Owing to their own ignorance and an empathetic attitude towards ecology of the world, people are emitting harmful toxicants, gas and other materials destroying the environment everyday in the atmosphere. This has brought up the syndrome of global warming. This refers to the increase of the average temperature around us.  The hotter the earth grows; more would be natural disasters like cyclone, floods, and droughts.  In the past century, the temperature of the earth has risen by around 10 Celsius. Scientists have found out that no less than 40-50% of the rise in temperature has been caused by faulty building designs and not constructing house that even resemble a Fertighaus.   

In addition, we have been consciously destroying the greeneries around us with felling of trees, cutting of forests and even mowing of the grass grown knowing full well that ultimately these may lead to disastrous conditions. A lot of damages sustained could have been repaired with the setting up of kitchen Garten or Naturkost around our habitations and buildings constructed, but this has also become a rarity. Even where such things are set up, they are not made in a planned way and the result on the ecology and environment is almost a nullity.
