the risks and impacts of climate change”. This agreement also doesn’t have any
force mechanism. These are some very famous steps toward the environment
protection or we can say to stop climate change.
COVID-19:
This virus is very new for the common people but for the scientist it is not, because
this is not a new or random virus that attacked and causing problem for all over the
world. According to reports, in the late 1920 this kind of virus was reported in the
North America and again in 1931 Arthur Schalk and M.C. Hawn presented their
first report on this and they described a new respiratory infection and this had been
mentioned the mortality rate of this infection is very high. But the human corona
virus was comes in reality in late 1960s, in 1961 British Medical Research Council
finds a very unique common cold that cannot be treated by the normal medicines
and procedure and this virus was inactivated by ether. A very large animal corona
virus have been identified but in 2003 a human corona virus has been identified
named SARS-COV, HCoV NL63, in 2004 HKUN1, MERS-CoV in 2013 and
again this virus again comes in picture as SARS-CoV-2 in 2020.
According to researchers this virus again started spreading its wing from Wuhan,
China and it is also said by the researcher this virus started spreading from the
Wuhan seafood market and some of this reports also said that this virus started
infecting human being may be because of bat eating, it is a kind of zoonotic
disease. The first case of corona virus was reported on the 12 December 2019 and
WHO declared it as, a global health emergency on 31 January 2020 and a
pandemic on 11 march 2020.

CONCLUSION:
By the facts and research we can eailsy say that there are some efforts is being
done on the international platform to tackle this environment problem but it is not
sufficient. We have to take very major steps to solve this problem because our or
any countrie’s development is worthless without the environmental development
and we should remember that we are still living on the earth and we have to take
care of it. This virus has been taken many lives and we don’t how many more it
will take.
Every country is spending a lot of money in their security area, in the development
of their econonomy, for the exlporation of the universe and searching lives on
other planet etc. I am not saying these things are not important but why they are
not giving importance to this environment ? why they are not saving the lives of
the people who are living on this planet?
By some fact we also know that the people of China , Vaitnam, and in many other
countries are eating Dogs, Bats, Snaks, cows,buffalos etc. we all know because of
these, zoonotic disease increasing in all over the world and COVID-19 is one of
the major effect of this. Why are no rules to stop them? Why we cannot beat a dog
but we can eat it? We need to think very deeply on these topics.
Amendments are very important in Environmental laws and policy, not only for a
country but it should be for all over the world because a single country cann’t
change this situation every country have to participate in it and their tight
implementation is also important .
