Abstract

Climate change: The trophosphere layer is (approximately 15 km) very shortest length between the surface of Earth and to the next layer of stratosphere (50 km) is very important for life of livings. The World populations reached approximately 8 billions and 9 millions without including animal’s statistics. All of them required quality air for breath, portable water and fertile soil for cultivation of food sources. The trophosphere layer is highly polluted with increased anthropogenic activities for 100 of years, the next layer of stratosphere where the ozone layer formed to protect us from ultra violet rays, which the layer is penetrated by high toxic chemical pollutants is the reason to enter the ultra violet rays to trophosphere atmosphere of Earth. The clouds cause rains where the toxic harmful chemicals and gases are concentrated it falls as rain drops and it reaches soil and surface water sources, then it reaches ground water as well. Due to the climate change the temperature is globally changing either it is too hot or extreme cold and always fluctuating weather unable to predict the seasons of winter, spring, summer and monsoon. The temperature raises or it reaches extreme cold for oceans, Antartic glaciers is melting and raising sea level and invading land spaces. The climate policy initiatives aimed at maintaining global average temperatures 1.5OC and reaching zero emissions by 2050. Global warming: The Earth has a natural Green House Effect (GHE) due to trace amounts of water vapor (H2 O), carbon dioxide (CO2 ), methane (CH4) and nitrous oxide (N2 O) in the atmosphere.In the absence of the natural greenhouse effect the surface of the Earth would be approximately 33°C cooler. The enhanced greenhouse effect refers to the additional radiative forcing resulting from increased concentrations of greenhouse gases induced by human activities. The main greenhouse gases whose concentrations are raising carbon dioxide, hydrochlorofluorocarbons (HCFCs), hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs) methane, nitrous oxide, and ozone in the lower atmosphere. The major green house gases stay in the atmosphere for tens to hundreds of years after being released, their warming effects on the climate persists over a long time and it affects present and future generations. A green house gas emissions from human activities increase, they build up in the atmosphere, on land and in the oceans. E1 Nino is the warming of sea waters in the central-east Equatorial Pacific that occurs every few years. La Nina is the more cooler of sea waters than average temperature in the east Equatorial Pacific region. The neutral state between E1 Nina and La Nino this antithetical effects is called the E1 Nino Southern Oscillation. The Air Quality Index. Purity of air is assessed in atmosphere by AQI – it ranges from 0- 301+. The good index level is 0-50 (Green). Moderate level is 51-100 and unhealthy is 151-200. Very unhealthy is 201-300 and above 300 + is hazardous category. New Delhi already reached above 300 and few states are unhealthy to hazardous category in India.

Journal of Global Public Health, Volume 5 Number 1, January - June 2023 26 Introduction Earth’s Atmosphere When you look at the sky, it is white clouds in different sizes, figures and also sometimes dark black clouds moving fast and ready to rain, rarely the rain falls on ice crystals with throwing like stones and you may feel of breeze air to inhale in early morning in winter season and when you walk on the hill station a mist can spread on the road to block the path when you walk with bare foot in valley you feel a gentle winds touch and cross you this all experience just the effects of trophosphere atmosphere. Earth’s atmosphere stretches from the surface of the planet up to as far as 10,000 kilometers (6,214 miles) above. After that, the atmosphere blends into space. Most of the scientists can agree that the bulk of the atmosphere is located close to Earth’s surface troposphere up to a distance of around eight to 15 kilometers (five to 10 miles). While oxygen is necessary for most life on Earth, the atmosphere is composed of about 78 percent nitrogen, 21 percent oxygen, 0.9 percent argon, and 0.1 percent other gases. Trace amounts of carbon dioxide, methane, water vapor, and neon are some of the other gases that make up the remaining 0.1 percent. The atmosphere is divided into five different layers, based on temperature. The layer closest to Earth’s surface is the Troposphere, reaching from about eight and 15 than framing the climate change in broader aspect, it is directed a life style changes or right choices and selected by the innovative choices to reduce the further worsening of health of people. The Government recommended activities are, each can consume vegetarian food (the less wastage), Alternate of using individual car and bike and to focus public transports of buses and trains, e-vehicles for the reduction of emissions. Cultivating paddy other than different choices of yield for economically equal to farmers of the states of Punjab, Haryana to prevent stubble burning land for thousands of acres at the same time line. It needs good collaboration with farmers and Government to work together to plan yield cultivation in different demographic lands at a time. Government Regulatories & Policy Making: It is ineffective and failure of laws and regulations to monitor and control measures. It is emergency need to revise the rules and mandatory to create new Indian penal code section of penalty and imprisonment of violating the act. The policy alone not going to change the people attitudes and made them to understand the real facts is important. Change is not easy, it takes time, but really we don’t have time for gradual progress to implement step by step procedure of initiation of pollution control by Government. Conclusion: It need revolutionary changes to contribute each one from society, follow the right behaviors and immediate behavior of life style changes. Government of India made goals and objectives of quality air atmosphere but it is not reach every citizen of India. Each member of universe can realize the seriousness of the issue and follow the right behaviors and actions to control further worsening of polluted atmosphere on Earth and humans need to follow the right choices for healthier life. Recommendations: on Behavior of Life style changes & Innovative choices, 1. Emission free environment, 2. Quality air atmosphere for healthy life, 3. Value based traditional practices, 4. Deforestation, 5. Policy making plan & Implementation process.
