The world environment day has been around since 1974 and according the UN it is the most important day for encouraging worldwide awareness and action for protecting the environment.
So, do you think talking about the environment for one day is enough? No! It is not!
We must do our part to protect our environment everyday. Earth is our only place to stay. How can we exist if it’s not in a good state?
We, Humans are fully dependent on natural water supplies, and on fertile soil in which to plant our crops. The oceans provide not only seafood but massive stores for greenhouse gases. Life saving medicines are developed from genetic materials of countless natural species and our trees protect us from the harmful effects of excessive carbon dioxide.
Every species plays a vital role in preserving this natural balance. Just like the global health, our environment is in crisis too. Do you know how?
We are losing species at a rate of 1000 times greater than at any other time in recorded human history. Ecosystems are being destroyed in large numbers, with wetlands disappearing three times faster than forests, and already we have lost a third of the planets forest cover. Marine life and fisheries are increasingly threatened as the ocean loses oxygen driven by climate change and pollution.
Global issues such as climate changes, dwindling natural resources, deforestation and pollution are worsening day by day driven by human impacts.
We must take care of the environment which has sustain us so far in the earth.
We have to remember that in order to conserve our environment we need actions that stretches far beyond just one day. It is essential that we make environmental awareness an active part our lives, and educating others on its importance too.
So what are you waiting for? Do your part to the nature! Lets work towards the goal off eco system restoration. Let’s go from exploiting nature to reviving it.
