Factors like urbanisation, replacement of ventilators with air conditioners in houses, radiation from mobile towers, pollution, use of insecticides and pesticides in farms and emission of harmful gases are considered the main reasons that led to a drastic decline in the population of sparrows.
Answer:
Emphasising the crying need to conserve house sparrows, conservationist Mohammed Dilawar says, “The current generation is so much surrounded by technology that they have forgotten about nature. The indifference caused by a lack of emotional connect has pushed these birds to the edge of extinction.”
Explanation:
The house sparrow that was declared the ‘State Bird of Delhi’ in 2012 is edging towards extinction due to the lack of an emotional connect, says conservationist Mohammed Dilawar.
Mr. Dilawar, who started the practice of observing March 20 as World Sparrow Day in 2010, said that “mindless urbanisation” was leading to a loss of the birds’ natural habitats.
