WHAT HAPPENED??
WHAT IS CLIMATE CHANGE
How ?
 The Earth’s climate is changing in ways
that you can’t easily see.
 The Earth is getting warmer because
people are adding heat trapping gases to
the atmosphere, mainly by burning fossil
fuels. These gases are called greenhouse
gases. Warmer temperatures are causing
changes in the world, such as melting of
glaciers and stronger storms.

EFFECT OF CLIMATE CHANGE
ON FLORA AND FAUNA
 1987 Bihar Flood : The flood of 1987 in Bihar was so destructive that it left a total of
1400 people and more than 5000 animal dead. A total of 67,881+680.86 lac INR was the

Maharashtra in the form of massive floorings, leading to a death toll of 5000 people. The
areas of Mumbai, Chiplun, Khed, Kalyan, Ratnagiri and Raigad were completely flooded,

SMOKING IS INJURIOUS TO HEALTH
SMOKING KILLS
WHAT IS HAPPENING AGAINST CLIMATE CHANGE?
¤ PLANS AND POLICIES ARE BEING MADE BUT
IMPLEMENTATIONS ARE LACKING.
¤ KYOTO PROTOCOL HAS BEEN SIGNED BY MEMBER
COUNTRIES OF THE UN.
¤ LAWS FOR PROTECTING RAINFORESTS OF SOUTH EAST ASIA
AND SOUTH AMERICA HAS BEEN MADE BUT CONSTANTLY
VIOLATED DUE TO LACK OF STRICT IMPLEMENTATION AND
CORRUPTION.
¤ POLICIES ABOUT REDUCING FOSSIL FUEL CONSUMPTON IS
BEING OPPOSED BY OIL COMPANIES.
¤ CERTAIN UTILITY COMPANIES OPPOSE RENEWABLE-UTILITY
COMPANIES FEARING LOSS AND DROP IN STOCKS.
WHAT SHOULD WE DO
That term implies something…
• Uniform across the planet,
• Mainly about temperature,
• Gradual
• Quite possibly benign
What’s actually happening is…
• Highly non-uniform
• Not just about temperature
• Rapid compared to capacities for adjustment
• Harmful for most places and times
Only a reduction of
greenhouse gases’
emission RIGHT NOW
wcould make a
in climate
change.
♦ Walk or take a bicycle for going to nearby
places(it is good for your and the planet’s health).
♦ Use public transports and practice carpooling.
♦ Plant trees on your birthdays(and other days as
well).
♦ Save electricity and petroleum products.
♦ Use cars with good mileage.
♦ Avoid burning plastics and other wastes.
♦ Promote and practice recycling.
♦ Use renewable sources of energy.
♦ Always follow the 3 R’s (Reduce, Reuse and
Recycle).
CHANGE IN ENERGY CONSUMPTION IN COMING YEARS FOR
 REMEMBER:
WE HAVE NOT INHERITED THE EARTH
FROM THE GENERATION BEFORE US

BUT BORROWED IT FROM THE

COMING GENERATION.
 OUR REQUEST:
CHANGE FOR THE WORLD AND FOR YOURSELF;
LET’S CURE OUR SICK PLANET;
REVIVE IT;
AND NOT MAKE OURSELVES
THE DESTROYERS OF OUR HOME .

LET THE FUTURE GENERATIONS STUDY ABOUT US

AS THOSE WHO SAVED THE WORLD
AND NOT AS THOSE WHO DESTROYED THE
WORLD IN WHICH THEY WERE TO LIVE.
