Many of you readers would be confused as to where this title came from. Well, it is actually a movie I saw the other day on HBO. It is a documentary movie which talks about global warming. There is a saying, ‘The only thing permanent in this world is change’ and this is something to which the world even abides to. With changing trends and necessities we come up with solutions which satisfy such needs. Coming back to the movie this is what it is about. It talks about, how global warming takes place and what its consequences are. Talking about consequences, I can bet my life on the fact that it is going send a shudder down your spine.
The reasons might be one of the below:
1) The greenhouse gases which trap heat which is transmitted by the sun to the earth and makes the thin layer of atmosphere thicker day by day.
2) The soaring levels of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere and the rate at which its growing each day due to misuse of energy that most of the times, WE do.
3) Research shows, that the growing levels of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere and the soaring levels of heat shows similar trend.
4) The melting of glaciers, polar snow and drying up of lakes and rivers which later on results to flood, drought, more diseases, tornadoes, tsunami, and many such natural catastrophes.
5) The growing trends over the years show a huge upsurge in levels of heat in the atmosphere and projected trends (i.e. 50-70 years down the line) shows levels at which the existence of life on earth might be at stake.
6) Generally, people believe that changes in nature are brought about in generations and through centuries. This might be very untrue at circumstances.
7) Researchers believed that icebergs and glaciers would take years to melt into water. But the momentum at which its melting, actually takes a few days.
8) Due to changing patterns which are actually the after effects of global warming, came into picture almost thirty new diseases which have devastating effects. Viruses which are potentially more harmful and powerful. SARS is said to be one such disease which came to existence during the period when the environment was going through such changes and brought devastating effects. Several viruses which were previously brought into control through several immunization practices are again regaining their potential. Insects are evolving and are changing their behavioral patterns.
One premier reason behind global warming:
The population which is growing in geometric progression will eventually result in scarcity in several strata’s such as:
--Food
--Shelter because land is scarce
--Water
--Electricity and other energy sources
The world today is reaching newer heights. Whether we talk about financial sectors, automobiles with its product design developments to innovations regarding product features, they are growing steeply and saliently. All of them aim at registering higher volumes of sales, profit, and customer relationship. It’s a perfect rat race. What we fail to understand is that it is not too far that all of this might come to an end if appropriate measures are not taken. The newer issues that most of the times are a concern for all of us are b) terrorism c) communalism d) security measures e) nuclear power etc. There is something which we are forgetting. a) Nature. If not taken care of, it might lead to disasters and natural catastrophes which will eventually draw a line to our existence. An Armageddon is in the offing which might shift the cycle to yet another ice age.
