Sub: Consequences of climatic changes
Through the column of your esteemed newspaper, I want to express my deep concern and anxiety about the climatic changes due to various man-made reasons.
Man is responsible for all the degradation of the environment. It started with the indiscriminate felling of trees. Deforestation has led to innumerable harms to the environment and ecology. Trees provide oxygen and absorb CO2 from the atmosphere. The clearing of forests led to droughts and dry spells. This has resulted in global warming and sudden climatic changes.
Pollution of air, water, and the land is making our living quite miserable. Our seas, rivers, and lakes are also polluted. They have become dumping grounds for human and industrial wastes. Glaciers are melting. So are the ice volumes of the Poles. Man’s unlimited needs and limited natural resources are further aggravating the problem. Unplanned urbanization and industrialization have adversely affected the landscape and climate. Let us check the degradation of the environment and make this planet a pleasant place for human habitation.
Yours faithfully
Radha/Raghu
