Global warming- Is India effected?

Contrary to the common notion that India is a small contributor to the worldwide phenomenon-global warming, we found out that we too are effecting and affected by global warming.


University of California based climate scientist Dr V Ramanathan said " Its getting darker and darker for India, as the sunlight is going down and the blanket of haze is growing thicker over the Indo-gangetic plains which might result in reduction of rainfall during the monsoons.

Professor Schrag said India was among the five countries, which account for 75 percent of coal usage in the world.

He also adds that " there will be a dramatic change in 10 years."

Both scientist claimed that the global warming impact on the environment is real.
