In previous years there has been seen an increase in average global temperature of earth due to global warming.
This has led to various complications in our ecosystem.
1. Rise in water level
Due to global warming glaciers are melting leading to rise in water level.
There has been a decrease in total snow cover in various countries.
2. Rise in global temperature
The average temperature of earth has been rised by 0.6 degree celsius.
This has been led to frequent drought and floods in various regions.
3. Effect on plant
Plant uses carbon dioxide to make food by the process of photosynthesis.
They are undergoing co2 fetilization effect due to increased co2 level.
This will be having various diadvantages ahead.
The yield of the crop and the quality of the crop will reduce.
4. Increase co2 level
Due to global warming there has been increase in co2 level.
The water capacity to hold co2 has been increased.
5. Effect on animals
Several diseases are happening to animal or humans due to global warming.

The first genetically engineered crop in india is Bt cotton. It has been developed by Maharastra Hybrid Seeds Company Pros- 1. It is genetically altered to produce proteins which are harmful to insects. 2. It can control lepidopteran (corn borers). 3.Bt cotton plant produces insecticide to coRead more
Pros-
1. It is genetically altered to produce proteins which are harmful to insects.
2. It can control lepidopteran (corn borers).
3.Bt cotton plant produces insecticide to cotton combat ballworms.
4. A cry gene introduced in it produces crystalline bt.
5.It gets activated by the alkaline gut of the insect and make holes in the intestine resulting in the death of the insect which consumes it.
6. It helps in reduction of soil pollution.
Cons-
1. It is very costly.
2.It is toxic for pollinating insects.
3.It is ineffective against some pests and insects.
4.Some insects became resistant to it.
With advances in genetic engineering and biotechnology the advantages will overcome the cons effect of it.
