Global warming is caused because of green house gases emitted by GROWTH promoting industries and developments. So should we stop GROWTH? Is it possible?
No......answer lies not in stopping the growth... but using Natural Resources judiciously in development and researching new energy resources.
The present situation is caused by Technical Reasons and it has to be solved technically only... This realization puts responsibility on the Corporate/Companies to come forward and promote Green Eco-friendly developments.
