CLIMATE CHANGE FOR SCEPTICALS


Edition-1
     Cut Trees, Burn Coal. Burn some other fossil fuel too, let us say oil. Do it for 200 years. In addition, result you have climate change on your hands. So well human beings that we are finding it difficult to change, even if our very survival hinges on it, have perfected this recipe. Climate change, by the way, is how the earth’s climate is getting impacted by carbon-di-oxide emissions & other green house gases, courtesy the cutting & burning. It, of course, means a hotter plant. However, it also means changes in rainfall patterns, ocean currents & melting of glaciers. It would not make for a livable planet. The Maldives, for instance, is seen sinking. Yet, skeptics still call climate change fiction.
