Transcending Concern For Planet Earth
Earth is the uniquest planet. The first and foremost reason is it is the only known planet that is home to myriads of life forms. No other planet in the solar system or anywhere else in the space supports animal or plant life like the earth.
Earth is quite similar to other planets the way it has evolved out of the nothingness over eons; but what makes it different from them is the complex life forms and its hospitable atmosphere and environment. Everything on earth supports life. Land, air, water, flora, fauna, minerals, etc. all support life.
However, man’s recklessness, greed and indifference to the needs of the planet, have literally made its condition exactly like a patient needing immediate treatment. The illness of pollution has reached its final stage. If the intensive care treatment is not given to it, it may collapse.
The canker of industrialization has converted every town and city into hell. The sylvan beauty, which was so ubiquitous, has been replaced by factories and mills. The skyline that once was dominated by tall pines is an ugly sight of stacks spewing toxic fumes! The problems of Global warming, melting glaciers, decreasing forest covers, dwindling species of plants and animals, depleting ozone layer, etc. loom large on the future of mankind.
The clear rills 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. 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!
How can we prevent this deterioration and degradation of our planet? The task of conserving and preserving it is quite Herculean. The only solution to the critical environmental issues is people’s mass participation in saving the environment. Mass forestation drive, and stopping the use of fossil fuels altogether can solve this problem.
There are other alternative fuels available. The government must act strictly. There should be a ban on fossil fuels. The government must create forest belt near every city or town. Toxic emissions of industries must be strictly regularized. Installation of toxic smoke and effluents treatment plants must be mandatory at every industrial unit. With these measures strictly and immediately implemented the environmental health will improve considerably.
We must save earth for our own survival. Do you think we will be able to live even for a second if the earth dies?
The Earth is the only planet known to human beings so far, that holds life forms. It is an amazing collection of living flora and fauna that are able to survive, because of earth’s optimum living conditions.
But as humans progress, they leave behind a very terrifying trail of pollution, degradation and waste, caused by recklessness and greed, to produce more and to be the leader of everything. Greenhouse gases, industrial effluents, non-degradable plastics etc. are the outcome, threatening our earth.
This unending race, is slowly taking us all closer to destruction. Unless mankind makes a very conscious and serious effort to curb pollution, degradation and waste, this destruction is not very far.
