Save Environment, Save Yourself
Where are the days when lambs and kids used to frisk and frolic down the verdant valleys? Where are the days when the brooks and streams flowed down the slopes merrily? Where are the green meadows, pastures and terraced fields? Where is the pure blue sky with cotton-like cirrus flitting merrily high above?
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 The sylvan beauty, which was so ubiquitous, has been replaced by factories and mills.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 environment? 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.
If we succeed in implementing all the above mentioned measures, we will be the beneficiaries; our coming generations will be able to live in a purer and healthier environment. This will be our best gift to them, as well as us.
