Global warming, in other words gradual increase in the temperature of the Earth's near-surface air and oceans. In my last blog I talked about change in lifestyle. There is always –ve impact assiciated with +ve. Just like every action has a reaction. Global warming is one example. With so many change in lifestyle, people are moving more towards their outer development. Every one has a dream to have house in centre of the city with good AC car. They cut trees to build their house. One of the main reason behind the global warming is due to increase in greenhouse gases. Trees help us to reduce that. But only fewer people understand this. Some people tend not to understand even though they understand. Gradual climate change may lead to warmer earth and a warmer earth may lead to less rainfall, a rise in sea level. This may affect wide range of plants, wildlife, and humans. We learn about benefit of plants in primary classes. Increased greenhouse gases i.e. CO2, SO2 can create hole in ozone layer. Whoever has gone through primary education, he must understand the benefits of plants. Then why are we hesitant to implement this. When you go to hill stations, you praise about the greenery there. But when you are back to your home town, you forget about it. Why can’t you think of making your town green? The same can be done at your home town also.
Causes of Global warming:
Using CO2 emitting vehicle.
Emission of CO2 from factories and power plants.
CO2 from Airplanes.
Cutting trees. Deforestation.
How can we help :
Reduce power consumption by using low power consuming utilities like CFL. Use solar lamp, solar geezer, Solar heater. Buy electric saver product such as TV, Computer with ENERGY SAVER mark.
Use CNG vehicle. Driving car and auto using electricity is also not a bad idea. Walking small destination will also help you as well as environment.
Do as many plantations as you can. You can also advise others to do the same. Talk to your family and friends and make them aware of global warming causes. Let them know what you have learnt so far.
Recycle plastic bags, used cans, bottles and papers.

Hey Nidhi,
Good article this. I read a similar article by you on blog talk in Bangalore Mirror. I too have been a blogger for a while. SO was very interested and followed the link :). May I know where I can mail you? In fact, I too am interested in posting to that column. Wanted to know how. I thought, if not a fellow blogger, who can help more?
