Words like Snow and Ice are spoken all over the world for the last few decades.. Scientists continues to give warning about just one the many effects of GLOBAL WARMING. What is worse for the Himalayas is that this one excess does nothing to pause and little to hide gradual warming of the range.
According to the latest studies temperatures in the Himalayas have been risen by 1.0 C leading to the highest rate of glacier retreat anywhere in the world. If the present rate continues , the snows on the mountains will disappear by 2030.The Rivers like Indus, Ganges, And Bhrahmaputra take their source from the Himalayan glacier lakes. The reason:
While all are very much known to the issues on dissappearing snow in the Himalayas, and so reasons as Global warming. The increase the amount of Carbon Dioxide in the atmosphere results to globlal warming.There are steps we can take to reduce global warming.
Steps we can do to reduce global warming:
-------------------------------------------------
- Avoid burning plastics:- Burning of plastic emits huge amounts of carbon dioxide to the atmosphere.
- Use compact fluorescent bulbs:- Replace 3 three freequently used light bulbs with compact fluorescent bulbs thus avoid level of CO2.
- Change the AC filter:- Clean or replace dirty air filters as recomended. save 350 lbs of carbon dioxide per year.
- Use recycledpaper:- Makesure printer paper i s100% post consumer recycled paper.
- Cut down meat consumption:- One steak burns 100 lbs right from the start from storing, cooking, and throwing bones.
- Buy minimally packaged goods:- Less package could reduce your garbage by about 10%. Save pounds of carbon dioxide per year.
Global warming is an unfortunate fact of life that we are learning to deal with. Unexpected levels of snow fall and climate changes have become common. We are the people who take action against this. It may not be possible to stop the changes on a sudden but it is possible to slow the changes to rescue our own earth.
