Upcoming Conference :Global warming due to uncontrolled emission of anthropogenic greenhouse gases in the atmosphere since the beginning of industrial age and more specifically since the nineties, and the resultant changes in global climate have posed the most severe challenges to sustainable development of the world. The average surface temperature of the world has increased by almost 1.5 C during the past 150 years. The polar, high mountains and oceans have faced higher rise in temperature resulting in glacial melts, sea level rise, changes in precipitation patterns and thermal expansion of the oceans. The cumulative impacts of these changes have adversely impacted agriculture, food and nutrition security, safe water availability, forests and bio diversity, human settlements and global burden of diseases.
