Europa
Europa is the sixth closest moon of the planet Jupiter. Europa was discovered in 1610 by Galileo Galilei.Slightly smaller than Earth's Moon, Europa is primarily made of silicate rock and probably has an iron core.

Debt-crippled Greece has depended since May 2010 on international rescue loans, granted by its European partners and the International Monetary Fund, in return for a deeply unpopular austerity program.
The Mohorovicic Discontinuity marks the lower limit of Earth's crust.
The Mohorovicic Discontinuity marks the lower limit of Earth's crust. As stated above it occurs at an average depth of about 8 kilometers beneath the ocean basins and 32 kilometers beneath continental surfaces.
Mohorovicic discontinuity
The various layers are separated by discontinuities which are evident in seismic data; the best known of these is the Mohorovicic discontinuity between the crust and upper mantle.In geology the word "discontinuity" is used for a surface at which seismic waves change velocity. One of these surfaces exists at an average depth of 8 kilometers beneath the ocean basin and at an average depth of about 32 kilometers beneath the continents. At this discontinuity, seismic waves accelerate. This surface is known as the Mohorovicic Discontinuity.
The inner core and crust are solid; the outer core and mantle layers are plastic or semi-fluid..
The crust varies considerably in thickness, it is thinner under the oceans, thicker under the continents. The inner core and crust are solid; the outer core and mantle layers are plastic or semi-fluid.
The Moon provides ocean tides, stabilizes the axial tilt, and gradually slows the planet's rotation..
Earth's only natural satellite, the Moon, which began orbiting it about 4.53 billion years ago, provides ocean tides, stabilizes the axial tilt, and gradually slows the planet's rotation.
Earth formed 4.54 billion years ago..
Earth formed 4.54 billion years ago, and life appeared on its surface within one billion years. About 71% of the surface is covered by salt water oceans, with the remainder consisting of continents and islands which together have many lakes and other sources of water that contribute to the hydrosphere.

Earth's mean surface temperature has increased by about 0.8 °C with about two-thirds of the increase occurring since 1980.
Earth's mean surface temperature has increased by about 0.8 °C with about two-thirds of the increase occurring since 1980.Climate model projections are summarized in the 2007 Fourth Assessment Report (AR4) by the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC). They indicate that during the 21st century the global surface temperature is likely to rise a further 1.1 to 2.9 °C for their lowest emissions scenario and 2.4 to 6.4 °C for their highest.
The amount of sea ice in the Arctic had fallen to the lowest level on record..
In August 2012, researchers announced that the amount of sea ice in the Arctic had fallen to the lowest level on record, a confirmation of the drastic warming in the region and a likely harbinger of larger changes to come.
United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change
The United Nations has sponsored annual global talks, the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change, an international treaty signed by 194 countries to cooperatively discuss global climate change and its impact.
Global warming has become perhaps the most complicated issue facing world leaders.
Global warming has become perhaps the most complicated issue facing world leaders. Warnings from the scientific community are becoming louder, as an increasing body of science points to rising dangers from the ongoing buildup of human-related greenhouse gases — produced mainly by the burning of fossil fuels and forests.
The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) is the leading international body for the assessment of climate change.
The Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) is the leading international body for the assessment of climate change.It was established by the United Nations Environment Programme (UNEP) and the World Meteorological Organization (WMO) in 1988.The IPCC is an intergovernmental body. It is open to all member countries of the United Nations (UN) and WMO.

बाल मजदूरी से मुक्त कराए गए बच्चों के पुनर्वास के लिए सरकार ने देश के 266 जिलों में राष्ट्रीय बाल श्रम परियोजना लागू की है। इस परियोजना के अंतर्गत ऐसे बच्चों को विशेष स्कूलों में दाखिल किया जाता है, जहां उन्हें औपचारिक शिक्षा प्रणाली में डालने से पहले शिक्षा, व्यवसायिक प्रशिक्षण, पौष्टिक आहार, स्वास्थ्य सुविधाएं आदि प्रदान की जाती हैं। वर्ष 2010-11 में इस योजना पर 92.71 करोड़ रूपये खर्च हुए, जबकि संशोधित अनुमान 92.80 करोड़ रूपये का था। वर्ष 2011-12 में 373 करोड़ रूपये की बजट राशि में से 21 नवंबर, 2011 तक 70 करोड़ रूपये खर्च किए जा चुके हैं।
