Redemption of our present home (Mother

Earth )

Introduction:
The earth is home for all of us and it is our responsibility to ensure
that it is sustained and minded. Earth has been termed “mother
nature” or “mother earth” basically because of its productive,
nurturing and life-giving nature, which is complimentary to the
roles of a mother. The earth is kind to humans but humans are
ungrateful and they return unkindness to it by destroying it.

Destruction of nature was first observed in early 19th century and

it has been progressive and extensive such that campaigns like
“save mother earth” have been initiated. The destruction in nature
began with the industrialization and modernization, whose
processes caused a change in the physical and biological nature
of the earth and the ecosystem.

Through modernization, natural habitats have been destroyed in

attempts to come up with modern structures. Pollution is generally
due to human activity. Since humans cause the destruction of
Mother Earth, they should be equally responsible for saving
Mother Earth.

The Importance of Saving Mother Earth:

In as much as the destruction of earth affects the animate and the
inanimate objects on the surface of the earth and it is important
that nature is restored. The earth is all we have, without it, life
would not be imaginable.

The beauty of nature is what we live for as humans. Imagine the

sunrise you smile at in the morning gone or the oceans waves

that give you peace all gone? It would be very ugly out there and
nothing to admire as nature is gone.

In the campaign to save mother earth, the ultimate goal is to

sustain the remaining nature and restore those that are
destructed.

Human life is dependent on breathing fresh and clean air. The air
pollution that is currently trending shows how much contamination
is in the air we breathe. Planting of trees is a way of restoring
clean air because more oxygen will be released to the
atmosphere by trees as they take in carbon dioxide.

It is important to save the earth because of the provisions that

help sustain animal and human life especially food and water.
Water pollution is a worrying situation because water is an
essential life sustaining provision of mother earth.

Ways of Saving Mother Earth:

Efforts made to save mother earth are focused on restoration of
nature and mitigation of destruction of nature. In preventing
further destruction through pollution of the environment, policies
like recycling of all things that can be recycled have been
implemented globally.

Things like plastic bags and bottles are not biodegradable and
therefore disposal is discouraged that is why emphasis on
recycling has been made. Conservation of environmental
resources through conservative measures. The conservative
measures include sparingly using energy and water.

The other way of saving mother earth is through education so that

people are aware of the importance of nature, which will motivate
them to contribute in the process. It is important to participate in

the cleaning actions whereby we do not throw away trash and

pick up any trash we find laying around inappropriately.

Planting trees is a very effective way of saving the earth because

through trees, oxygen is replenished, rain formation is enabled
and soil is protected from erosion. Wildlife protection is also a way
of preserving nature because wildlife forms a part of the beautiful
nature and their existence is important.

The environment occupies majority of the earth and its destruction

has been massive over the years. Environmental pollution affects
the ecosystem and causes adverse effects to animate and
inanimate objects on earth. Environment can be saved by
controlling and preventing pollution. The cleaning act can also be
implemented so as to get rid of pollutants that are already in the
environment.

Undoing the damage of pollution of the environment is a tasking

responsibility that is mandatory for the general wellbeing of the
earth inhabitants. Through the process of restoring nature,
challenges are faced especially in those natural aspects that are
somehow impossible to restore e.g., the ozone layer.

The ozone layer is destroyed yet restoration does not seem to be

made a reality.

Conclusion:
In conclusion, the journey to save mother earth is still at its early
stages but through the strategies that have been put in place, it is
possible to restore Mother Earth and protect it. In the quest to
save the earth, further destruction should be prevented so that the
efforts made have an impact. The earth basically has everything
that sustains our existence and that is why it is important to save
it from extinction.
