Climate Change and Civil Engineering

摘要

Au fil des deux dernières décennies, on a fait beaucoup en matière de changement climatique. Même en ce moment, et peut-être plus encore qu'auparavant, le changement climatique demeure une priorité à travers le monde, et des articles variés paraissent dan%Over the past two decades or more, much work has been done with respect to climate change.
