Global Warming

Global warming is the increase in the average temperature of Earth's near-surface air and oceans since the mid-20th century and its projected continuation. According to a report by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) global surface temperature increased 0.74 ± 0.18 °C between the start and the end of the 20th century.

Global Warming Changes
    An increase in global temperature will cause sea levels to rise and will change the amount and pattern of precipitation, probably including expansion of subtropical deserts.Warming is expected to be strongest in the Arctic and would be associated with continuing retreat of glaciers, permafrost and sea ice. Other likely effects include changes in the frequency and intensity of extreme weather events, species extinctions, and changes in agricultural yields.





Global Warming Causes
    The major cause of global warming is the emission of green house gases like carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide etc into the atmosphere. The major source of carbon dioxide is the power plants. These power plants emit large amounts of carbon dioxide produced from burning of fossil fuels for the purpose of electricity eneration. About twenty percent of carbon dioxide emitted in the atmosphere comes from burning of gasoline in the engines of the vehicles. This is true for most of the developed countries. Buildings, both commercial and residential represent a larger source of global warming pollution than cars and trucks.Building of these structures require a lot of fuel to be burnt which emits a large amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere.

How to Take Action to Reduce Global Warming
  • Get educated about Globale Warming.
  • Vote and influence your government with telephone calls, e-mails, letters and meetings with those who represent you in government.
  • Grow fast growing plants. 
  • Use public transportation. 
  • Use Refills.
  • Choose vegetarian or vegan meals.
  • Recycle more by using recycling bins, composting, etc.
  • Use compact fluorescent bulbs.
  • Use recycled paper.
  • Buy locally made and locally grown products. 
  • Count your carbon.
  • Buy minimally packaged goods.
  • Replace old appliances and reduce reliance on them.

Google

Till 20th century, Life slogan is " KHANA KAPDA aur MAKAAN".
But in 21st century, Its become "KHANA KAPDA aur MOBILE"
In future , It will become, "KHANA KAPDA aur INTERNET".

If you know about internet, obviously you know Google. I am sure that, If you are connected to internet, your system have at least one Google application. without that it is impossible to do any work. In 1998, Google handled 10,000 searches a day and 500,000 a day in 1999. According to research group estimates that Google hosted 400 million queries per day recently. ( Data: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Google_Search )

Initiative:
1995:
Larry Page and Sergey Brin meet at Stanford. (Larry, 22, a U Michigan grad, is considering the school; Sergey, 21, is assigned to show him around.) According to some accounts, they disagree about most everything during this first meeting.

1996:
Larry and Sergey, now Stanford computer science grad students, begin collaborating on a search engine called BackRub.
BackRub operates on Stanford servers for more than a year -- eventually taking up too much bandwidth to suit the university.

1997:
Larry and Sergey decide that the BackRub search engine needs a new name. After some brainstorming, they go with Google -- a play on the word "googol," a mathematical term for the number represented by the numeral 1 followed by 100 zeros. The use of the term reflects their mission to organize a seemingly infinite amount of information on the web.
...

Life of a Google Query:
The life span of a Google query normally lasts less than half a second, yet involves a number of different steps that must be completed before results can be delivered to a person seeking information.




It means, many things in back stage :)
