Synopsis

Mankind is in need of an equitable standard of living involving adequate food, water, energy, safe shelter and a healthy environment for present as well as future generations. However, the casual acts of human race, such as emission of greenhouse gases by burning fossil fuels and deforestation has increased the earth’s average surface temperature. The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change’s (IPCC) major report on the science of climate change, predicts that global temperatures will rise by 2°C - 4.5°C by 2100. Increasing global temperatures cause broad, profound changes in the Earth’s climate, which results in damage to earth’s water resources and agricultural yields. Today, most environmental initiatives have recognized that climate change is an important issue on a global scale. Hence the climate change studies can prove to be a masterstroke in pushing for proper planning, management and for developing adaptation strategies to face the varying climate.
