Global Warming, the true cause !

2010 is a hot year, as hot as 1998 or 2005.

This video explains Global Warming and what are the causative factors which may facilitate change in climate.

Emission of Greenhouse gases, like Co2, Methane, Nitrous Oxide and Sulphur Hexaflouride are widely believed to increase warmth. Anthropogenic ( human ) activity also contribute to G W.

Factories and power plants also compound the problem. Thermal power plants are based on Coal and fossil fuel burning is another cause. It is estimated that the burning of fossil fuels release 10 billion tonnes of Co2 into the atmosphere per year.

Hence the importance of Wind Power and Solar Power now. ( The installed capacity of Wind Power is just 10 Giga Watts now, but will increase in the coming years. For Solar Power, the Center received proposals for $40 b of late. The Center has plans of generating 20 Giga Watts of Solar power within ten years.)

Deforestation is bad, as trees can absorb Co2 and give out Oxygen. Reforestation is the remedy.

Energy Management, Water Management etc are the needs of the hour. Unless we change, the planet is headed for big trouble !
