The course consists of two units corresponding to the title of the lecture and a short appendix of generalising content presenting thermodynamic (entropic) approach to the natural and anthropogenic processes. The goal of the course is to convey a comprehensive scientific explanation of the both global phenomena based on rigorous physical and chemical laws. Less attention is paid to socioeconomic consideration due to its frequently subjective and speculative nature.

The course consists of two units corresponding to the title of the lecture and a short appendix of generalising content presenting thermodynamic (entropic) approach to the natural and anthropogenic processes. The goal of the course is to convey a comprehensive scientific explanation of the both global phenomena based on rigorous physical and chemical laws. Less attention is paid to socioeconomic consideration due to its frequently subjective and speculative nature.

The section devoted to global warming covers primarily the following topics: earth energy budget; interaction between radiation and the atmosphere; natural and anthropogenic greenhouse effect; dynamics of warming and feedbacks; mathematical modelling and it's verification; impacts of warming; remedial actions and alternative (renewable) energy sources; international agreements and scenarios of the future development.

The second section, depletion of the ozonosphere is treated in the following chapters: properties and spectrum of solar radiation; filter effect of the atmosphere; stratospheric photochemical processes and mechanisms of ozone formation and destruction; types of ozone depletion compounds; formation of ozone holes; measurement and variability of ozone concentration; impacts on the biosphere and human health; problem's history and adopted measures and legislation.
