INTRODUCTION

1.1 Object of The Research

Study
One of the best things about conducting project is that one
can learn concept / ideas a multiple ways ,through reading
, hearing , picturing concept in mind , touching and even
manipulating objects .Those are the essential moralities of
learning .Demonstration of previous knowledge is
possible by applying Classroom concept to a real
project.

Why to conduct this research ?

Day by day the global climate was change in India.
The changes of climate are very harmful to every human
beings in the world. So I was select the topic of Indian
Climate Change & in their topic we find the problem of
changes, causes ,solution and the proper way of
conclusion of the research .

1.2 Selection of The Topic

For The Study
Topic selection is the one of the important aspects of
the project. It decides the courses of action to be
followed . The topic selection should be such that it helps
in understanding the problem ,causes and important of the
global climate change .
Selection of topic should be of social interest . Hence this
topic was much more vital as lot of changing for the
global climate .Day by day climate was change and the
effect of climate changes is very difficult to the world .
So we select this topic to study of why climate was
change in the world and its importance .

*Problem of climate change *

1. Pollution:
Pollution of air, water and soil require millions of
years to recoup. Industry and motor vehicle exhaust
are the number one pollutants. Heavy metals, nitrates
and plastic are toxins responsible for pollution.
While water pollution is caused by oil spill, acid
rain, urban runoff; air pollution is caused by various
gases and toxins released by industries and factories
and combustion of fossil fuels; soil pollution is
majorly caused by industrial waste that deprives soil
from essential nutrients.

2. Climate Change:
Climate change is yet another environmental
problem that has surfaced in last couple of decades.
It occurs due to rise in global warming which occurs
due to increase in temperature of atmosphere by
burning of fossil fuels and release of harmful gases
by industries. Climate change has various harmful
effects but not limited to melting of polar ice, change
in seasons, occurrence of new diseases, frequent
occurrence of floods and change in overall weather
scenario.

3. Over population:
The population of the planet is reaching
unsustainable levels as it faces shortage of resources
like water, fuel and food. Population explosion in
less developed and developing countries is straining
the already scarce resources. Intensive agriculture
practiced to produce food damages the environment
through use of chemical fertilizer, pesticides and
insecticides. Overpopulation is one of the crucial
current environmental problem.

*Causes of Climate Change *

The earths climate is dynamic and always changing
through a natural cycle .There are two types of causes
which are as follows :Types of causes :
1)Natural Cause:There are a number of natural factors responsible for
climate change . Some factors are very harmful for the
nature for ex.:a) Drought
b)Earthquake
c) Overpopulation
d)Pollution
e) Ocean Current
f) Volcanoes .

2) Human Causes :Climate change can also be caused by human

activities, such as the burning of fossil fuels and the
conversion of land for forestry and agriculture. Since
the beginning of the Industrial Revolution, these
human influences on the climate system have
increased substantially. Consumerism has increased
by leaps and bounds, creating mountains of waste.
Also, our population has increased to an incredible
extent. Following is the human factors are
responsible for climate change :
a) Construction
b) Industries
c) Transport
d) Consumption
e) Tree cutting

1.3 Objective of The Study

The objectives of the study are as follows:

* To study for changing climate in India.

* To identify the problem of climate change
* To find out the solution of the problem of
changing climate
*To study of the importance of climate change
*To find out the effect of climate change
* To get a proper conclusion .

1.4 Research Methodology

A) Definition :
According to Robert Bourn.
Research is a systematic investigation to finding a solution
of the problem .

Research is a process of gain a new knowledge .

Research is a logical and systematic search for new and

useful information on a particular topic.

B. Types of Research :
QUANTITATIVE RESEARCH
This research is based on numeric figures or numbers. Quantitative
research aim to measure the quantity or amount and compares it with
past records and tries to project for future period. In social sciences,
quantitative research refers to the systematic empirical investigation of
quantitative properties and phenomena and their relationships.

APPLIED RESEARCH
Applied research is designed to solve practical problem of the modern world,
rather than to acquire knowledge for knowledges sake. The goal of applied
research is to improve the human condition. It focus on analysis and solving social
and real life problems.

QUALITATIVE RESEARCH
Qualitative research presents non-quantitative type of analysis. Qualitative research
is collecting, analyzing and interpreting data by observing what people do and say.
Qualitative research refers to the meanings, definitions, characteristics, symbols,
metaphors, and description of things. Qualitative research is much more subjective
and uses very different methods of collecting information, mainly individual, indepth interviews and focus groups.

Global climate change is seriously affected the ecosystem .
Difficult to convenes the people about global climate
change .
Difficult to reduce global climate change and increase the
agricultural area .
Difficult to control all types of diseases which is created
from global climate change .
Difficult to reduce the all types of pollution.
Difficult to increases green house gases .

1.6 Rational of The Study

Rational of study refers to the worth and utility of the
study from the future point of view. The project gives
the live experience of the various aspect that is helpful
for future .The project provide the opportunity to
understand the concept of global climate change , its
impact and limitation. It creates the awareness among
the people.
Natural environment on earth is gradually destroyed by
human beings because some one fells trees and catches
wild animals at ones own will. Air pollution also brings
about many problems, such as ozone level of the earth
being destroyed ,filling of sour rain the earth seens to
carry for harm of human beings . Water pollution from

goal course and garbages effect to quality of water

deeply .These global climate change above look like
killers to harms our health step by step.

Chapter II
Conceptual Discussion
About The Topic

2.1 -

Topic Under Study

Climate changea term used to describe trends in the

earth's climate. For example, Scientists see that the
planet's average temperature is rising. This affects wind
and ocean currents as well as yearly amounts of rain and
Snow. Climate change affects different parts of the world
in different ways.
Global warmingrefers to the general increase in the
earth's average temperature, which causes changes in
climate patterns across the globe. The earth's average
temperature has been increasing over the last century.
Greenhouse gasesare carbon dioxide and methane,
mostly caused by human activity. Greenhouse gases are in
the atmosphere, absorbing and holding heat, which causes
earth's temperature to rise.

2.2 Various Case

Indian Impact
Climate change will make monsoons unpredictable.
As a result, rain-fed wheat cultivation in South Asia will
suffer in a big way. Total cereal production will go down.
The crop yield per hectare will be hit badly, causing food
insecurity and loss of livelihood.
The rising levels of the sea in the coastal areas will
damage nursery areas for fisheries, causing coastal
erosion and flooding.
The Arctic regions, Sub-Saharan Africa, small islands
and Asian mega deltas, including the Ganga and
Brahmaputra, will be affected most.
Worse still, Pachauri said, total agricultural land will
shrink and the available land may not remain suitable for
the present crops for too long.
The report also predicts huge coastal erosion due to a
rise in sea levels of about 40 cm resulting from faster
melting of glaciers in the Himalayan and Hindukush
ranges. It can affect half-a-million people in India because
of excessive flooding in coastal areas and also can

increase the salinity of ground water in the Sunderbans

and surface water in coastal areas.
Indian Stand
India has been arguing at all climate negotiations that
though it is among the top 10 emitters of carbon dioxide,
the per capita emission is still one-sixth of the global
average. Further, it has managed an 8 per cent growth
with only a 3.7 per cent growth in energy consumption.
India may oppose any move to seek its commitment
to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and will ask the
developed world to transfer Intellectual Property Rights
with the clean technologies.
The Indian Constitution on a sensitive provision in
Article 48-A states, "The State shall endeavour to protect
and improve the environment and to safeguard the forests
and wildlife of the country." This is a fundamental
obligation of the state since its violation has fatal
implications.
India needs to chart out a roadmap for itself in the
light of the report on climate change. Climate change can
be mitigated in many ways, such as improving the
efficiency of energy - intensive devices, vehicles and
buildings, all of which involve direct and indirect gas

Chapter III
Analysis of the Data

3.1 Presentation of Information

on Climate Change

Climate change is considered one of the most important environmental issues of

our time. This concern reflects the reality that so much of human activity is
sensitive to climate change, and that adapting to current and projected rates of
climate change could be very challenging. It also reflects the understanding that
human perturbation of the climate system is essentially irreversible, for many
centuries at least. How much climate change future generations are exposed to
will be determined by the actions that we take over the coming decades to reduce
human impacts on the climate system.
There is a very strong body of evidence, based on a wide range of indicators, that
climate change is occurring, and the climate system is warming. The evidence
includes observed increases in global average air and ocean temperatures,
widespread melting of snow and ice, and rising global sea level (in response to
the addition of water from melting snow and ice and the expansion of water
when warmed). Plants and animals are responding to climate change in ways that
are consistent with the observed warming with repercussions throughout natural
and managed environments.
Although climate change can be caused by both natural processes and human
activities, the recent warming has been largely attributed to human activity,
primarily the release of carbon dioxide and other greenhouse gases to the
atmosphere. These gases enhance the insulating properties of the atmosphere,
reducing heat loss, thereby warming the planet. Continued emission of these
gases is the primary cause for concern about climate change now and into the
immediate future. Particularly important is the emission of carbon dioxide,
which is released through the combustion of carbon-based fossil fuels. In
Canada, over 80 % of total national greenhouse gas emissions are associated
with the production or consumption of fossil fuels for energy purposes.

As carbon dioxide stays in the atmosphere for a long time, levels of carbon
dioxide continue to build-up in the atmosphere with ongoing human emissions.
Even with human emissions eliminated, atmospheric levels of carbon dioxide
would fall very gradually as natural processes slowly remove carbon dioxide
from the atmosphere. This means that past emissions from human activity
continue to affect the climate system for a very long time.
The potential impacts of climate change are far-reaching, affecting our economy,
infrastructure, and health, the landscapes around us, and the wildlife that inhabit
them. More specific impacts are discussed in recent reports from Natural
Resources Canada and Health Canada.

Suggestion

Recommendation & Suggestion

It is recomndation that children's are must be education to
avoide pllution.Peoples should do awareness programs in
the society to make awaerness among themin respect of
environment .Now a days this awaereness work should be
concerned as to more people will take active particiaption
in this awaerness program .

4.1 Conclusion of The Study

After the successful desk research on global climate
change, we are hereby found that human being is adversely
responsible for the global climate change .Government hasn't
tight control over industries which makes pollution in the
environment. Peoples are uneducated from the global climate
changes, their impacts and the effects on human life.

The Conclusion confirms that global warming is the major challenge for our global society. There is very little doubt that global
warming will change our climate in the next century. So what are the solutions to global warming? First, there must be an
international political solution. Second, funding for developing cheap and clean energy production must be increased, as all
economic development is based on increasing energy usage. We must not pin all our hopes on global politics and clean energy
technology, so we must prepare for the worst and adapt. If implemented now, a lot of the costs and damage that could be caused by
changing climate can be mitigated.
