It’s Raining Man

/ Guttu / 2 Comments

It is raining heavily here. There is a flood like situation from the morning. There was a long break taken by the rain god and now he is fresh and working heavily. Rains almost disappeared till last 7-8 days. It has been raining moderately till today. I was happy to see the rains back as it cools down everything and brings life into things.

The alarm has been sounded three times since morning. This year there are some precautionary measures being taken in order to fight the floods. There are lifeboats standing in nearby police station. The alarm is also a new introduction in the system. Although to the best of my knowledge there was no information given about the use of alarms. There are many who will be unaware of it’s use.

Yesterday coming from my site there was rain. Due to the rain throughout the day there was beatiful climate. It was cool and soothing. I usually listen to music on my N72 when there is no friend to talk with in the bus. Some beautiful songs were being played and I flowed away into them. Then I thought of getting wet in the rain. Just when the bus stopped I walked out without opening my umbrella. Wowwwww!! I was feeling the rains. With the music still playing and my phone too enjoying the rain I walked towards my home.

But it Rained

For last 2-3 days its raining here. Its pretty strange because it is supposed to be end of May and in the month of June. Rains start around that time. Pretty much for sure its due to the global warming. For the last 3-4 years I’ve seen strange climatic changes.

Rains are not coming at normal. When rains come they are very heavy. Everything gets affected by them. Though rains doesn’t last for the interval they should, they complete the average rainfall here. Hence we face the October heat which is difficult to bare.

Then the winter is very cold. Last month it broke the minimum temperature record. I experienced the coldest day in my life. The dew is affecting cashew and mango plantation which are very important. This wasn’t like this.

Summer is hot. Very hot to be precise. You cannot feel the fans at high speeds. AC’s are good in office and house, but once you are out then you’ll be unable to bare the thing outside. So better to be with fans. Afternoons are very hot. Don’t get out at that time.

So why this is happening?? As i said due to Global Warming. High use of fossil fuels and hydrocarbons is creating Greenhouse effect. Its strange that the Global Warming may lead to harsh winters and something like ice age. But not ice age. Or may be. I’m not sure. There is a good article on this topic here.
Will global warming lead to an ‘ice age’
If you have patience to read then read it. A nice article. If its going to be an ice age be prepared. I’m ready for a snowfall here 😀

But guys we need to really think about this. For last few years Tsunamis, tornado’s, Earthquakes, cyclones, floods have increased and are taking thousands of lives. This is due to Global Warming. So what can you do to prevent it. Not something which is very hard to do.

1) Stop using plastics. Or use it reduce its usage. Alternatively don’t forget the Carry Bag.
2) Use Environment friendly fuel. Unleaded petrol, diesel, CNG, Solar power.
3) If possible use a bus or train as much as you can. This will save some money for you also.
4) And follow three R’s

3 r's

5) Don’t keep the lights, AC’s On when not in use.
6) Use daylight as much as you can. Consult a good Architect before planning a house.
7) Remember energy you save can be used elsewhere. The use of fossils to produce energy will reduce.

There may be much more, but I think these are very simple things. if you are reading this line means you probably read the whole post. Thanks for reading and now try to follow. Make it a better place to live.

Think Nonsense…
