Finally, there is
a good news for the environmentalists. Before the forthcoming talks on climate
change in Paris, the US has most ambitious plans to reduce carbon emissions by
32% by 2030. USA is one of the lost industrialized countries in the world and
the largest greenhouse gas emitting nation.
Carbon dioxide is
one of the important greenhouse gas and it is produced while burning coal or
gas. Thermal power plants use fussil fuel such as coal or gas to generate electricity.
In recent years, China and India contribute significantly to the global warming
through industrialization and emission of carbon dioxide.
The movement
worldwide against global warming is looking at USA to lead from the front by
reducing its greenhouse gas emissions. President Obama’s plans to reduce emissions
by 32% by 2030 is praiseworthy. Before the actual climate change talks in
Paris, let us wish that the country prepone the deadline for the reduction by 5
years.
One of the serious
repercussions of global warming is increase in the sea level and submerging of low-lying
coastal areas around the globe. Controlling global warming at this stage is a
challenging task to succeed.
The least we all
can do is to stop right away the use of fussil fuel for industrial
applications. Let us go to cleaner energy sources like wind, solar or nuclear.
