World Environment Day

 

Let us heal nature as nature heals us- open your spirits, keep it clean, serve it nutrition, make it beautiful, develop a relationship of love and care.’

What kind of planet do we humans wish to have? This is a question we need to answer ourselves. No one can teach us what we most need to know about nature and how to value it. We ourselves need to know how honest we need to be in our thoughts and actions.

Nature provides us all with so many wonderful and useful things from beautiful sights to food and shelter, and awareness to maintain and sustain life on this planet. Mother Nature works relentlessly to ensure that life exists with its variety in abundance. As a result, our behaviour must support positive outcomes on nature for it to thrive and survive too. The plenty in nature is directly proportional to plenteous in our lives. However, unintentionally, we have made the most detrimental impact on the environment. Life is chemistry, and a chain of bio-chemical achievements are taking place to make life hassle-free. Continuous efforts are taking place all over the world to develop newer and cleaner energy sources to power our homes, run our cars, and light up the night. The combined efforts have been showing progress in many ways yet, the key point is the building of good chemistry between nature and us.

 Care for the environment

The importance of caring for the environment is paramount for many reasons. In the first place, we need to make sure that we leave this place better for the next generations as it would not be reasonable to hand them something we have damaged. With that in mind, here are a few ways to follow to save our environment:

·       Let us educate ourselves.

·       Walk more, bike more, and drive less.

·       Follow the three Rs of Restoration- Reduce, Reuse, Recycle

·       Avoid Single-Use Plastic items.

·       Shop wisely, stop accepting plastic/polythene bags, always carry your reusable shopping bags.

·       Repurposing things like plastic boxes, bottles, and bags, for storing groceries or used as small wastebaskets.

·       Don’t send chemicals into waterways. Choose nontoxic chemicals to clean your homes and offices.

·       Plant trees as many as possible, nurture them and donate them as they are energy savers, suppliers of clean air, conserve water and combat climate problems.

·       Have Bright Light Ideas- Use energy efficient light bulbs to decorate the earth.

·       Volunteer for cleanups in the community too. Keep your earth as clean as your own home or office.

·       Reduce your desires of hoarding make donations liberally for earth’s cause.

 Together we should work on the restoration of our environment for a better world. ‘World Environment Day’ is a reminder that we must take good care of our surroundings. Let us right away start our actions to make our planet a greener and healthier place for us to enjoy life.

Let us pledge to become more responsible, accountable, and answerable for our own actions. Happy World Environment Day!!!

COVID‐19 and Children

Did you notice that the letter ‘C’ has shot to prominence and brought a sea of change in the lives of children through this Covid -19? Millions of children have been adversely affected by the COVID‐19 pandemic. They have become vulnerable and sensitive to the changes around them which they had never seen or experienced. Words like coronavirus, cases, confirmed, confinement, containment, curfew, chloroquine, cemetery, crematorium have suddenly been most heard and used changing their world completely. The closing down of schools has impacted them by confining them within the four walls of their houses and exposing them to the uncertainties, traumas of seeing the loved ones in the grip of the fatal disease and perhaps also losing at them at times. Fears, anxieties, and uncertainties have surrounded them, leaving them to learn some very heavy lessons.   The innocent souls who were opening their wings to take flight have been severed by this pandemic. Isolation, physical distance, a...
