Amar Ujala Initiative: On World Environment Day, let’s prepare for a better tomorrow, now it’s our turn

Expansion

The most beautiful gift this earth has given us is nature. The existence and development of human civilization rests on the climate of this earth, but in the midst of the rapid development of the last few decades, we have ignored the importance of nature. Nature has been over-exploited. His return is very less.

Two years ago, when the activities came to a halt due to Corona, we saw clean air. I saw clear water. Felt an improvement in oxygen levels. Then nature showed that if it is handled with full heart, it does not take long for it to return to its old form. When the world is writing a new chapter of development every day, then it is the right time to save nature and let it return to its old form. It is “our turn” to prepare for a better tomorrow and return the debt of giving us life air to the earth.

Why is “now our turn” necessary?

This time the World Health Organization has given the theme for World Environment Day – Only One Earth, that is, we have only one earth, which needs to be saved.

It is also necessary to understand “now our turn” because we are exploiting 1.6 times more than the capacity of this earth. Nine out of 10 people are breathing polluted air.

There is a 50% risk that the temperature will rise by 1.5°C in the next two decades.

If the ecosystem deteriorates due to climate change, then it will affect 3.2 billion people, or 40 percent of the world’s population.

If we save only 15 percent of the land on this earth for a better environment, then we will save 60 percent of the species from being endangered.
