Abstract

Present paper highlights the consequences of global warming in the life style of the people of India. Due to the extreme rise in temperature not only human beings but also various specie has been in problematic situation. According to the statistics, it has been estimated that earth temperature has increased to a great level since mid 20th century due to the increased atmospheric green house gas concentrations globally because of the increased demand of the human living standard. Global warming causes the climate to change including the rise of sea level.Recently, the intergovernmental panel on climate change (IPCC), in its fifth assessment report has suggested a 1.5 mm sea level rise per year for India. As a developing country, where around half of the total population is below the poverty line, India is going to be one of the worst sufferers of this due to its disaster prone and low elevation geography.
