Question

During the past century, the temperature of the earth has increased by ${0.6}^{o}C$ , most of it during the last few decades. Rise in temperature causes deleterious changes in the environment, thus leading to increased melting of polar ice caps as well as other places like Himalayan snow caps. Suggest any two control measures that will reduce global warming?

• Reduced the use of fossil fuels to reduce greenhouse emissions,
  
• Use of eco-friendly energy efficient fuels,
  
• Use of renewable source of energy and
  
• Reforestation.
