th century, have put forth environmental protection policies and development legislations in order to solve these problems. Every passing day, more researchers have started to deal with these vital problems; and, many congresses, conferences, workshops gathering around a common vision that aims to reach a sustainable future have been conducted following each other. In this context, I should specify that this book, which has been compiled from a number of selected papers in the conference on ‘Global Climate Change’ carried out on 6th and 7th of November 2013 at our university, has a unique importance because of focusing on climatic problems of our century. Moreover, I believe that this book, which investigates the causes of ‘Global Climate Change’, discusses the current and probable results and seeks the solutions, has been completed with the support of many people and institutions deserving thanks. In this sense I would like to thank, first and foremost,Prof. Dr. İsmail Yüksek, the Rector of Yıldız Technical University, who hosts this conference at our university and Prof. Dr. Semra Atabay who has built this study on her experience and valuable ideas and compiled this book meticulously, then, Siegen University, Goethe-Institut Istanbul, The Friedrich Ebert Foundation, The Heinrich Böll Foundation, Istanbul Branches of Turkish Chambers of Mechanical, Civil and Forest Engineers and the organization committees of the conference, and finally, all the authors who have dealt with such an important issue and enriched this book with their studies. Hoping that this study can pave the way for new ideas and lead to further studies in order to be able to live in sustainable and healthy environment… Prof. Dr. Nuran Kara Plehvarian Dean Faculty of Architecture, Yıldız Technical University GLOBAL CLIMATE CHANGE Prof. Dr. Semra Atabay Yıldız Technical University 1. INTRODUCTION The rapid industrialisation of the 19th century was driven by the use of fossil fuels as energy source for industry as well as heating and transport purposes. The very large amounts of carbon dioxide generated by this process caused a greenhouse effect in the atmosphere. Meanwhile the impact of the industralisation on the global climate system is an established scientific fact as the added influence of greenhouse gases average global temperatures have increased by 1oC over the course of the past one hundred years. Today we still generate most of our energy from fossil fuels and the level of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere is now 40% higher than the period before the industrialisation. As a result, the average global surface temperature has risen between 1900 and 2012 by approximately 0.9 oC. (Atabay, 2012) One important indicator is the atmospheric carbon dioxide concentration. In the 1850s, at the beginning of the industrial revolution, it stood at 280 ppm; in the 1980s it had reached 350 ppm, and in May 2013 it was found to be at a level of 400 ppm. Many climate experts suggest that the CO2 concentration should be below 350 ppm in order to be on the safe side. (Atabay, Karasu, 2013) Over the past years we have witnessed a series of unusual weather events caused by
