    We need to stop climate change

    Nowadays, climate change is biggest problem for our environment. Everywhere climate is changing. Generally, climate change is described as a change in the average condition of climate such as temperature and rainfall in a region over a long period. For example, 20,000 years ago much of the places in United States were covered in glaciers. But today, we have a warmer climate and fewer glaciers. Besides, we are observing that the sea level is rising, shrinking mountain glacier, and Ice melting at a faster rate than usual in Greenland, Antarctica, and the Arctic regions It's effects on plants and animals are very dangerous. We need to stop it within no time. Otherwise, our ecosystem will be unbalanced. What is your opinion about it.

    A real problem discussed many times on many platforms including ISC also. Why the climate is changing? What is making climate change? Who is responsible for this? These are the questions one should ask themselves to understand where is the actual problem.
    We want to be comfortable at the cost of nature and others. This selfish motto of human beings is only making this happen. You smoke and leave the gases in the atmosphere. You sit in an AC room leaving waste gases in the atmosphere. How much amount of greenhouse gases finding their way into the atmosphere and into the universe? Take a stock of these things. We will understand how we are responsible and what we should do to stop this change.
    Small small changes in our lifestyle will bring a lot of change. Don't smoke in a public place. Start travelling in the public transport system instead of personal vehicles. Minimise using ACs in our houses and office. Such actions will bring big changes in the climate.

    Climate change is a complex topic but the main reason attributable to the global warming is the exhaust from the petrol and diesel vehicles and burning of wood and other such material in jungles or households that produce gases affecting the atmosphere which in turns brings greenhouse effect on Earth raising the temperatures.
    Once the changeover from petrol and diesel vehicles to electrical vehicles is complete and the burning of coal and wood is controlled then we can hope for a reversal in global warming. The present global warming is man made and it is imperative that we only have to find a solution to stop it.

    Yes, we have to stop climate change. Human beings are responsible for all natural and environmental problems. We have exploited nature for our selfish motto. We have destroyed the forests which are necessary for ecological balance.

    There is a single solution for all environmental problems. We have to plant more trees. Though we do plantation but only for taking images. We are not serious. We have to create awareness about the importance of plantations. We have to understand that the plantation is a necessity if we want to survive in the future.

    Honesty is the best policy.

    There are some other factors also which change the climate in addition to the man made actions. But they are on a bigger time scale in the range of thousand or lakhs of years. It is interesting to know about that and I will like to share that scientific information here.
    The earth crust is not a single spherical plate as it appears in the globe. There are many cracks, faults, and fissures in the earth crust and that divide it in various plates. As these plates are floating on the soft rocks or molten lava below these plates try to press each other and try to move in a resultant direction. This movement is very slow and of the order of say one cm per year or something like that and it is not perceptible to the human eyes. But it is responsible for the making of hill ranges, valleys, oceans and all other geographical features on the earth. The land mass which is seen at different places in the ocean is known as continent but due to the plate movements (which is also known as tectonic movement) these continents appear to drift from one place to another. That is one main reason which affect the climate of the places. If the land mass concentrates in Northern and Southern pole sides then naturally snow will be there and world will be a cooler place. In fact in the geological history of the Earth there had been many ice ages and the temperature of earth dropped significantly.
    The above tectonic activities are on a very large time line and they have nothing to do with the quickly changing climate today due to the burning of wood and burning of diesel and petrol in the world.

    We cannot change the climate on any account lest we can change ourselves without going out at all. Because the climate change is inevitable and necessary for one section of people though it is hampering others. Sudden rainfall will affect the salt seller but not the betel leave seller. Regular rainfall is invited by farmer rather than city dwellers/office goers.
    We can modify our steps to the extent of non-polluting the climate by creating unwanted smokes, mixing chemicals in to rivers or water links.
    We have commented and almost stopping the smoke from homa, done by priests etc., but increasing and justifying the smoke through cigarettes.
