'Save Mother Earth'
Everyone knows that Earth is like our mother. It nourishes us by giving us all sorts of things we need to live comfortably and happily. The Earth takes a long time to replenish the resources that we take from it but we exploit these resources more quickly than it replenishes them. In doing so, we are moving towards our own destruction. Today, people complain of scorching heat, respiratory problems and ill health. It is time to pause and consider the cause of all these problems. Global temperature is increasing due to environmental pollution which is the ’gift’ of galloping population, unplanned industrialization, haphazard and faulty town planning. Indiscriminate falling of trees and deforestation to utilize more land for commercial purposes other than agricultural purposes has added to the problem. Emission of poisonous gases and smoke of vehicles and the industrial waste has destroyed the purity of air.
Under these circumstances, it is essential to create awareness among
all the people to keep the environment clean and pure. Vacant spaces may be turned into productive
green farms, not the farm-houses. To control traffic, car pooling must be encouraged so that
the emission level of smoke decreases. We can arrange mass rallies to create public awareness and
force the concerned authorities to take strict action against those persons who are found involved in
the activities which adversely affecting our environment. We all should adopt
these preventive measures to save our earth
