2016 was the warmest year
2016 was the warmest year on the instrumental record since
the late 19th century, and the hottest of three record-breaking years in a row. The trend is a warning to all countries
that they cannot afford to rely on carbon-intensive growth any longer. The rise
in temperature was largely by increased carbon dioxide and other human-made
emissions into the atmosphere.
A warming globe with changes to the climate in the form of
altered rainfall, drought, floods, lost biodiversity and reduced crop yields
would particularly affect millions in China and India. Union Power Minister Piyush Goyal has
promised a steady increase in solar power capacity, going beyond the target of
100 gigawatts by 2022,
The leaders of the world must revise their industrialization
policy in no time because prevention is better than cure. These require a
prompt actions by the all the international organizations. Whenever any country
tries to bring green revolution in energy utilization, forums like WTO and
super powers like USA, USSR etc. should be supportive and have a look at the
things beyond optimization of profit in international Trade & Commerce.
Indian government must impose strict rules on vehicle
emission and factories and educate people on global warming. Though rules were
made by our government, the government officials fail to take strict actions against
rule breakers
Every country should take steps to prevent global warming in
their own interest. In fact, they should help each other in preventing global
warming. Environmental changes are not linear to be able to predict in a
straight line. It is highly nonlinear and its impact will be sudden after
crossing tipping point. India would be better off living simple life. Global
warming would not spare rich. It is a message Trump should take to heart and so
also Modi with all his development plans. Every Indian irrespective of caste,
creed, literate or illiterate have to understand the impact of climate change
and which they must tackle somehow or the other.
India has to reduce the heat by controlling the emission of
carbon from fossil fuels and increase the renewable energy namely solar power. Already
the awareness on solar energy is spreading and it 2020 it will take its optimum
growth. But reducing carbon emission as promised in the Paris climate agreement
is a tough task at this juncture of activating ‘Make in India’ concept and
boosting the export market for which increased carbon emission is unavoidabe. Carbon
emission coupled with pending El nino effect is a double whammy for India and
we have to tackle the problem by adopting right approach.
