we personally feel this something called "global warming", be it prerna who now just dreams to witness snowfall in her hometown- Shimla . or me, when i walk out in the sun feel roasted to the core.
how about shantilata, lost her family in the super cyclone '99,orissa. being a survivor ,she is unaware of the cause behind the unpredictable heavy storm that ruined her life. She still believes that God was unhappy with her village.
Global warming is caused by green house gases ,which trap in the sun's infrared rays in the earth's atmosphere . The global warming has happened in the past few years and is evident from the rise in mean temperature of the earth's atmosphere.It has led to increase in mean earth temperature and thus melting of polar ice and also to the extinction of animals due to loss of their natural habitat or their inability to evolve to rapid changes in the temperature. There is shift in season cycle, as the summers are getting longer than the winters. global warming is also affecting the crop production, as the crops are getting destroyed by the sudden change in temperatures or sudden on set of rains.
"Better late than never" , its time to use our solution oriented skills - restoring trees and forests to degraded lands , an awareness among individuals , communities and other organizations to join the fight towards a change - a positive change.
JAI HO!!
