CLIMATE CHANGE – A MYTH OR REALITY Climate change is one of the most discussed issues in modern times. Some people believe it to be real and are vocal about it, while others are skeptical and consider it a myth.

The Green New Deal courtesy: google Why the Green New Deal? Climate Change and global warming are two of the most discussed topics around the world. There are conspiracies around these issues; there are many groups who tell very different stories when it comes to climate change. But, scientifically proved facts cannot be denied. Scientists some years back were of the view that 1.5 degrees Celsius rise in the earth atmospheric temperature is a threshold, which should not be crossed for us to live in a safe environment; and some kept the allowance even up to 2 degrees Celsius. But now the situation has changed and scientists after further studies, are suggesting that even half a degree rise can have very adverse effects; 2 degrees rise in earth’s atmospheric temperature will be equivalent to a catastrophe, which will very likely cause mass migrations, deadly heat stress; it will cost millions of lives and trillions of dollars. These facts were too shocking to be ignored, t...

Is only Accountability enough for politics to purify? Corruption is without a doubt one of the major causes of political impurity. To most of the people accountability of politicians is the only way to purify the political system of a country; but that is nonetheless a misguided and incomplete approach. There are a number of other reasons why the political system get dirty and without taking them all into the account, the system will not go towards political purity. Education and politics Education has a direct relation with the political system of a country. If people are properly educated what they will do, is use their vote properly. They will know what to expect from their politicians. They will not vote for people who are dishonest and corrupt, so this will defeat the notion of financial corruption at home. It will not be easy for such politicians to manipulate the educated voters. Those countries where the literary rate is higher the corruption is way lower than ...
