A report by the
Centre for Science & Environment (CSE) just out, says : 1. धरती के वायुमंडल में ग्रीन हाउस गैस का
स्तर पिछले 8 लाख वर्षों में उच्चतम स्तर पर पहुंच गया है. 2. 1901 से 2017 के बीच, भारत का औसत वार्षिक
तापमान लगभग 1.2 डिग्री सेल्सियस बढ़ गया है। 3. हम 3 से 4 डिग्री सेल्सियस के औसत तापमान वृद्धि की
ओर बढ़ रहे हैं (by the year 2100).

Many articles are pointing out that
at the current rate of Co2 burning (via use of petrol, coal, cooking gas – all
energy essentially – that we use in homes, for transport and in manufacturing
the products we buy, and via burning of crop residues & forests), we are
hurtling towards raising the temperature on earth (compared to pre-industrial
levels) by 2 degrees C in just 30 years. Our children will certainly experience
those impacts and worse, as the worldwide temperature increases beyond 2
degrees to 3+ and then 4+ after 2050 uptil 2100.
How does this temperature
increase impact our day to day life ? As we go on, it will spell the difference
between life and death for vast numbers of humanity – and trees, forests and
animals. I request that you urgently see this film by the National Geographic Channel – Six Degrees can change the World - Much of the film’s data is from 2005 – so we are already 10+
years ahead in the curve.
