Here I will talk about our environment which is getting deteriorated day by day !!
As the topic itself says, our environment is degraded day by
day. It is we people who should take care of it, as we are living in it, but we
are so much busy in our own lives that we are neglecting our mother earth and
depleting its resources. It is very well said by Henry David Thoreau that “What’s
the use of a fine house if you haven’t got a tolerable planet to put it on?”
Truly said, if we do not protect our planet, then our houses, no matter how big
they are, won’t matter.
I consider myself as one of the threat to the environment as
well. There are many activities done by me which is affecting our earth. Usually
when I charge my mobile phone or laptop, I forget to unplug it after it is
fully charged because of which electricity gets wasted. Talking about some
positive aspects, I switch off the lights when not in use, close the water taps
so that water doesn’t get wasted. Also, when I eat chocolates or any other
thing contained in a plastic wrapper, I throw the wrapper in the garbage can.
There are many other ways in which we can protect our
environment. For e.g., Use of CFL bulbs rather than tubelights which will
consume less electricity. Wasting of water should be reduced and afforestation
should be done. I, being an individual, am just a mere step so awareness must
be created among people, so that, that mere step becomes a big step which will
preserve our global earth. If we take care of small things, the big things will
automatically fall into place. So, if we keep our environment clean and take
care of it, the big problems which are rising day by day like global warming
can be reduced to the very extent.
