Baktawng (Mizoram), Jan 1 (IANS) Amazing but true! A family of 180 members in Mizoram makes one complete village. Welcome to Baktawng, 90 km north of state capital Aizawl, for a taste of incredible India.
In the quiet Mizo hamlet, 64-year-old patriarch Ziona presides over 180 members, including his scores of wives and over a hundred children. Ziona, who married 50 times and fathered 109 children, is the self-styled chief of Baktawng, a village ringed by verdant hills.
“Yes, Ziona heads the village. His family could be the largest joint family in the world,” said Mizoram Home Minister Tawanluia.
The “villagers” said Guinness Book of World Records officials recently tried to put Ziona into their records for getting married the highest number of women. But the effort went in vain because he refused to pose for a photograph.

Global warming is the increase in average temperature of the Earth’s atmosphere. In the last few decades this increase has been relatively significant
Causes of Global Warming
The general scientific belief for
global warming is the increased burning of fossil fuels and thus increases the emission of greenhouse gases into the Earth’s atmosphere. Some greenhouse gases are produced naturally while others are the direct result of human activities. Natural greenhouse gases include carbon dioxide, methane, nitrous oxide, ozone and water vapor. Human activities then increase the amount of these gases produced naturally. Greenhouse gases that are man-made include sulfur hexafluoride (SF6), hydrofluorocarbons (HFCs), and perfluorocarbons (PFCs), which are created in a number of industrial processes. An increase in greenhouse gases increases the temperature of the Earth because they are transparent to short wave radiation from the sun, while they have the ability to absorb the cooler infra-red radiation from the Earth. This fact alone describes how greenhouse gases make it more difficult for the Earth the cool itself off.
Human activities are considered one of the main causes of global warming. Several human activities increase the emission of certain greenhouse gases into the atmosphere. When fossil fuels such as oils, natural gas, and coal, in addition to wood, wood products, and solid waste are burned they emit Carbon Dioxide. Methane is emitted during such activities as the production and transportation of certain natural gases, coal, and oil. The raising of
livestock and the decomposition of organic wastes in solid waste landfills also have resulted in the emission of Methane. During both industrial and
agricultural activities and the combustion of solid waste and fossil fuels nitrous oxide is emitted. The actual percentage of Carbon dioxide recorded is and increase by 31% since 1750 and about ¾ of this increase is from deforestation and the burning of fossil fuels.
