Is the world ending - 2 ?

Hi All,
Thanks for all your comments and posts. I really don't know what can be done, so that this climate change can be stopped. There are so many things which are happening now in the world, which is a sure indication of what might happen in future.
         Look at past 5 years and thats what says a lot, first came the Tsunami, then there was this big destruction, I guess a Hurricane in US, then lately the Myanmar flood and now a big earthquake in China. I am sure many of you wont even agree that this all has happened due to climate change but I do believe that Climate change has a major effect on all the above disasters that struck. We just cant imagine how all these people would be going through now, the pain, physical and mental would be at its peak, losing the dear ones, then too when you know that it came so suddenly which was completely unexpected.
         When I travel everyday from my home to office about 20 kms, after seeing the amount of traffic and the amount of pollution happening, if i stay in Bangalore for another 10 to 12 months in this situation I am sure I will face some serious health problems. Every moment when I drive on the roads only thing that pops up in my mind is how can we make these rickshaw drivers, truck drivers all other vehicles understand about the amount of pollution they are creating,although they are not polluting the city purposefully but may be educating them and letting them know about the importance of keeping the vehicle in the proper condition would really help.
        Below is an article that I was reading on NDTV website which tells the facts of Global warming today:

Here's a look at what's destroying the earth and how it will change things for all of us.

Carbon emission

# India is the fourth largest carbon emitter in the world after USA, Australia and China.

# USA's per capita carbon emissions are 20 times that of India.

Global warming

# Melting ice from Himalayan glaciers and other global ice sheets causes rise in sea levels.

# Rising sea levels could force 75 million people from Bangladesh and 125 million from India's coastal areas to the interiors.

# Global warming will affect monsoon patterns in India.

Food security

# Steady fall in food supply across the world due to stagnation in farm output.

# Climate change threatens to worsen food insecurity in the world's poorest regions.

# Rising temperatures will affect crop yields in 40 developing countries.

# Global warming will increase food prices by 40 per cent.

I really hope that someday we will get serious about this issue and start working towards it.

Cheers,

Is the world ending?

Global Warming, increasing climate change, storms and the list goes on which is being happening in past few years.

        When we look back and see how our planet was and how it is today it is really strange that even though we knew what are the effects of using any particular product which is going to effect the environment thinking that what the hell of a difference its gonna make if only I use it, with a single user its gonna make no difference well this is what all of us think.

We think a lot about ourselves when it comes to life that is what human tendency is, we are hardly bothered whats happening in the outside world. When people ask us what are your future plans, most of the common answers that you get are " well i would like to be an software engineer or doctor or something else and get into a good job get settled and live my life". What do you mean by getting settled inst there any responsibility towards their society towards their land which has given us so much.

        People invest thousands and cores with a 10 year or a 20 year plan but the way the climate change is being happening who knows what is going to remain and what is not, small children who are dreaming about seeing tomorrow, they don't even know if they will be able to see it the way it is today.

        I have hardly seen anyone being serious about Global warming even students who are studying environment, at least they should be taking some steps towards that and doing some awareness about sudden climate change. No ones taking it seriously apart from few of people who realize the importance of it, rest of us we all are just worried whats gonna happen in our lives and that we wanna live a good settled life.

        Even if all of us we can understand and realize each of us can contribute towards it in our own manner. As far as I am concerned I have already started and I am going to keep on writing on this topic for a very long time. I have not yet got a internet connection at home which I should get soon,once I get that I will be writing a whole lot of articles on this. I hope that all you readers will pass on this articles to your friends.

        I dont want publicity to my web blog,if you feel so post it, I will create a different blog only for our planet Earth which is mother of all living things on the planet.
SAVE OUR PLANET EARTH
