The price of climate change affect mother earth
The price of climate change
Sage nanak in 16th century,urged humankind to look away from human artifice and look up and around.All divinity is found in the Majesty of nature.
We pull trees down so that we can have more concrete.
We pollute oceans so that we can have more plastic.
We kill animals indiscriminately so that we can have more toys to play with.
15 natural disasters linked to climate change this year caused damage of more than $1billion
2019 has been the hottest year because of climate change
With the greenhouse gases, once
that energy reaches the Earth's surface, it is absorbed, warms the land and ocean surface of the
planet, and then is re-emitted.
The amount of heat re-emitted and eventually lost to space must equal the amount gained from the Sun if the temperature of the planet is to remain constant.
Extreme weather,fuelled by climate change,struck every corner of the globe in 2019.
From Southern Africa to North America and from Australia and Asia to Europe,floods,storms and fires brought chaos and destruction
Disasters displaced millions and caused deaths.
They included floods that ravaged North lndia,typhoon Lekima in China,Hurricane Dorian in the US, floods in the Midwest and Southern US,typhoon Hagibis in Japan and the California wildfires,these tragedies costed $25 billion.
The World porest people pay the heaviest price for the consequences of climate change
Are we protectors of the earth or destroyers ?
