The gap between speech and tax will raise questions against the protection of the environment

- In the year 2023, for the first time, there will be more investment in clean energy compared to fossil fuel

For nearly 25 years, awareness has grown to reduce the carbon footprint (i.e. carbon dioxide, methane and other toxic gases released into the atmosphere by industries, people, vehicles and every activity on Earth). Five years ago, in an agreement in Paris, the world's leading countries decided to reduce the carbon footprint by 40 percent by 2030 compared to 1990. It will be surprising to know that 2023 will be the first time in which there will be more investment in renewable (re-cyclable) or clean energy sources like solar, wind, compared to fossil (or fossil) based energy sources like crude, coal!

But the determination and actual steps taken by world leaders to reduce carbon footprints are contradictory. On the back of clean energy production, modern technology for electric vehicles is coming, but coal remains the largest source of electricity. Although investment has increased for wind energy, the world is still predominantly coal dependent. The Corona epidemic, the Russia-Ukraine war and the discord between each other in various countries have posed a formidable challenge to the world. A challenge that has a profound impact on the entire human race.

According to the report of the International Energy Agency, in 2023, 1 trillion (one lakh crore) dollars will be invested in the world for new sources of fossil-based energy, increasing production, while 1.7 trillion dollars are going to be invested mainly for solar and other renewable energy production. The agency estimates that investment in clean energy will increase by 24 percent this year, while investment in fossil fuels will increase by 15 percent.

Coal production decreased during the lockdown. finished in unfinished,

The Russia-Ukraine war has massively affected supplies of both coal and crude. Living on coal-based electricity, India and China have been forced to increase coal imports. The International Energy Agency estimates that investment behind coal production will grow at a record rate of 10 percent this year. Coal has again become the main source of energy. Coal increases the carbon footprint and thus worsens the situation.

The atmosphere is warming due to the release of greenhouse gases and deforestation on the earth. If the year 2016 was a record hot one, then the summer of the current year is likely to break the record. It is predicted that if the carbon footprint is not reduced in accordance with the Paris Agreement of 2018, the temperature of the earth will increase by an average of 1.5 degrees Celsius. There is still a dire forecast, the World Meteorological Organization of the United Nations has predicted that from 2023 to 2027 the temperature on earth (surface temperature) will be so high as to break all records in history. The damage done to the Earth's climate and atmosphere is irreversible. Icebergs collapse in Greenland, West Antarctica, extremely high temperatures, droughts, water shortages will continue to occur.

...and events of this prediction coming true have also happened around the world. This week, the mercury in Vietnam recorded the highest temperature in its history of 44 degrees. A record 44.6 degrees has been observed in Thailand and 43.8 degrees in Myanmar. Four of the five hottest days on record have occurred in the past three years. It is predicted that 2023 will be equally hot. The month of March has recorded the heaviest rainfall in India's history.

Over the past four decades, efforts to avert man-made disasters have begun slowly. Former US Vice President Al Gore made a documentary called 'An Inconvenient Truth' and spread awareness about the dire effects of climate change at the global level. Everyone knows that the challenges ahead will be dire, dangerous for humanity, but the gap between the word and the tax in the fast pace of development is surely dragging the world to greater harm.
