Europe experiences warm winter

By 1127 0

Europe has experienced a warm winter this year. The average temperature of this year’s winters has been at least 1.4 C above than the previous year.

Definitely, the increase in the temperature in the continent of Europe is the after-effect of climate change.

Not only this continent, but also the entire world suffers due to climate change at this juncture.

It is high time to formulate an effective universal strategy to counter the issue of climate change.

The Paris Climate treaty was a good beginning. Unfortunately, that does not work in the right direction at this moment. The departure of the US from the climate treaty obligation left the organisation less powerful.

What Europe experiences at this moment is a remainder. The world can no longer remain insensitive about climate change.

It is inhuman to put the burden of our mistake to our successors. It is our duty to keep earth inhabitable for the future generation.

The more love we have in our future generation, the more careful we becomes in the matter of climate change, as the actual victim of this issue is the future generation not the present.

It is the Syrian War that stands as the prime reason for the emergence of the global migrant crisis. The Europe is the prime victim of the crisis.

Greece is struggling with the crisis at this juncture. The latest action of Turkey is likely to bring chaos in Greece, which is already in a very bad state.
