Can we stop a Catastrophic Future!


Global Warming refers to significant changes in global temperature, unpredictable wind pattern and other to measures of climate that occurs over several decades or longer. For the last couple of centuries, this change has made a notable impact on our Biophysical environment and eco-system which aggressively destroys the earth’s biodiversity.

Rising sea level, Atmospheric hotness, Ozone Depletion, and few human activities which went out of control for instance: Deforestation, Ocean acidification, Human Population, poor waste management in a massive quantity and aggressive urban sprawl are the global activity which ignites Global warming.

While exploring the root cause of how it affects life on earth, Life form on planet earth is carbon-based including humans. The carbon supports our life is CO, it holds one carbon molecule and one oxygen molecule. It gets complicated when humans release colorless carbon dioxide gas with a density of 60 percent higher than the dry air. Carbon dioxide consists of a carbon atom covalently double bonded to two oxygen atoms which do not provide a habitable atmosphere for any living organism.


A couple of months ago, I’ve visited Delhi. Air Quality Index was displayed in the Delhi metro station. It showcased Delhi’s pollution level of 439 AQI (Air Quality Index) during the peak level of air pollution where countries like Canada only had 9 AQI on the same day. however, during this study, I felt a shock wave within myself after witnessing this scale which shows three Degree of Climate Destabilization. It showcases warning levels of raising Global Temperature and how hard it’s gonna hit the existence of all life forms. Climate Activist Greta Thunberg’s voice on “We are at the beginning of mass extinction” knocked my head after understanding the general idea on Global Warning and climate justice in-depth. 

This exploration leads me to find the changes on planet earth in specific to ever-changing yet unpredictable climatic conditions via NASA’s earth observatory. The website presented a 50-second video on the drastic change in earth’s climate which gradually increased from the little ice age to the current time (1885 to 2014) temperature raising from -2.5 to +2.5.
 I also came across the keeling curve graph of the accumulation of carbon dioxide in the Earth's atmosphere based on continuous measurements taken at the Mauna Loa Observatory on the island of Hawaii from 1958 to the present day which technically shows how our global development via industrialization has pulling growth of the lifespan of each lifeform.

Nature never disappoints to fascinate, during this study I came across few types of natural phenomena include Permafrost in geology, causes of extreme Weather and fog, thunder, tornadoes; decomposition, germination; physical processes, erosion; tidal flow, and natural disasters such as volcanic eruptions, and earthquakes. Global warming disturbs all these earth’s nature happenings and places environment in a catastrophic position where life forms may not able to adapt or sustain.

Being You...

As most of you are aware , we are in the era where the entire society is talking about the prime elements of the end of the world , call for rapid change and care for the mother earth and some where in bits and pieces people talk, amidst all that the society at large many speak but nothing comes out in practice and amidst fast changing society the trends have changed to look up to a whole lot of development but side by side the main cross roads of individual values, respect , care and concern is a doubt, from the small issues in our day to day life to the injustices that happen to women and to a whole lot of problems that go unnoticed, this is a society where we live in, from the recent incidents of brutality to the call from a nobody to a somebody and suddenly the world looks up to her as change, personally trends have changed but people haven't to my knowledge of understanding . I have been personally listening to incidents for almost a decade and hardly things have changed nor i have made little attemps to change in my livelihood.
Likewise understanding the fact, there must certainly br quite a lot of people who must not be aware of these instances that the entire world is encountering annd they must be worried about their own livelihood.
So is this the end? Understanding the Society at large do we look up to our world alone or do we feel accountable to our society at large ! Is what i believe is the question we need to seriously look into.Amidst the fast moving world i believe if we as an individual can look upto our values and being accountable to our own actions will be our simple solution to cater to a whole lot of talking that our world is speaking about..

Taking care for our words and being accountable for our actions is the best thing we can look up to do to be there to safeguard our society for Survival.

WHY BEING THERE ALWAYS IS LIFE CHANGING
