Answer:

Human beings are the creations of nature. They drew everything needed for their very survival from nature. The air they breathe, the water they drink, the food they eat and thousands of articles they use daily-all come from nature. Yet, strangely enough, man keeps a hostile attitude towards nature. Conquest of nature is the expression which is often used to denote man’s activities like space exploration, taming the rivers, etc. which sums up man’s attitude towards nature.

Our earth is a unique planet. It is one of the eight planets in the solar system in the Milky Way.

It is the only planet known to have conditions suitable for life. In no other planet such conditions or any signs of life existing or to have existed in the past have been found. Nature has created this unique planet for the existence and survival of human beings. The conditions prevailing on the earth are suitable for our comfortable living. First of all, the distance from the sun is such that we get warmth to sustain life.

The scientists believe that nearness to the sun by a few thousand kilometres would have raised earth’s temperatures to such a degree that no life could survive. Similarly, if our earth had been away from the sun by a few thousand kilometres, this would have created freezing temperatures. Apart from warmth which created conditions suitable for life, air has been provided in abundance for human beings and animals to breathe.

Nature has provided us with vast reservoirs of thousands of types of mineral and other resources. But we are using these resources with such a speed that the day is not far when many of them will be totally exhausted. Oil which is refined to make petroleum products has already shown signs of being exhausted in some basins. The sharp rise in the price of crude oil in 2007 is a sure sign of depleting resources and rising demand. Burning oil in cars and industries is also causing pollution. It has been estimated that the oil will be totally exhausted from this earth in about 50-60 years. Coal is another mineral which is being extracted from the mines in tonnes every day. It is being used as a fuel in several industries. Burning coal is the chief cause of emitting greenhouse gases which have resulted in global warming.

The earth’s mean temperature has risen over the years. This has caused the glaciers and snow on the mountains to melt- causing various problems. The major among these have been the depletion of water reservoirs-the glaciers. The water formed by melting of ice is fast flowing into the seas through rivers and streams. Several coastal areas and islands are submerging in sea water. Global warming has brought adverse climatic change in almost every continent.
