Six days have gone since 2011 left!
Sitting through the seminar presentations on climate change, I am left wondering where are we headed vis a vis our sustainable lifestyles are concerned. The world and people continues to be fast paced and is in an urge to make the best of the available opportunities. With little regard to the consequences of their action, people are now carried away by the ad "1 second can change your life"! So, plunder and exploitation has become the order of the day.
Man must accommodate other living creatures in his midst, if at all he thinks to survive on this planet for some more time. Nature has produced a lot of diversity not without a purpose. Every creation has got a role, be it a mosquito, dog, a weed, a virus or an elephant. Nature has also designed limits for every species through the prey-predator concept. If the number of one species get out of hand, a pest or a disease is automatically brought in to balance. This rule is also applicable to humans. And every biological creation will meet its biological end. After all, extinction is a biological reality.
In this new year, let us remain vigilant and ensure that the diversity, what ever is left remaining, is conserved and allowed to be populated. Let us lead a more sustainable life,by conserving water, by polluting less and learning to say NO to things which we can avoid buying.
Let us also plant more number of trees in the freely available community spaces in our neighborhood. Let us build a small garden in our home. Let us enjoy the birds, the bees and the butterflies. Let us conserve our wells, ponds and playgrounds. Let us say NO to plastic carry bags and other useless stuff made out of this, no matter even if it is being sold at Rs. 10 or not.
More importantly, let us prod our young generation to take time off from their "virtual and mobile world" and be amongst the natural wonders. The real world is much fanciful than what they see in NGC, AP or Discovery channels.
Have a wonderful and productive 2012 and more............
It's the natural resource that sets up the course of development of an economy,but at the same time it poses some challenges which is unacceptable to human minds. wat's important is change of mind which in turn brings a drastic change in our perception, to build a green economy by striking a balance between consevation and preservation.
ReplyDeleteIt's true that " A new and advanced civilisation comes only after destruction and devastation",now the time has come to rebuild a new society in conformity with natural rules and guidelines.
This article highlights only the natural wealth and it's over expolitation without maintaing the fact the we would't have landed to moon and mars so rapidly since the inception our kind without exploiting natural resources because we started as semi-nomadic hunter with little skills and wisdom of use and misuse.
Now we are socially,cuturally,scientifically advanced so, it's the high time to conserve and protect our environment.
