Protecting our planet from pollution is the talk of the day, problem of the time. In one end we we are concerned about polluting the planet, on the other end we continue polluting blaming each other. Let us not just talk, rather do something concrete to live in Green.

In a greenhouse, the air inside gets heated because of the warm sun rays that get trapped by the roof and walls are not reflected outwards completely. This situation is now comparable to the conditions currently prevailing on earth. The layer of the atmosphere, which acts like greenhouse glass roof, contains greenhouse gasses GHG, such as water vapor, carbon dioxide CO2, methane, nitrous oxide, and ozone, in appropriate amounts to keep our earth comfortably warm. Owing to irresponsible human activities, the CO2 & methane content have increased more than 20 & 90% respectively. As a result more heat is trapped and making the earth warmer than usual. The increased temperature causing the polar caps and glaciers melt, leading to the rise in sea levels causing unwanted floods and tidal bores.

I et drivhus, luften inde bliver opvarmet på grund af de varme sol stråler, der bliver fanget af tag og vægge er ikke afspejlet udad helt. Denne situation kan nu sammenlignes med de forhold, der i øjeblikket hersker på jorden. Lag af atmosfæren, der fungerer som drivhus glastag, indeholder drivhusgasser DHG, som vanddamp, kuldioxid CO2, metan, lattergas og ozon, i passende mængder til at holde vores jorden behagelig varm. På grund af uansvarlig menneskelige aktiviteter, er CO2- & metan indhold steget mere end 20 & 90% henholdsvis. Som et resultat, mere varme er fanget og gøre jorden varmere end normalt. Øget temperatur forårsager polar caps og Gletsjere smelter, fører til stigende vandstand i havene forårsager uønskede oversvømmelser og tidevandsenergi bores.
