The Heated Earth

The warming and cooling of our blue planet is a natural phenomenon and is a result of subtle shifts in its orbit as the atmosphere or surface changed and also because of the variance in the Sun’s energy which is responsible for climate change But, the past century has witnessed a cataclysm in this change solely because of “global warming.” Global warming is the bizarrely hasty swell in Earth’s average surface temperature principally due to the greenhouse gases released because of the reckless usage and consumption of fossil fuels. The global average surface temperature has risen exponentially, and the rate of temperature increase has nearly doubled in the last 50 years.

Earth’s temperature rise begins with the Sun. More or less 30 percent of the incoming sunlight is reflected back and the remaining 70 percent is absorbed by the land and ocean, and by the atmosphere. The absorbed solar energy is responsible for heating up the earth. This absorption and radiation of heat by the atmosphere is the natural greenhouse effect that is essential and beneficial for life on Earth. If there were no greenhouse effect, the Earth’s average surface temperature would have been very chilly and uncomfortable. Due to careless human behavior and actions the concentration of greenhouse gases has risen immensely; the chief reasons being deforestation and burning of fossil fuels. The atmosphere today contains more greenhouse gas molecules and hence all the climate change issues are occurring all over the world. We should pledge to Go Green & work for Earth care to keep our planet from degrading any further. http://www.gogreenindia.co.in/thegoodearth/

Adapting to Climate Change

This should not come as surprise that Global climate change has already had observable effects on

the environment. Glaciers have shrunk, ice on rivers and lakes is breaking up earlier, plant and animal ranges have shifted and trees are flowering sooner. Burning fossil fuels such as natural gas, coal, oil and gasoline raises the level of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere, and carbon dioxide is a major contributor to the greenhouse effect and global warming. The outcome of any significant climate change will be varied rather than simply an overall increase in average or nocturnal temperatures. 

With the entire goings around environmental sphere, scientists predicted in the past that there would be effects which would result from global climate change and they are now occurring in terms of loss of sea ice, accelerated sea level rise and longer, more intense heat waves. The climate change impact due to global warming in India is the increase in number of people suffering from death, disease and injury from heat waves, floods, storms and droughts. 

Considering the seriousness of the situation, there are two ways we can deal - mitigation and climate change adaptation. Mitigation addresses the root causes, by reducing greenhouse gas emissions, while adaptation seeks to lower the risks posed by the consequences of climatic changes. Both approaches will be necessary, because even if emissions are dramatically decreased in the next decade, adaptation will still be needed to deal with the global changes that have already been set in motion. If we take action to radically reduce greenhouse gas emissions now, there’s a good chance that we can limit average global temperature rises. This doesn’t mean that there will be no more changes in the climate – warming is already happening – but we could limit, adapt to and manage these changes. Visit http://www.gogreenindia.co.in/

Environmental Awareness with Go Green

Since long time, Go Green has been focused on improving the environment through raising awareness for the crucial topic of environmental concerns and involving the community wherever possible. The need for local people to be involved meaningfully with the improvement of their landscape is compelling. Go Green India project is dedicated to deliver information related to the latest happenings that are taking place in Indian environment. The team working behind this projects aims at bringing forth the various initiatives that are being taken on different levels to slow down and mitigate the rapid changes that are rapidly leading us towards destruction.

These problems cause small increases in the planet’s temperature that lead to big, permanent changes in the climate. Not only human beings but the wild and wacky wildlife is also dependent on these changes of environment. This makes preservation of the natural environment essential, for maintaining community sustainability. There is no room for any more delays or procrastination with respect to efforts in this direction.

Green Across has taken initiative and spreading the awareness regarding environmental hazards and the ways to mitigate them across SAARC (The South Asian Association for Regional Cooperation) nations like India. These problems cause small increases in the planet’s temperature that lead to big, permanent changes in the climate. Dramatic changes in the climate are occurring all around the world and causing more frequent natural disasters and serious problems for people’s health. Not only human beings but the wild and wacky wildlife is also dependent on these changes of environment. This makes preservation of the natural environment essential, for maintaining community sustainability. http://www.gogreenindia.co.in/

Spreading Awareness with Green Across

It is necessary to educate and empower young people about Earth Care scenario to create healthy, just and sustainable communities. Dramatic changes in the climate are occurring all around the world and causing more frequent natural disasters and serious problems for people’s health. This situation, called climate change or global warming, is a group of environmental problems including deforestation, increased pollution of our water and air, and loss of wildlife. These problems cause small increases in the planet’s temperature that lead to big, permanent changes in the climate. Not only human beings but the wild and wacky wildlife is also dependent on these changes of environment. This makes preservation of the natural environment essential, for maintaining community sustainability. Green Across has taken initiative and spreading the awareness regarding environmental hazards and the ways to mitigate them across SAARC (The South Asian Association for Regional Cooperation) nations.

SAARC is an economic and geopolitical organization of eight countries that are primarily located in South Asia. It outlines the need for sustainable use of natural resources and suggests that the protection of resources should be incorporated into national and international systems of law. It has been responsible for the raising initiatives promoting the protection of these resources as life of people and wildlife depends on it. To achieve that we have to make efforts to conserve, protect, and restore all these valuable resources offered by Earth so that we can save all the living beings at risk. @ http://www.gogreenindia.co.in/
