Goals - GCGW-12 is a multi–disciplinary international conference on the global warming and climate change issues and potential solutions, and will provide a forum for the exchange of latest technical information, the dissemination of the high-quality research results on the issues, the presentation of the new developments in the area of global warming and climate change, and the debate and shaping of future directions and priorities for better environment, sustainable development and energy security. The primary themes of the conference are global warming and climate change, not only in engineering and science but also in all other disciplines (e.g. ecology, education, social sciences, economics, management, political sciences, and information technology). Therefore, papers on related topics are solicited from all relevant disciplinary areas, ranging from current problems, projections, new concepts, modeling, experiments and measurements, to simulations.
Format - The format of the GCGW-12 will be arranged with the following major elements as general papers presented in oral sessions, keynote papers by invited speakers, and panel discussion and specialized sessions on special topics. There will also be exhibitions, social events and pre- and post-symposium tours. High quality papers of archival value will be considered in extended form for publication in various reputable international journals.
