The earth is called the ‘blue planet’ and it is the only one which sustains life but given

the rate
of anthropogenic exploitation, how long can we get on with our selfish attitude towards the
environment?
The kind of damage that has been inflicted is palpable and the need has been felt to save
environment sooner rather than later. The effect of global warming, the increase of
greenhouses gases, the depletion of the ozone layer and the alarming levels of pollution are
all an indicator of an impending catastrophe. Until and unless we know how to save
environment and take remedial measure, our future is in grave hands.
What are the remedial measures to save environment?
Too many people complain that the damage is beyond the repair point, however, it is better to
put an effort rather the sit and whine. The environment is capable of healing and all we need
is to give it a push in the right direction in order to save environment.
1. Sustainable Living:
It is important to understand and imbibe the concept of sustainable living. It is the art of living
wherein you use the current resources keeping in mind the needs of the future generation.
We have to be mindful of how what and why we are consuming especially when it comes to
the natural and non-renewable resources.
2. Tree Plantation to Save Environment:
First of all, we need to come with great afforestation and reforestation schemes to save
environment. It is the depletion of the green cover that has done the highest damage.
3. Pollution Mitigation:
The next thing one needs to do immediately to save environment is to cut down the pollution
level. From the controversial ‘odd-even’ schemes in New Delhi to the policy of banning
firecrackers or bike and carpooling, every step counts.
The Conclusion:
So if you want to save environment, you need to be prepared to put in the best of efforts. It is
the cumulative effort over a collective period of time which can help the environment heal
again.
