Today's topic is global warming. Global warming is no longer just a buzzword; it has become a global concern. It's gradually increasing, and you'll find evidence of it in every season, whether it's summer, winter, or the rainy season. Global warming is a very prevalent issue these days. But if we don't think about this now, things will get much worse, and it will gradually ruin our weather patterns. Sometimes it feels like summer in winter, and sometimes it rains unexpectedly during the summer. Sometimes there are such severe floods during the rainy season. It seems that if we don't take this issue of global warming seriously, the future will be very bleak.
Do you understand what global warming means? Global warming doesn't just mean that today's temperature is higher, but rather that the entire system becomes imbalanced. When greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide and methane accumulate in excessive amounts in the atmosphere, the heat, instead of escaping into space, gets trapped within the Earth. This causes the Earth's temperature to rise. Do you understand what global warming means?

Global warming has a significant impact on agriculture, and this is a very serious issue, especially for countries like India, where a large part of the economy depends on farming. Rising temperatures disrupt the crop growth cycle. Lack of rainfall also causes significant problems. All of this leads to numerous disturbances in agriculture. Sometimes there are drought conditions, and sometimes excessive rainfall destroys crops. Farmers are already struggling with unpredictable weather patterns, and global warming exacerbates these problems, making their situation even more complex. Food security becomes a major concern because if production decreases, it becomes difficult to feed the entire population, and a food shortage could become a real risk in the future due to global warming.
And the rate at which we are cutting down trees and building structures in their place and constructing things where trees and plants used to grow is exacerbating the problem. This is because trees are the only things that help keep the world cool, and the speed at which we are cutting them down today has become a major problem. If we continue to cut down trees at this rate, there will come a day when global warming reaches its peak, because trees play a vital role in releasing oxygen, and their presence is absolutely essential. Currently, trees are being cut down to make way for malls and other buildings, which isn't necessarily wrong in itself, but building in areas that were once covered in trees means disrupting the oxygen balance of that area.
From a practical health perspective, the situation is getting much worse because if these weather changes continue, our bodies will deteriorate much faster. And in today's world, there's so much pollution and so many problems with food, plastic, and other things that contribute to heatstroke, dehydration, and heart attacks. Air pollution, caused by the burning of fossil fuels, not only increases the temperature but also degrades air quality, and poor air quality can lead to many diseases. This is becoming increasingly common today, but its greatest impact is on children, the elderly, and people with already compromised immune systems. Their bodies can't handle inhaling such toxic air. That's why they have to take so many precautions when leaving their homes.
So, you must have noticed one thing: people's lifespans are getting shorter. Previously, people easily lived to be a hundred or even older, but nowadays, this is becoming very difficult. This is happening because the weather and everything else are deteriorating, and this is greatly affecting people's lifestyles and health. People already have many unhealthy habits, and if our surrounding environment and the food we eat are also bad, then there will be many problems. Therefore, try to live as healthy a life as possible, eat good food, and drink clean water, because our bodies function because of water. Our bodies are 70% water, so water is very important. Drinking good water will keep everything in our bodies functioning properly.
