These are technical know how, I don't ONGC under whose technology?
I mean the present status of Oil exploration and it's technology is not at all cost effective.
Why US invaded Iraq? India can't do that.
Hope you understand the level of inflation probably in USA.

Starts , grows / develops , fadesout.
Imagine we are in which stage, probably the fadeout stage. Earth life is coming to an end; It has a break through only if an alternative power source is invented.
Petroleum reserves are no more cost effective which gave a break through during 70's. For every reason the crude prices are raised; What will happen to countries like India except landing into inflation; This inflation is just a tip of an iceberg.

'Global dimming' now a reality
By Aarti Dhar
NEW DELHI, MAY 23. With the increase in cloud cover and particles in the atmosphere, the amount of radiation reaching the earth from the sun is decreasing. This phenomenon of "global dimming" is now being accepted as a reality by scientists the world over. Some of them believe that this may help in protecting the planet from global warming, according to a report in the Nature.
Since the late 1950s, scientists have observed a 2 to 4 per cent reduction in the amount of solar radiation reaching the earth's surface. Previous studies had been confined to the northern hemisphere; it was believed to be a local phenomenon and questions were raised whether the phenomenon even existed.
A presentation by Australian scientists at the Joint Assembly of the American and Canadian Geophysical Unions in Montreal last week showed that this effect was also found south of the equator. Studies showed that the evaporation rates across Australia had fallen significantly over the past 30 years, proving that less direct sunlight was reaching the surface. The decline matched the effect seen in the northern hemisphere, thus proving the phenomenon.
Scientists also see global dimming as a process working against global warming. The burning of fossil fuels not only increases the carbon dioxide level in the atmosphere, but also pumps tiny particles into the air. Higher temperatures lead to an increased cloud cover, which help block the sun's rays. The scattered light that the clouds allow through boosts the plants' absorption of carbon dioxide. This will help keep the carbon dioxide level stable and protect the planet from global warming. The scattered light takes a zigzag path, bathing every part of the plant's leaves instead of just one surface. Even if the overall amount of light is lower, this can increase the plant's rate of photosynthesis and more carbon dioxide is removed from the atmosphere. The only plants that might suffer are those in the northern European greenhouses, which are in desperate need for light and any reduction may affect their growth.

i dont think that the global dimming is a good one because this is going on due to the change in the atmosphere and the different gases make the sky invisible and the sun's rays sre not well reflected.

Posted by: Pallavi At: 6, Aug 2004 2:58:11 PM IST its a good movie, crativity and photography are really good.
something like that may happen but may not be that suddenly, but still the effect will be very serious on the mankind
Posted by: Mr. nishanth gadireddy At: 6, Aug 2004 1:25:02 PM IST I have seen the film and inspired to start this this discussion
Posted by: Mr. nagarjuna kommineni At: 6, Aug 2004 1:19:29 PM IST hi nagarjuna, rather than rise of co2 level the raise of co level is very dangerous and it is increasing rapildy due to the 2 and 3 wheelers. and this is the main cause for ozone layer destruction.
and ofourse co2 also adds up to the warming, but its rise is because of deforestation.
and it is a very serious effect in the future. as shown creatively in movie "the day after tommorrow" something similar may happen, and in last decade, even the sea level of bay of bengal also increased due to the addition of fresh water. i mean water generated due to ice melting, but it is very minor, and with time the sea level is going to raise.
Posted by: Mr. nishanth gadireddy At: 6, Aug 2004 1:15:28 PM IST It is the eleventh hour to the man to save the world from global warming.
the rise of temperature on the earth surface is known as global warming.
th emain causes for global warming is the dirty things made by mankind.
man does not bother about the climatic changes in the atmosphere.
the main causes are
1)ozone damage
2)rise of co2 level in the atmosphere.
