Campus Fest

The changes that our planet has undergone throughout its history are a result of natural factors like tiny changes in the Earth's path around the sun, volcanic activity and fluctuations within the climate system. However, humans are having an increasing influence on our climate by burning fossil fuels, cutting down rainforests and farming livestock. The greenhouse gas most commonly produced by human activities is carbon dioxide (CO₂),which is responsible for 63% of global warming. The greenhouse gases absorb infrared radiation and trap the heat in the atmosphere. Since the Industrial Revolution, the concentration of CO₂ in the atmosphere has increased by around 37%, and it continues to rise. The increasing CO₂ level in the atmosphere will cause a severe damage to the eco-system. It has to be curtailed in all quarters of the activities related to the carbon emission.
This symposium will address these issues by providing a platform to the world scientific community, industrialists, environmentalists and the social scientists.
