Climate change is something we all know is a serious threat to us yet we tend to turn a blind eye to it. We continue living on this planet, completely oblivious that Mother Earth is basically crying for help.
An average of 24 trees are cut down everyday. It seems like a small number, right? 1.263 Million trees have been marked for felling in India in 2019-20. Not a small number anymore. So many trees are being cut down to build factories, skyscrapers, commercial buildings, etc. Business men continue buying plots with beautiful views to cut it all down to build business instead.
The best example I can give you is Aarey Colony. The dispute of the construction of a Metro Shed in Array has been going on since 2017. After so many years of fighting to save the Array Forest, it was recently declared that it will be cut down for the construction of the Metro Shed. It was like taking one step forward and two steps back. In a day, 2000 trees of Array were cut down and it will continue getting worse.
How can we make it better? How can we return to a green planet?
1) Plant as many trees as possible.
2) RRR. Reduce, Reuse and Recycle.
3) Try using environmentally friendly products.
4) Ensure proper use of natural resources.
5) Switch off all electronics after use.
The planet is suffering. We are very close to facing disasters. We all need to remember that we're living on this planet together. Everyone must try to make this planet green once again.
