Global warming is a phenomenon that entraps heat causing a gradual increase in the temperature of the earth due to the release of greenhouse gases like carbon dioxide, methane, etc.

'It is estimated that developed countries like the USA contribute more towards global warming as compared to a country like India'. Here are a few probable reasons.

  • The United States is accounted as the world's second-largest greenhouse gas emitter hence leading to prime contributor towards global warming.
  • Fossil fuels are widely used in huge amounts in the USA, it is also being traded globally hence making it more prone to greenhouse gas emissions from fossil fuel combustion.
  • India emits an average of 7% of global emission even though it holds 17% of the world population
  • The green house gas emitted by India is lesser than the world average.
  • Developed countries like the USA have industries and technologies that produce a carbon footprint in large amounts as that of a developing country like India.
  • With the advancement and increase in industrialization, India might surpass the carbon emission in coming years.
