▼ The global climate is changing faster now than it has at any point in the past 2,000 years.
That's the conclusion of a trio of paperspublished July 24 in the journals Nature and Nature Geoscience that examined the global climate over the past two millennia. The researchers showed that none of the past fluctuations — that is, not the Little Ice Age, the warm period known as the Medieval Climate Anomaly or any other famous shift — had the global reach that modern climate change is having. Past fluctuations tended to be localized, affecting primarily one region at a time. Modern climate change, by contrast, is messing with the entire world.
"Temperatures did not rise and fall everywhere in step [in the past]," editors wrote in an accompanying opinion piece in Nature Geoscience. "Specifically, early cool or warm intervals that lasted for centuries peaked at different times in different regions."
That's a radical departure from modern climate change, Scott St. George, a climate researcher at the University of Minnesota who wasn't involved in the research, wrote in a news and views articlefor Nature.  (▪ ▪ ▪)

Not surprised. Man has lost respect for nature and so he is facing the consequences. Climate issues are going to be the scourge of the century

Climate change is the biggest crisis, mankind is staring at. If it is not handled in time, God knows what will happen.

Humble request to all --> Respect nature, conserve nature and appreciate the gift that God has given us.

Humble request to all: #PutUpOrShutUp

"You're either part of the problem, or, you're part of the solution."
Share just one of your personal environmental practices so that the rest of us can learn.

I'll start with what I take to the riverbank when I fish:

Yes, it's a lonely toilet paper tube.
If you don't use toilet paper (!), half a paper towel tube substitutes.
Re-enforce tube with tape and fill with 5-6 plastic bags.

This dispenser can now be organized in your pocket or bag.
When you have the community consciousness of picking up some asshat's trash, you're prepared.
Bonus: share this concept with formative children.

Vinash kaale vipreet buddhi.

First of all the earth is getting overpopulated and commercialization of everything has reduced the importance of everything provided by the nature.

We simply abuse a lot of resources, if the same it used carefully it would last us long. In many countries of the world especially south America and Africa the jungles are being reduced at the fastest pace. Industrial and Vehicular pollution each year are breaking records.

I use water sparingly, use air conditioner very sparingly not more then 1 hour a day, reuse the paper where ever possible and store most of my records digitally to save paper. I try and use eco-friendly disposables. Keep the electrical and electronic appliances off immediately after use. Do not use the home lighting too much due to ample daylight from bigger windows.
