It is believed that carbon emission affect environment and
that climate-change or global warming is attributed to it. The Internet has also been the target of producing as much
as or more carbon dioxide than any other process in the world. So, for anybody
who wants to measure how much CO2 is produced of living then this App,
Climatefriendly.com is there. You can
measure your carbon emissions for personal, business or corporate level and
take action too. The CO2 from air travel, vehicle, electricity usages, and
public transport , all can be measured country wise here. Although I’m not
selling this app, it can be a handy
tool.
Extreme Weather conditions, the summer getting hotter and
winter even more chilling, or harsh heat waves in some part of world and
torrential rain or flash floods in other,
are believed to be caused by
green house gases(SO2, NO2, CO2, and
particles). You might say, are there any human interference?
By the way, there are various measures that have
been taken to mitigate this. We may be using energy efficient appliances,
standard electric appliances(as specified
on it), solar apparatus or electricity from renewable energy sources and pine
needles. Recycle and reuse, reduction of wastage, and power cuts , which are just
not enough yet!, otherwise climate change and other problems couldn't exist.
The natural air-conditioners or trees are the best way to
counter the climate change. May be, urbanization and industrialization have
added to climate change more than what the natural air-conditioners can compensate
for. The use of “green fuels”- fuel from
bio sources, sugar and hydrogen that reduces GHGs– which may be available soon(according
to some news), which can be sustainable or not is not a question here.
The other way is to use “The Artificial Trees”(which might
be a novel approach). The artificial trees might be more
than just purifying the air; it can produce power form solar energy and reduce
climatic changes in the atmosphere. These also can be used within
a city in a decorative way.
The newer way of
dealing with climate change or global warming as described above and that are
already in use might counter the effect of climate
change.
