     We have lived on the planet Earth for millions of years.  We have deliberately or innocently caused destruction of Earth over the last few centuries.

   Reasons for deterioration of Earth's ecology are be many. There was no control over anything. People were involved in warfare, chemicals, selfish development without any concern towards other people, animals, birds or other nations. There are obsolete ways of living and commuting which result in pollution. 
Modernization that has taken place over the last few decades has to be re-examined to be converted into a harmless process.  

   It is our mistake to spread pollution and expect someone else to clean it.  Each person must feel like the comics hero "Green Lantern" and take responsibility to guard our planet from destruction. It is absolute selfishness beyond limits and a foolishness to expect someone else to do our job for us.

    Due to our age old practices, rapid unbalanced industrialization and pollution of all types, many species of animals and birds have become extinct. Many species of fish in the seas and oceans have perished. The Snow Mountains around the world and at the poles are melting slowly. The ocean levels are increasing. The land near the oceans is getting submerged gradually. Globally the temperatures are rising. The climate is getting hotter. Further, the monsoon system has changed. Forests are reducing. The seasons are irregular. There are acid rains here and there. Like a lot of people still burn the wood to cook, releasing a lot of carbon monoxide and carbon dioxide. The polythene and plastic bags and materials cause pollution. Flood and cyclones are resulting due to the imbalances in the atmosphere. The greenhouse gases have increased. The overuse of strong fertilisers are destroying the lands.

    We have to use green or biofuels. We must use waste recycling and 4R (reduce, recycle, regenerate, reuse) methods. We need to use more of solar energy powered machines and vehicles. We need to redesign everything that has been damaging Earth's resources.  We need a good method to dispose electronic waste safely.

     Many social sites have raised the awareness about his issue. We celebrate an Earth Day every year for the same reason.

 
  My wish and hope is that everyone thinks that it is his/her own duty to see that we use safe practices protecting our Earth.  Being careless because we are not going live after some years, is inappropriate thinking.
