A lot of our school projects aim at generating awareness among students on the critical environmental situation in the world. The question that often comes up is: Why are we spending so much time on spreading awareness rather than taking concrete action on environmental issues?

In recent years, I have participated in many quizzes and natural olympiads, and have realized the immense importance of environmental awareness.

One must first understand what the term environmentalism and environmental awareness means. According to Pachamama Alliance, “Environmentalism is an ideology that evokes the necessity and responsibility of humans to respect, protect, and preserve the natural world from its anthropogenic afflictions” and “environmental awareness is to understand the fragility of our environment and the importance of its protection.” It further states that “promoting environmental awareness is an easy way to become an environmental steward and participate in creating a brighter future for our children. By teaching our friends and family that the physical environment is fragile and indispensable we can begin fixing the problems that threaten it.”

I feel that environmental awareness make us realize the pressing need to take immediate action to stop harming the environment and start restoring the damage we have done to it. Unless there is awareness, there is no action – or at least no proper action. And this action must start from the individual level and spread through the people and organizations we know.

Once we have a thorough understanding of the environmental issues such as deforestation, environmental pollution, water crisis, global warming and climate change, loss of biodiversity etc. every one of our actions will come out of a place of concern for our surroundings, out of love for mother nature, out of the willingness to contribute towards sustainable development and make a positive change in the world.

For example, according to the World Bank, roughly 163 million Indians lack access to safe drinking water, 210 million Indians lack access to improved sanitation, 21% of communicable diseases are linked to unsafe water and 500 children under the age of five die from diarrhea each day in India. More than half of the rivers in India are highly polluted with numerous others at levels considered unsafe by modern standards. The waters of the Yamuna, Ganga and Sabarmati flow the dirtiest with a deadly mix of pollutants, both hazardous and organic. Knowing these statistics will make us remember to turn off the sink while brushing our teeth, not to leave the bucket to fill unattended or not to just throw a glass of water into the basin to fill up ‘new’ water.

Another issue is that, a lot of us have not experienced the adverse effects of environmental degradation due to humans first-hand. For example, most of us who have the access to read this blog probably have not had to walk a mile in the scorching heat to fetch a bucket of water and walk a mile back home with the weight. In all probability, our crops have not perished totally due to the droughts this year. Our homes have not been cut down to fulfill some more advanced species’ purpose. Our habitats are not melting into the sea, and the sea is not rising a foot higher and drowning our native island home. But we can feel the summer heat, due to global warming and climate change, right? It is affecting us too, and can destroy all life on Earth, no matter how long we turn on our ACs and worsen the condition even more, or get potable running water at the turn of a tap in our sinks and basins. Therefore, environmental awareness also has to do with empathy.

This environmental awakening must happen at the school level in the brain development stages of an individual, so that it remains as a fundamental learning and aspect that comes into every act of his. As one person acts out of such environmental consciousness, others around him also become aware and this goes on, ultimately making a great difference. One must also come in close contact with the natural environment which has become hard for us these days, to understand actually how closely we are all associated and how much we are dependent on it.

Here are a few ways that can help you to spread environmental awareness in and around yourself:

* Stay up-to-date on environmental news. The Times of India’s environment news is a great source to do so.

* Read books on nature and environment.

* Take part in environmental seminars, campaigns and movements

* Participate in natural olympiads and environmental quizzes

* Subscribe to magazines on natural history and environment
