Top Environment Current News

Date:

Climatic change has been affecting the whole world and there are many reasons for it, one of the major factors for this is global warming. The climate of this world is getting hotter and everything is being affected by this like the glacier melting, floods, draughts, and many more. Here is the top current environment news.

Bad breath of India

According to environment current news, over 99% of Indians are inhaling air exceeding the World Health Organisation. This was recorded in a report by Greenpeace India. And keeping in mind the facts, pregnant women, infants, and older people are more vulnerable when they are exposed to toxic air. because the people of India are exposed to PM2.5.

PM2.5 means small particles that go inside the lungs and then destroying the respiratory tract and lungs. While this happens, the risk of breathing problems increases, and there will be a weak immune system, which will further welcome new diseases. The papers said that the government of India must introduce a new way of air quality monitoring system which will be set across the whole country and should make the data of that system publicly available.

And according to another report on environment current news, the red alert for bad air and health advisory should be released so that the common people can know their condition and take necessary action to protect their health and the polluters of toxic gases can reduce their emissions. This will help to save the environment. And the report also said that the national ambient air quality standards (NAAQS) are currently insufficient and need immense revision.

The board of central pollution control should revise the national ambient air quality standards based on scientific evidence. And the government should take the initiative to ensure full implementation of all the planned activities of the National Clean Air Programme. And there is also an urgent need to make it stronger, comprehensive, and transparent. 

According to a reporter that people are already suffering by paying a huge price for air pollution, and because of this the number in healthcare system is rising rapidly. And people don’t have any oftion other that breathing this polluted air and therefore facing health crisis. The officials now don’t have any time to delay any action.

News of the next century

According to the environment current news, millions of people could be exposed to heat waves for half a year by 2100. This will happen even if humanity manages to meet the climate requirements, according to the reporters. Most of the steps taken by humanity indicate that they will miss the targets. This has the potential to affect all the people living in the tropical area, and on most days in this area, there will be high temperatures.

And they have already started People have already started to experience severe heat waves, which are a threat to crops, wildlife, and humans. Recently, England experienced a heatwave and they had to lock down everything. It also affected the infrastructure of the whole country. Most projections of climatic change predict there will be a rise in the temperature, and these projections are based on different policy scenarios, so it is confirmed that the temperature will rise, but we don’t know by which pathway.

The researcher uses a heat index where there are markings. The temperature above 39.4C is marked as dangerous, and the temperature above 51C is marked as extremely dangerous.
According to some reporters, by the end of the century, people in the tropics will start experiencing immense temperatures, and this can be cured if the emissions are severely curtailed. And Sub-Saharan Africa and India are particularly vulnerable.

The new US law to reduce CO2 emissions

President Joe Biden signed a clean energy incentive, which will be their new spending package. This was signed a few weeks ago. According to a new department of energy analysis, this incentive aims to reduce teat-tapping gas emissions in America by 1.1 billion tonnes by 2030. According to the official federal calculation, with the bill that was just signed and infrastructure spending law of previous year, the United States of America will start producing less CO2 by 1.26 billion tonnes and this figure will be there without the laws. That saving is almost equivalent to the yearly greenhouse gases emitted by every house in the United States.

According to the Energy Department’s analysis, with this new law in place by 2030, the United States’ greenhouse gas emissions will be less by forty percentage than what it was in the year 2005. But it is not up to the mark of lowering carbon dioxide pollution. This is it because the US government planned to cut down carbon pollution by 50% but they only managed 40%. However, just an effort to make a change counts, and this step is more than just an effort. But the cutting of 40% was already predicted by Rhodium Group earlier, they figured it would cut the carbon pollution by 31%-40%, and the researchers of Climate Action Taker also predicted this figure earlies they predicted the number between 26%-40%.

According to what the federal analysis said most of the spending on the projected emission reduction is taken over by the promotion of clean energy. And clean energy mostly consists of natural energy like wind and solar and the vehicles run with the help of electricity. However many private companies have already started mass producing electric vehicles and many people have already bought those eco-friendly vehicles. And agriculture and land conservation would contribute to 10% of the savings.

In the end, it comes to us humans to play the most important role in saving the environment, as the climatic changes that happened because of us are affecting every living thing in the whole world. We can take examples from history. Whenever the climate changed considerably, it was we humans who got affected and had to change our lifestyles, like in the stone age, the ice age, etc. So it is the right time to take a step toward renewable and sustainable energy forms.
