Some Inconvenient Truths…
Mumbai’s Nariman Point will be submerged by Year 2020
40% of Himalayan glaciers would vanish by Year 2035
50 million people in coastal belt will be displaced by year 2100
Earth’s temperature rise
In the year 1905- the average temperature of planet is 140 C has increased 2.5% an unusual rapid increase rate of 0.350C.
Over the last 25 years, from 1970 to 2005, it went up to 4% (or 0.55oC).
total increase in global average temperature represents a rise of 5.4% (or 0.74oC) since 1750.
The key point is that especially since 1990, is that of a consistent, increasingly and unusually rapid, increase in global average temperatures.
IPCC Report states ..
Global warming is now Clear that human activity “very likely” has been the primary cause of rising temperatures worldwide since 1950.
The report summary also says that global warming is likely to continue for centuries, and that it is already too late to stop some of the serious consequences it will bring—even if mankind could somehow hold the line on greenhouse gas emissions worldwide starting from today.
