There are clear indication that our planet is getting warmer day by day. The huge mass of ice gathering in the North Pole and South Pole has sarted melting. There have been cases where damage and destruction of marine life has been confirmed due to the rising temperature of sea waters. The Gangotri Glacier which is the main source of water for the Ganges is reported to have been fast diminishing over the last few years. Rainfall recorded in different parts of the globe has been quite erratic and irregular. These are some of the signs and symptoms confirming the earth's growing temperature. The reasons for the planet getting warmer are many. The major reasons for this global warming are the large scale of deforestation, use or consumption of fossil fuels for transport and cooking purpose, excessive and indiscriminate use of chemical fertilizers, pesticides and insecticides in Cultivation.
