We and Our Environment...
There is too much need to talk about the environment. But what's the benefit? People just say, "Plant more and more trees, keep trees alive" Now it has become very common to say, no matter who speaks, it doesn't matter to some people, right ?? During this time of the Corona, due to the lockdown we have came to know, how much pollution has been reduced, and we also know the reasons why it has been reduced. We see this globally, but in our own personal lives, how much waste do we do, how much pollution do we create by our own, how much carbon do we emit in the environment?? Have you ever asked yourself ?? If not, start asking now. Look, we need to measure our daily carbon footprint, think about how much pollution we were doing before, and now and also we can think about how we can reduce it by avoiding some small things by which we are polluting. I mean, suppose, if you want to go somewhere, it's 3-4 km to get there, but then you can go by a bicycle, or you can cross it easily by walking, This will reduce your carbon footprint and also polluting the environment. In our Maharashtra, there are no garbage bins outside the shops, or there is no facility to throw garbage on the road, then garbage falls on the road. The most of the garbage includes plastics and plastic is deadly to animals. Now, even if you are thinking to burning it, there is so much harmful gases emission, and still there is pollution, so we have to think about how to reduce the use of plastic.

Most importantly, we sometimes buy more than we need. Ask yourself before buying such things, do I really need this thing, packet or anything that you really Don't need at that moment?? Excessive items, packets, including food. Food is very important for each and everyone of us, and is not available where it is too much needed, and people have a habit of wasting food. Now you may be thinking that even if we don't take those things, whether it's plastic, or clothes, or something else, someone else will take it, then there will be pollution and so on, then, what's the difference ?? In fact, this question is often asked by children. But one thing is for sure, if you want to bring any change in this society, you have to start from yourself. You may also be wondering, what difference does it make by me alone ?? It makes a difference, it makes a big difference. We have to think and implement this change in ourselves in the society as well. Yes, it is very difficult, but not impossible. We can't completely eliminate pollution, but ofcourse we can do a little bit to reduce it.
Come on then, for whom are you waiting?? Let's start, from today, from now... If you want to measure your carbon footprint, or if you want to check how much your carbon footprint has decreased in a day, you can install app on your phone, and you can check whether it's working for you or not.. You can stop yourself doing the waste, and also tell other people in the society to not do the waste...
All the best..! And thanks...! 😇
