Concept of green house gases as viewed by a science teacher

It’s rightly said, ‘where there is a will there is a way’. It has come true in the life of a school teacher from the remote northeastern state of Tripura, which lags behind the facilities in the field of development in many respect. Sujit Bhowmik, a retired science teacher from Government school, Agartala has earned a number of achievements to his credit during his tenure in service and has continued his efforts even after his retirement. He contributed a number of articles related to health, environment and wildlife etc; in English and Bengali language newspapers and periodicals. Several books he has got published so far with him minimum source of income.

Now, he has come out with a single line theory on green house gases comparing the environment of first and second century with the present crisis torn world due to population explosion creating hardship to human lives. He maintains, during the first and second century the population throughout the world was very less and the green house gases were plenty in environment.  Amidst wide forest areas huge wild fires were the major danger to human lives. Machines and fire extinguishers were not invented those days and the fires continued unhindered till the people succeeded to douse those. With the growing population and growth of civilized society, the machineries and equipments were invented for the use.

The writer maintains that the ancient huge and frequent fires harm was equivalent and not less than civilization made, environmental havocs. The ancient, huge frequent wild fires harm is equivalent and not less than present day’s vehicles and industrial combustions. The heat of huge and frequent wild fires of ancient days are  equivalent o amount of green house gases emissions by all vehicles, industries, jets ships, trains, domestic inputs combined. Therefore the nature lovers and environmental scientists most not harbor any anxiety, thinking of alarming situations of environmental degradation.

In another achievement of this writer, a team of doctors at All India Institute of Medical Sciences (AIIMS), New Delhi, accepted his suggestions on ophthalmology in 1989 and started functioning on its basis’. The findings and concept of this writer was appreciated by World Health Organization (WHO), Geneva in 1997. One of his articles on dentistry was published in the prestigious Indian Medical Association (IMA)Journal. The Tripura state government ‘s forest department awarded him for writing slogans about forestation in 2006, Self-help group and conservation of wildlife.etc.

One of the major contribution of this writer was a suggestion aiming to check air crashes caused by aircraft-birds collision which was appreciated by Capt. R K Sen, former director of aviation, Dumdum, Kolkata, who sent the formula to all anti-bird hazard committees constituted at each and every airports of the country. The concept was also sent to Airbus and Boeing manufacturing authorities. The idea also got appreciation at the Kolkata Science  Fair. Recently Indian Army has highly appreciated the ideas of security system and accepted the same.

With an idea to get rapid development of the Northeastern region, the Union government constituted a separate directorate, namely, the Directorate of North Eastern Region (DoNER), which has now turned to ‘do nothing in entire region’. This can be judged by the activities going on in the two major paper mills in the state of Assam, which are facing a threat of closure at any time. These paper mills, the units of Hindustan Paper Corporation Ltd, the Nagaon Paper Mills, Jagiroad in Morigaon district and the Cachar Paper Mill, in Panchgram of Barak valley, are suffering from acute shortage of raw materials for several years. The production in both mills have been badly affected and workers have...
Industrial development in India has ever been dependent on the political will of leadership since independence. It was because of the fact that no ‘fair policy’ could be framed by the Union Government for ‘equal development’ of all the regions of the country simultaneously. That is why some of the areas remained completely neglected and others developed beyond limit. Besides the metropolis and a few industrial cities, where opportunities were ample for industrial growth, there have been vast disparity in the growth of industries. The industrialization of a particular area depends fully on the degree of political influence in its favor.A few industries in the country have been setup on the...
Emergency imposed by former prime minister,  Indira Gandhi in the year 1975, was no doubt a bad thing for democracy, but in no way it was harmful to make the nation disciplined. That is the reason even some of her staunch critics had appreciated the steps taken by her at that crucial juncture.Democracy is for the disciplined people and unless the people are disciplined, the democracy has no meaning. A wrong notion is prevailing in our country about democracy now-a-days. The simple interpretation of democracy i.e. equal rights in society, is taken as freedom of speech, freedom of work, freedom to abuse or commit nuisance, freedom to live as per one’s life-style. It is because of this...

India’s partition in the year 1947 on the basis of religion was a great mistake. It was a part of conspiracy planted by the British rulers, who succeeded in managing Muslim League leader, Mohammad Ali Jinnah to be rigid on his stand for a homeland and independent nation for the followers of Islam dividing India between the Muslim majority and other communities dominated areas. Despite all efforts made by Mahatma Gandhi to keep the country united, the result was not conducive due to sticky stand of both the Indian National Congress (INC) and the Muslim League (ML) leaders, which led to the danger of chaotic situation in the country. The situation could have resulted in long stay of the...
