Voice of Earth
The Earth, our beloved planet, who supports abundant life on it, is in danger of collapse. Verdant valleys and meadows where lambs and kids used to frisk and frolic have been converted into barren wilderness. The brooks, streams and rivers that flowed down the slopes merrily, have been choked with garbage and their pure potable water turned into toxic poison. Where are the green meadows, arbours, green-belts, forests, pastures and terraced fields? Where is the pure blue sky with cotton-like cirrus flitting merrily high above?
The cankers of urbanization and industrialization have converted the once heaven like towns and cities into hell. The sylvan beauty, which one could see in the suburbs, has been replaced by factories and mills. The skyline that once was dominated by tall trees is an ugly sight of stacks spewing toxic fumes!
The clear rills, rivers, lakes and brooks that were picnic spots have been converted into drainage channels, carrying effluents to the river, which has become a bigger channel carrying the muck to the sea! The entire world is losing its beauty and purity. Earth, our planet that gives us life and to uncountable animal and plant species, is crying and wailing like a dying patient! The earth is lamenting: “Save me if you can; why do you forget that with me you will die also.”
The mankind, a silent witness to this ugly transformation is waiting for some angel to come down and do the cleaning, preserving, and pollution managing! No angel will come for our help. We have created this hell, we ourselves will have to restore and reclaim its lost purity and beauty!
