Let Climate Justice Prevail

Globally pervasive temperature rise is a burning issue that has put the earth’s environmental health at stake. This has emerged as a major global challenge for the 21st century and further ahead. The catastrophic effects of global warming are already visible in the form of unpredictable weather patterns, long-term climate change and their consequential adverse repercussions on human health, agriculture, livelihood, biological diversity and economy. Scientists have pointed out that this phenomenon is human made. And there is an agreement that human actions are needed to reverse this dangerous trend. Collective measures can make a positive impact to fight this challenge but enough efforts are not being put into action. Greenhouse gas emissions continue without major cuts in the burning of polluting fossil fuels, adding fuel to the fire.
