Experts in climatology and other scientists are becoming extremely concerned about the changes to our climate which are taking place Admittedly, climate changes have occurred on our planet before For example, there have been several ice ages or glacial periods

These climatic changes, however, were different from the modern ones in that they occurred gradually and, as far as we know, naturally The changes currently being monitored are said to be the result not of natural causes, but of human activity Furthermore, the rate of change is becoming alarmingly rapid

These in turn could have a harmful effect on agriculture

It is thought that this unusual warming of the Earth has been caused by so-called greenhouse gases, such as carbon dioxide, being emitted into the atmosphere by car engines and modern industrial processes, for example Such gases not only add to the pollution of the atmosphere, but also create a greenhouse effect, by which the heat of the sun is trapped This leads to the warming up of the planet

Politicians are also concerned about climate change and there are now regular summits on the subject, attended by representatives from around 180 of the world’s industrialized countries Of these summits, the most important took place in Kyotoin Japanin 1997 There it was agreed that the most industrialized countries would try to reduce the volume of greenhouse gas emissions and were given targets for this reduction of emissions

Becoming an Art Dealer

It is many people’s dream to become a world-famous artist Unfortunately, it can be extremely difficult to make a living solely from selling your paintings or sculptures But don’t worry because there are other jobs in the world of art that you can pursue One possible career option is to become an art dealer

An art dealer works on behalf of artists to help them sell works to museums and galleries around the world To be successful at this profession, it requires a well-rounded skill set For starters, it helps a lot if you love art and are knowledgeable about art history Having business skills will also be quite useful, as it will be necessary to negotiate with buyers, and help the artists you represent market their work If becoming an art dealer sounds appealing, there are several steps which you can follow Although you may have a love for a wide range of styles, you should start by choosing one category to focus on Buyers usually prefer to deal with a specialist in a particular area than someone who is a jack of all trades When selecting your focus, choose an area that you are passionate about instead of something that seems lucrative Art trends come and go, so there is no use trying to predict what is hot These trends will certainly change over the course of your career

Once you selected an area to focus on, start to contact some museums, galleries, and other companies in the art world and send them your resume The majority of art dealers begin their careers working as interns for these kinds of companies Although these interns may be paid little, or in some cases nothing at all, the experience of learning how art businesses work will certainly serve you down the road
