Save the Planet...........

The average facade temperature of the globe has augmented more than 1 degree Fahrenheit since 1900 and the speed of warming has been almost three folds the century long average since 1970. This increase in earth’s average temperature is called Global warming. More or less all specialists studying the climate record of the earth have the same opinion now that human actions, mainly the discharge of green house gases from smokestacks, vehicles, and burning forests, are perhaps the leading power driving the fashion. The gases append to the planet's normal greenhouse effect, permitting sunlight in, but stopping some of the ensuing heat from radiating back to space. Based on the study on past climate shifts, notes of current situations, and computer simulations, many climate scientists say that lacking of big curbs in greenhouse gas discharges, the 21st century might see temperatures rise of about 3 to 8 degrees, climate patterns piercingly shift, ice sheets contract and seas rise several feet. With the probable exemption of one more world war, a huge asteroid, or a fatal plague, global warming may be the only most danger to our planet earth.

After nearly two weeks of the IPL in which veterans like Matthew Hayden and Adam Gilchrist have been at their best, Sachin Tendulkar has insisted that age has little relation to a player's performance in Twenty20.

"I don't know who says that it's a young man's game. Clearly, he doesn't know much about cricket," Tendulkar told the IPL's official website. "It's a cricketers' game so it really doesn't matter whether you are young or old. It is a cricketer's match."

Buffett, 78, bought Berkshire, a struggling textile mill, in 1965. Berkshire's market value is now roughly $145 billion. Berkshire owns close to 80 companies, including auto insurer Geico, reinsurer General Re, ice cream maker Dairy Queen and utility MidAmerican Energy.

Buffett has nearly all his net worth, estimated in March at $40 billion by Forbes magazine, invested in Berkshire. He has said every Berkshire share he has will go to philanthropies after his death. In June 2006, he pledged 85 percent of his net worth to the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation and four family charities. He supports several charities, including Girls Inc, a social service agency, and the Glide Foundation, a San Francisco nonprofit offering programs for the poor, hungry and homeless.
