Save the Mother Earth...

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.
