    1.INTRODUCTION:-From The Stone Age to the modern era man

    has come a long way. In his pursuit of comfortsof life he ignored the threat of pollution and

    environmental degradation caused by

    industrialization.

    Global warming is not new as this process

    occurs naturally and keeps the Earths

    temperature about 50 degrees. Fahrenheit

    warmer than it would be otherwise. Withoutthis natural cover, Earths surface would be

    colder than it is today,, making the planet

    freezing and devoid off life.

    2.What is GREENHOUSE EFFECT?

    Gas in the atmosphere, such a water, carbon

    dioxide, methane, CFCs and nitrous oxide, absorb

    infrared light and would otherwise escape to space,

    radiating it back towards the planets surface.

    These gases are called greenhouse gases and they

    have a critical role in determining the temperature of

    the Earths surface and the living conditions on the

    planet.

    This natural process is called the greenhouse effect.

    3.Effect on Global Warming ?

    Earths surface to a new high of 14.57 degree centigrade.

    Rise in temperature was marked by unusually severeweather in many parts of the world.

    The irony of this global warming is that while it could reduce

    climatic changes by drying up rains.

    It could also raise sea levels with disastrous consequences

    for islands and low- level coastal areas.

    II.Impact on Arctic Ecosystem :-

    The ecosystem which sustains the livelihood of Arctic

    residents is melting the ice as temperature rise.

    The layer of permafrost is melting, causing an inland lake

    to drain into the ocean and killing fresh water fish.

    KYOTO

    PROTOCOL

    iii.Kyoto Protocol :-

    A un- brokered treaty was signed by in 1997 in Kyoto

    Japan. It was called the Kyoto Protocol.

    It commits the rich countries to binding cut in their

    emission of greenhouse gases, such as carbon dioxide.

    The developed countries agreed to cut their emissions

    by a collective average of 5 percent below their levels in

    1990 by 2008-2012.

    Representative Climate Conference (COPC) in Nov

    2000, and discussed about the implementation of the

    Kyoto Protocol.

    iv. Erratic Rain :-

    People around the world will experience climate

    changes and the erratic rainfall China to Africa will

    jeopardize the lives of many people.

    IT is now nearly a decade since the IPCC

    accepted that human activates were changing the

    worlds climate.

    The most severe warming is seen in the Arcticwere the ice pack is shrinking, and thinning,

    according to the US experts.

    v.More storms, foods, droughts,submergence of islands :-

    Scientists have warned that a warmer

    world will mean more storms, floods,droughts, and snowfalls.

    The countries that have to suffer most ifthe Hague talks fail are the small countries.

    Islands in danger of being submerged, from

    the Pacific to the Caribbean are panicky.

    vi. Ozone Getting Depleted :-

    Pollution from transport is the fastest growing source ofcarbon dioxide emissions since the industrial revolutions

    Carbon emission levels responsible for 70 percent of

    global warming vary widely among nations.

    Due to these emissions the ozone layer that provides a

    protective shield over the Earth from the harmful

    ultravoilent radiation is getting depleted.

    Another greenhouse gas, methane, has more than

    doubled.

    RESULT OF THIS, VERY HOT WEATHER LIKE

    THE SAME IN DESERT REGION OR MORE THAN

    vii.Major Climate Change :-

    If we do not act to reduce the emission of theseheat- trapping gases, it is predicted that global

    temperature could rise 2 degree to 6degree

    Fahrenheit in the next 100 yrs. Just a few degree

    difference in the global average temperature can

    mean a major climate change.

    The amt o greenhouse gases that are released

    could be controlled through prudent planning and

    implementation of environmental priorities. Man hasto act now to insure against the risk of destructive

    future warming by reducing the greenhouse gas

    emissions.
