Read it again and compare it with your development experts and environmental activists warn us that life on earth is on the brink of apocalypse unless drastic steps are not taken. The causes are global warming, climatic change, resource exploitation etc. we are at the verge of mass extinction due to greed towards material comports. Government issues laws which turn out Mera paper work. Last time the government ordered a ban on plastic which is a threat for terrestrial as well as aquatic life, but plastic is still used freely. so the work is not done on the ground level .The government focuses more on roads, parks etc. without least considering the value of human life. On the other hand side, humans too are the reasons for this awaited global destruction .If the catastrophe is to be anticipated ,we have to change ourselves our attitude towards nature.
Nature protects humanity, but the disturbance to it will be a disturbance in the human circle. The best thing to strive for the general good is to inculcate in ourselves the love towards Diversity. A changed attitude may help in contributing to the benefit of humanity.
Consider, for example, the case of Kashmir. A place of eternal beauty with flowers of abundant colors and life giving buzzing breeze, it too is on throes of destruction and without any concern for its inhabitants. Those were the days when people would throng towards the valley to renew their life, energy , but the exploitation of nature, it’s resources continues unabatedly, and no conversation has been ushered so far. In my get together with many of the native farmers, I came across the diminishing status of production here. The political atmosphere has hampered the growth and atmosphere of the valley , bringing in the downfall of the production and farmer earning. On the other hand , climatic changes threaten the life security of the individuals pushing them at the edge of calamity.
Long lockdowns hit the economic sector every day to add to the misfortune, the unchecked sparing of pesticides makes the quality of production decreasing it's demand in the international markets.
The deforestation, another menace today, is sparing rapidly here. People are cutting forests construct new building and many beautiful resorts have fallen prey to such practices. the man is least concerned about the demands of the future generation. The tourists coming every year should have been served with the best possible sources to minimize the pollution. Flora and fauna are receding rapidly due to human infiltration into their habitat. The construction of ROADS and highways is going unchecked . The protection of forests by Japan can be taken as an example to save this greenery here.
The soul and central figure of this discourse is the man who is loaded with modern technology, intentionally and unintentionally, he defiles the ecosystem .The order that nature had bestowed upon it is nowhere seen now; it needs to be highlighted that if ignored, the posterity will have to pay the price of the destruction done to the natural environment. Eliminating pollution must be a priority, just like extreme poverty and hunger. It will be not easy but we can't back down from the challenge. The target we have set is ambitious but achievable and should galvanize action toward achieving environmental development. Our ambition is to work with government and development partners to bring that number to zero.
