Abstract: Now a days climate change is the biggest problem of the human being. It is already happening and represents one of the greatest environmental, social and economic threats facing the planet. The warming of the climate system is unequal, as is now evident from observations of increases in global average air and ocean temperatures, widespread melting of snow and ice, and rising global mean sea level. Climate change, also called global warming, refers to the rise in average surface temperatures on Earth. An overwhelming scientific consensus maintains that climate change is due primarily to the human use of fossil fuels, which releases carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases into the air. The gases trap heat within the atmosphere, which can have a range of effects on ecosystems, including rising sea levels, severe weather events, and droughts that render landscapes more susceptible to wildfires. The main causes of climate change are Increase in CO2 concentration, Ozone depletion, Deforestation, Methane and Nitrous oxide emissions from agriculture, Aerosols present in the Atmosphere, Sunspots, Burning of Fossil Fuels and Increase in population. India also affected by climate change. Drougths, extreme heat, changing rainfall patterns, glacier melting, rising sea level and health related issues are faced by India due to climate change. Indian government sets new climate change targets in 2015. The government has pledged to reduce its greenhouse gas emissions intensity — the ratio between a country’s gross emissions to its gross domestic product at a particular point — by 33-35 per cent by 2030. For this, India has to ensure about 40 per cent of its electricity comes from non-fossil fuel sources. The government will launch new, more efficient and cleaner technologies in thermal power generation, reduction of emissions from the transportation sector, promotion of energy efficiency in industry, transportation, buildings and appliances, and reduction of emissions from waste.

Characterization and the Kinetics of drying at the drying oven and with micro...Open Access Research Paper
The objective of this work is to contribute to valorization de Nephelium lappaceum by the characterization of kinetics of drying of seeds of Nephelium lappaceum. The seeds were dehydrated until a constant mass respectively in a drying oven and a microwawe oven. The temperatures and the powers of drying are respectively: 50, 60 and 70°C and 140, 280 and 420 W. The results show that the curves of drying of seeds of Nephelium lappaceum do not present a phase of constant kinetics. The coefficients of diffusion vary between 2.09.10-8 to 2.98. 10-8m-2/s in the interval of 50°C at 70°C and between 4.83×10-07 at 9.04×10-07 m-8/s for the powers going of 140 W with 420 W the relation between Arrhenius and a value of energy of activation of 16.49 kJ. mol-1 expressed the effect of the temperature on effective diffusivity.

UNDERSTANDING WHAT GREEN WASHING IS!.pdfJulietMogola
Many companies today use green washing to lure the public into thinking they are conserving the environment but in real sense they are doing more harm. There have been such several cases from very big companies here in Kenya and also globally. This ranges from various sectors from manufacturing and goes to consumer products. Educating people on greenwashing will enable people to make better choices based on their analysis and not on what they see on marketing sites.
"Understanding the Carbon Cycle: Processes, Human Impacts, and Strategies for...MMariSelvam4
The carbon cycle is a critical component of Earth's environmental system, governing the movement and transformation of carbon through various reservoirs, including the atmosphere, oceans, soil, and living organisms. This complex cycle involves several key processes such as photosynthesis, respiration, decomposition, and carbon sequestration, each contributing to the regulation of carbon levels on the planet.
Human activities, particularly fossil fuel combustion and deforestation, have significantly altered the natural carbon cycle, leading to increased atmospheric carbon dioxide concentrations and driving climate change. Understanding the intricacies of the carbon cycle is essential for assessing the impacts of these changes and developing effective mitigation strategies.
By studying the carbon cycle, scientists can identify carbon sources and sinks, measure carbon fluxes, and predict future trends. This knowledge is crucial for crafting policies aimed at reducing carbon emissions, enhancing carbon storage, and promoting sustainable practices. The carbon cycle's interplay with climate systems, ecosystems, and human activities underscores its importance in maintaining a stable and healthy planet.
In-depth exploration of the carbon cycle reveals the delicate balance required to sustain life and the urgent need to address anthropogenic influences. Through research, education, and policy, we can work towards restoring equilibrium in the carbon cycle and ensuring a sustainable future for generations to come.
2. Global warming has become perhaps the
most complicated issue facing world
nowadays….
3. GLOBAL WARMING
Global Warming is the increase of Earth's
average surface temperature due to effect
of greenhouse gases, such as carbon
dioxide emissions from burning fossil
fuels or from deforestation, which trap
heat that would otherwise escape from
Earth.
4. WHAT IS GREENHOUSE?
Greenhouses are special building usually
made from glass and steel which is used
to grow plants that need humidity,
tropical temperature and constant
growing conditions.
5. THE GREENHOUSE EFFECT
When the sun rays enter the earth’s atmosphere which is
made up of several layers of gases and reach the planet
earth, the earth’s surface land, water and biosphere absorb
the solar energy, once absorbed, this energy gets recycle
into atmosphere.
6. CAUSES OF GLOBAL WARMING
Electrical Pollution
Garbage
Increasing population
Deforestation
Burning of fossil fuels
7. Methane from rice paddies and
mining operation
Nitrous oxide from fertilizers and
other chemicals.
Rapid increase of CO2
8. IMPACTS OF GLOBAL WARMING
Accelerating sea level rise & increased
coastal flooding.
Longer and more damaging wildlife
seasons.
More frequent and intense heat waves.
Widespread forest health in the rocky
mountain.
9. Costly and growing health impact.
An increase in extreme weather events.
Reduced rainfall due to deforestation.
Increased in hurricanes
Polar ice cap melting.
10. A change in global or regional climate
patterns, in particular a change apparent
from the mid to late 20th century onwards
and attributed largely to the increased
levels of atmospheric carbon dioxide
produced by the use of fossil fuels.
CLIMATE CHANGE
11. CONSEQUENCES
The consequences of climate change are enormous. Scarce natural
resources such as drinking water are likely to become even more
limited. Many crops and some livestock are unlikely to survive in
certain locations if conditions become too hot and dry, or too cold
and wet. Food security, already a significant concern, will become
even more challenging.(Source-UNHCR,2013)
CONCLUSION
As a result people will have to try and adapt to this situation, but for
many this will mean a conscious move to another place to survive.
Such moves, or the adverse effects that climate change may have on
natural resources, may spark conflict with other communities, as an
increasing number of people compete for a decreasing amount of
resources. (Source-UNHCR,2013)
13. Global Warming Emissions by Economic Sector
(Source: IPCC Fourth Assessment Report: Climate Change 2007, Working Group III: Mitigation of
Climate Change, Chapter 1. This is a snapshot of emissions in 2004)
14. A carbon footprint is defined as the total amount of
greenhouse gases produced to directly and indirectly support
human activities, usually expressed in equivalent tons of
carbon dioxide (CO2).
Your carbon footprint is the sum of all emissions of CO2
(carbon dioxide), which were induced by your activities in
a given time frame. Usually a carbon footprint is calculated
for the time period of a year.

16. Environmental refugees are those people who have been
forced to leave their traditional habitat, temporarily or
permanently, because of a marked environmental
disruption (natural or triggered by people) that
jeopardized their existence or seriously affected the
quality of their life.” – Source United Nations Environment Programme(UNEP)
ENVIORNMENTAL REFUGEE
17. Green social work is a form of holistic professional social
work practice that focuses on the-
Interdependencies amongst people.
The social organisation of relationships between people
and the flora and fauna in their physical habitats.
The interactions between socio-economic and physical
environmental crises and interpersonal behaviours that
undermine the well-being of human beings and planet
earth.
(Lena Dominelli, 2012)
GREEN SOCIAL WORK
18. IMPLICATIONS OF SOCIAL WORKER
Social worker can actively play a part in
raising environmental awareness and
promoting sustainable development.
Social workers, advocating to change
public policies that will have major impact
on the future.
Organizing workshops with the children’s
in the schools on recycling as well as reuse.
19. Collaboration with the different
organizations working on protection of
the environment.
Act as an educator to the nearby
surroundings by making them aware
about the pros & cons of dumping the
garbage etc properly.
Promoting the concepts of green social
work among the social work students.
20. GLOBAL WARMING & MDG
Climate change presents significant threats to
the achievement of the Millennium
Development Goals (MDGs) especially those
related to eliminating poverty, hunger and
promoting environmental sustainability.
Climate change is expected to increase the
frequency and intensity of severe weather
events. Poor countries lack the infrastructure
necessary (e.g. storm walls, water storage) to
respond adequately to such events. As a
consequence, diseases such as malaria are
likely to expand in range, impacting more
people in the poorest regions of poor nations
that are already most affected by such
diseases, hunger and promoting
environmental sustainability.
21. PROGRAM AND POLICY
National Action Plan on Climate Change
On June 30, 2008, Prime Minister Manmohan Singh
released India’s first National Action Plan on
Climate Change (NAPCC) outlining existing and
future policies and programs addressing climate
mitigation and adaptation. The plan identifies eight
core “national missions” running through 2017 and
directs ministries to submit detailed implementation
plans to the Prime Minister’s Council on Climate
Change by December 2008.
