I. UN involvement Several scientific studies prove that humans are the main cuase of global warming, as well as the main victims. Tests have shown that the amount of carbon and polution in the air, that is contributing to global warming, have risen exponentially in the past few years ever since the industrial revolution. The effects of this rise are crucial and evident. Huge polar ice caps have melted completely, the warming temperatures have caused animals' mating seasons to be unsicronized, and several other tradgic coinsidences have occured because of this. The UN has pasted several resolutions concerned with this matter of human induced climate change, and they have also held conferences such as the United Nations Climate Change Conference. Their attempts however are not very successful, because several countries would rather not be concerned with this issue, therefore it is still an ongoing problem.

II. Counrty Profile Iran does feel that human induced climate change is a very real issue that all of us are faced with, and we feel that the efforts that the UN has made to try and reduce our impact on climate changes are important. However, we also would like to aknowledge the fact that this may not be the most pressing issue for our country as well as other countries at the moment, and we feel that it is more urgent that we deal with the issues that are troubling our country today rather than what might affect us in the future, first.

III. Solutions Iran would like to propose that we hold off on making and rash and impulsive moves on fixing human induced climate change immediately. We feel that at the moment we should focuss more on the problems that face us today and worry about tomorrow when the time is more right.
