This document discusses various facts about our universe, solar system, and planet Earth. It notes that the universe is around 13.78 billion years old and contains at least 100 billion stars. It also describes our sun as accounting for 99.86% of the mass in our solar system, and notes that 90% of stars are smaller than our sun. Additionally, the document discusses the significance of human-caused climate change and its effects on factors like temperature, sea levels, and forest cover reduction.

• How precious and special our planet Earth is? • How big is our universe? • How big is our own sun ? • How Cool is our Earth? • When was the Farthest photo of earth taken ? • Ever heard of Pale blue dot? Have you ever wondered…..?!
Observable Universe.. How old are we? ~13.78 Billion years old !
How many of these? At least 100 billion+
How many stars in there? 200 to 400 billion stars What do we see in here?? That’s our very own milky way seen from earth!
Our position 27 000 Ly from the center Orion arm
This picture shows the Sun which accounts for 99.86% of our solar system’s mass How big is our Sun compared to the rest? 90% of stars are smaller than our Sun Our nearest neighbor? Proxima centuari
Is this our Moon? Significance of the image? Can you name some natural satellites of other planets? The Vacuum cleaner !! Of our solar system Far side of the moon!
Smells like life finally? Can you name some awesome features about earth? http://youtu.be/sGpTkxdJG2E

http://earthobservatory.nasa.gov/Features/Wo rldOfChange/decadaltemp.php Temperature change in about 100 years?! By 2030 nearly half the global population could be facing water scarcity. Demand could outstrip supply by 40 per cent
The human impact on climate during the industrial era greatly exceeds that due to known changes in natural processes, such as solar changes and volcanic eruptions…….. Human Activities affect Climate change
Human Activities affect Climate change
Climate change affect on Sea Levels
Forest cover reduction
A 2013 study on non-smokers has found that Indians have 30% lower lung function compared to Europeans. 2013 Environmental Performance Index ranked India 155 out of 178 countries In cities like Bangalore, around 50% of children suffer from asthma India was the third largest emitter of carbon dioxide in 2009 at 1.65 Gt per year, after China (6.9 Gt per year) and the United States (5.2 Gt per year). The Global burden of disease study for 2010, published in 2013, had found that outdoor air pollution was the fifth-largest killer in India and around 620,000 early deaths occurred from air pollution-related diseases in 2010. According to a WHO study, 13 of the 20 most-polluted cities in the world are in India; however, the accuracy and methodology of the WHO study was questioned by the Government of India led by Manmohan Singh.

  • #13: The largest known contribution comes from the burning of fossil fuels, which releases carbon dioxide gas to the atmosphere. Greenhouse gases and aerosols affect climate by altering incoming solar radiation and outgoing infrared (thermal) radiation that are part of Earth’s energy balance.
