For the first time in human history, there is a growing worldwide consciousness that the earth itself is a living organism-an enormous being of which we are parts. It has its own needs and vital processes which need to be respected and preserved.

Do you know that environment is degrading because of humans only? We are the only ones who are not caring the environment and destroying it. In the zoo at Lusaka, Zambia, there is a cage where the notice reads, “The world’s most dangerous animal.” Inside the cage there is no animal but a mirror where you see yourself. This means that we are the world’s most dangerous animals.

Every human being in this world shares his hand in degrading the environment and exploiting the earth’s natural resources. Like wastage of water, deforestation for making malls, houses etc., are the common things that take place daily in our life. If we try to save the environment, then we can make not only our life beautiful but also other’s life beautiful. We are snatching this earth from our future generations. This should be stopped in order to make their life beautiful.

We are on this earth not only to make our life beautiful but also other’s life beautiful. The survival is not just of the people but of the planet. The environmental problem does not necessarily signal our demise, it is our passport for the future.

In the words of Mr. Lester Brown, “We have not inherited this earth from our forefathers; we have borrowed it from our children.” I think that you understood its meaning. It means that we are destroying this earth and we are snatching this from our children. According to the calculations, this world can destroy after 20-25 years which is very near. So to protect this earth we have to take several steps.

This is not just for us but for others also. I chose this topic to make you aware about the problems of our earth which is in danger. If you can do a single small work to protect the earth then it can be a great contribution for us, for you and for this world. Your single step towards the protection of earth can save this earth.

Give me your suggestions for this topic and tell me what you think about this. Are you doing any tasks to save this earth? Share any if you have done.
