    Ahmedabad: Scientists claim regarding heat, if the amount of carbon dioxide does not decrease, the temperature will cross 50 degrees!

    People in Hole have to bear the scorching heat. Scientists estimate that the amount of carbon dioxide in the air is increasing at an alarming level. Due to which the heat is increasing day by day. Scientists believe that if this situation continues, the temperature will be more than 50 degrees in the coming days. The outbreak of heat wave has been increasing in the state for a long time. After studying the reasons behind the increase in heat, it was found that if sunspots increase in the Sun, then the amount of heat increases. There has been no increase in sunspots in the past decade or two. So sunspots are not responsible for the increased heat. The amount of carbon dioxide in the air is increasing at an alarming rate. If the situation remains the same in the coming days, it will be the turn of the people to bear the scorching heat.

    The amount of carbon dioxide has doubled in the last 60 years

    According to Dr. Rajmal Jain, a former scientist at the Physical Resources Laboratory and a member of Greenfaith, the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere is increasing due to the smoke coming out of the fuel of vehicles and the smoke coming out of industrial factories. Coal used to generate electricity in thermal power has also increased the amount of carbon dioxide.

    Compared to the year 1960, the amount of carbon dioxide has increased by one and a half to two times in the year 2022.

    Due to the change in the amount of water vapor in the sea water, the greenhouse gas, methane gas along with nitrous oxide is increasing. The amount of carbon dioxide in the air has increased significantly over the past 60 years. Compared to the year 1960, the amount of carbon dioxide has increased by one and a half to two times in the year 2022. The amount of carbon dioxide in the air is in millions of tons. Due to which the heat is increasing day by day. Natural calamities like earthquakes, landslides are happening because of these reasons.

    Collective effort is needed to reduce carbon dioxide emissions

    Significantly, marine organisms including fish are capable of absorbing carbon dioxide. Trees also absorb carbon dioxide and release oxygen. But marine life is being destroyed. Trees are being cut indiscriminately. Due to which the amount of carbon dioxide in the air is increasing. According to former PRL scientist Dr. Rajmal, if the amount of carbon dioxide continues to increase in this way, then the day is not far when the temperature will exceed 50 degrees. In view of this, collective efforts to reduce the amount of carbon dioxide in the air become necessary.
