Human race is trying to play a “good Samaritan” role towards the environment, by wiping out the serious ecological damage caused. The advancement in technologies and sophistications, in some way or the other has adversely created an irreparable damage to the planet. Now it is Nature’s turn to take revenge and self balance the ecosystem. Once Nature gets furious, mankind is thinking of using the same technology to try and reverse the effects of the damage.
A common public may think, “what damage I have done to the environment?”. Every one of us, whether knowingly or unknowingly repetitively creating damages, as part of our life style. All our innovations and technological advancements are flawed. What once thought was an advancement or innovation, is actually self destructive ideas. Human race has undermined our own existence. In every action of us, we are speeding the “time bomb” of mass destruction.
How exactly, the damage done?
The Green House Gases (GHG) namely Carbon-di-oxide,Nitrous Oxide,Methane and Flourocarbons in the atmosphere are responsible for balancing the Earth’s temperature.All our manufacturing process,Transportation and Living, needs either Power, Heating or Cooling…..results in emission of Carbon and other green house gases.Due to the excess release of these gases into the atmosphere, the concentration of GHG is increasing, causing the earth to warm in excess. The warming in turn, causes huge natural catastrophies like floods, droughts, increase in Sea Level, earth quakes and more surprisingly increased prevalence of insects, etc…etc….leads to mass destruction.
What needs to be done?
Try and reverse the GHG emissions by reducing the Carbon-footprints(amount of Carbon release).Implement innovative sustainability ideas into our life styles.We need to find alternative sources of power from renewable energy sources like sun light, wind energy, wave energy and all known natural resources.Governments’ need to implement strict laws to govern the carbon footprint.Awareness to be given for common public.
Where are we?
The idea of implementing sustainability needs excess money to be spent, makes the process very slow. Even then the ideology is spread through various fields of development, the process of reversing the effect seems to be a big leap ahead.
If all of us didn’t act now and be responsible to the environment, the future of our plant remains a “?”
