Green Earth, Green Environment

Nature has always been like our mother for nurtured living being as it furnishes us with its resources for our survival. Without nature there is no potential of life to survive on earth. We should not ignore nature. It is God’s gift to us. We all should ensure that the plants and flowers are lush and grassy. It is said to be the mother for us because it takes care of us and as it grants us with food to eat like legumes and fruits. Mahatma Gandhiji once said ‘Nature has enough for everybody’s need but not for their greed.’ This quote is very inspirational for everyone.

It elaborates that nature provides more than enough for survival for those who are in need but if people waste it then the nature does not provide. In many cultures, it is seen as a powerful force that governs the natural world and its responsible for its balance and harmony. It is often associated with fertility, growth and renewal. We ourselves have been the problem for the devastation of nature. Many things have been destroying our nature, which are industrialisation, deforestation and global warming etc. These things have turned environment unstable and ecological balance is destroyed. We can save the nature by reducing waste. There should be laws against deforestation, and extensive deforestation, we should follow sustainable measure like carpooling, rainwater harvesting, becoming sensitised to this issue, by overcoming the damage we have done, by helping mother nature regain its natural glory.

Nature has a powerful transformative power which is responsible for the functioning of life on earth. It is essential to flourish so its our duty to conserve it for the future generations.
