Lets us have a look at the common issues which really has a drastic effects on the climate which
constituent for the Global Warming. Developing nations and emerging nations should consider these in there eco-friendly conversational plans.
Here are the 5 issues:
Nuclear Waste:
Close your eyes and imagine for a moment, that global warming were reversed, pesticides banned,
and the auto industry no longer received corporate welfare. Even as we celebrated, this reality
would remain:i.e., radiation is forever. For e.g., the half-life most of these nuclear components
in the environment is 15 years which is bad enough. If u take that as more, hers the fact
half-life of uranium-235 is 704 million years; and for uranium-238, it's about 4.47 billion years.
Action Item: Nuclear Energy can never be clean energy.
Factory Farming
Remember juicy chicken leg pieces of our famous food restaurants. When we get into facts each day, factory farms (farms that grow animals commercially) produce billions of pounds of manure, which
ends up in lakes, rivers, and drinking water.Of all the agricultural land in the U.S and other countries most part is used grow animals for food and the grain to feed them. Chickens, pigs, cattle, and other animals raised for food are the primary consumers of water in the U.S. Imagine how many gallons of water is being consumed for these activities.
Action Item: Go vegetarian.
Deforestation
Remember school days giving names for Elocution on topics of popular topic Deforestation, studying for Social studies,Science exam with question on Deforestation. Yes, it is a serious problem as
we all know Deforestation, is the permanent destruction of indigenous forests and woodlands.
Greenpeace tells us that an area of natural forest the size of a football field is being chopped
down every two seconds. Many reasons for deforestation exists like cattle grazing, agriculture,
mining, oil extraction, population expansion, dams, pipelines and other infrastructure projects.
Action Item: Understanding the connection between what we eat and why trees are important.
Overfishing
For most of us Finding Nemo is one of the favourite animation movie. Our love to eat Sea Food has irreversible effects on the populations of fish in our oceans. If this continues a DVD of Finding Nemo is the only way we’ll be able to explain the concept of underwater life to our grandchildren.
Action Item: Away from fish in your diet.
Use of Pesticides
I think most have seen a vehicle going all around the city blowing thick gas for mosquitoes, and few kids playing on the gas going after that vehicles visualzing themselves as characters of a movie. We need to accept the use of pesticides is really increasing, starting from sprays to kill insects, on huge areas of crops etc. Though we cannot stop it completely we can always reduce the amounts.
Action Item: Go organic.
Though the thinking of one cannot make any big difference for these issues but the same thinking by all of us, Will for Sure make an impact. We can educate people on the outputs of these issues doing our part.
Go Green!!!!!!
