Global Warming- Fact or Fiction

Beware guyz!! The world is heating up!! This according to the Nobel prize winning IPCC is the case and if nothing is done soon, we may loose all our glaciers and islands before this century draws to a close. It even predicted that our Himalayan glaciers would vanish by the year 2035. This, it now emerges is a piece of fiction and no such immeite threat exists. It now emerges that the claim by the IPCC that global warming leads to increase in natural disasters was totally unresearched.

The recent Copenhagen summit generated a lot of interest. The world leders gathered to discuss the future of our planet and in the end pledged hundreds of billions of dollars to save the planet from the threat of global warming. The issue has reached such a stage that anyone questioning its validity is taken to be a traitor to the planet. It even emerged during the summit that there was a concerted attempt to hide the views of certain scientists claiming global warming to be exaggerated. If the latest reports are to be believed, reports about mountain ice melting is actually based on a student’s essay and does not have any scientific base.

Now let us for a while go back to the 1970’s era. There was no global warming then, but infact the opposite- GLOBAL COOLING!!! Scientists had infact predicted a fall in global temperatures through the years.over the years, this theory died down and global warming took its place. The rise of the IPCC and the emrgence of green groups around the world led to the explosion of this theory, so much so that our agriculture minister does not mind blaming price rise on Global Warming!!!

So is Global Warming for real? The earth’s temparatures are indeed rising. What is in doubt is whether humans are causing it. Throughout history there have been periods of rising and falling temperatures and this according to critics is just one such period. Others argue that unless we act fast it might just be too late to save the planet. Whatever it is, I guess we will know soon enough …this time 4 sure…..
