In this modern age, despite technological advancements, people fail to realize that religious belief cannot reverse the damages that we have done to the environment. It can happen only when we learn that every one of us, is responsible for the cause of environmental threats that we are facing in the present scenario. So why do I link it up with belief? Even now some humans believe that earth is flat and not a sphere despite all scientific evidences and experiments. So, this still makes us see through the witch craft of belief that is really peaty and for an educated chap it’s really something that is far apart from their knowledge to believe the belief.

So, let’s move on to how we are dually responsible for all the environmental issues. First and foremost, let me ask you a question, why do we prefer to go to hill stations rather than going and exploring somewhere in a desert? Your answer will probably be, I will visit the hill stations because it’s filled with lush and rich greenery and forests, there are a rare species of wildlife seen in hilly regions, than on the rural or urban regions. We feel that the climatic conditions have changed and as a literate we say that it’s because of global warming.

People have made it a fashion to use this term global warming so commonly even a kindergarten kid knows this auspicious term that is in real a threat to all forms of living creatures from marine to land. So what is the primary cause for deforestation, land slide, rise in sea level or melting of glaciers and the most the important depletion of the ozone layer? It all traces back to us humans, we never think of our future nor the present generation, we invent a lot and simultaneously we destroy our own beautiful planet.

Now, there is a slight change in where people think that the earth is about to explode with all the unbearable damage we had done to it. Mother earth, why is earth considered as mother earth, does earth have a gender? No. Its referred to like that with just because when we consider a planet as our mother we tend to avoid mistakes so that we don’t cause much harm to the one we love and who conquer our hearts.

Though we say “prevention is better than cure” we just do not practice what we preach and just as a silent spectator, we watch all the environmental impacts which have resulted in this particular cause to go out of our hands. Even then, we are not taking an initiative further to repair and mechanize the old to a new one. It’s in our hands to remodel the fate of our atmosphere and environment. When the nature gives us more, let’s not misuse it but use it in a wise manner so that we save something for us and our future to enjoy this fruitful life at our beautiful planet. I prefer to conclude by not addressing to save the planet but by saying that it’s our prior responsibility and need of the hour to take initiatives and step ahead to save the planet from its dreadful disaster.

''before cutting don’t a tree think twice that it takes centuries, not years for it to grow into a magnificent one but it just takes seconds to abolish it, a second opinion is also good for nature, not only for health, think and be wise because its nature we need to treasure not money”

“a person who values relationships will have due responsibility towards nature”
