Global warming is no longer a scientific myth. Nor is climate--change an unknown phrase used only by a small group of western experts. You oepn the day's newspaper and your roving eyes are arrested by news of heads of states struggling to forge an agreement on ways to fight climate-change. You turn the page and you stumble on articles proclaiming the dangers that threaten us all because of changes in the earth's temperature. The struggling heads of states may very well include our own head of state and the newspaper articles on the dangers of climate change may well be by our own journalists or our own scientists. The fact is that people all over the world are talking about climate change. You hear your next-door neighbour complain about summer getting longer, winter getting shorter, the cycle of seasons getting erratic. You go to your college or your university and you find yourself listening to your teacher gloomily telling you that the earth has become much hotter than it was half a century ago, that the huge ice-caps at the north and south poles are dwindling fast, that the Himalayan glaciers are melting at an alarming rate and worst of all, one-fourth of Bangladesh is doomed to go under water, may be in another thirty years. This is the penalty of our own sin: we have polluted our air and our water and we have destroyed our forests. Can you disagree with him?
