“Truth is always the harsh situation, Can not be changed but can be Alter”
No matter how many times we ignore this fact, keep politicizing it or avoid reading or stop thinking. The danger to Environment is gradually increasing. Climate change is on the verge of becoming a climate crisis. The specific scientific and factual proves are showing that we are heading towards Global Apocalypse. Recently in the UN intergovernmental panel on climate change introduce its 6th assessment report in the name of “Physical Sings Basis” which shows the alarming reports of global warming and climate change. We can hold this report as prudent as it is not endorsed by any single government or organization but by many governments around the world under the roof of the United Nations.
For a second keep aside the IPCC report look around yourself, you will notice (through electronic sources or any other available sources) that climate change, diseases, pollution, etc. are significantly slowing themselves. The pattern is showing its tail rapidly. Feeling the hot waves! Days are becoming hotter day by day. Forest fires are taking place frequently, who can forget the painful incident of the Australian forest fire. From New York to New Delhi we witness unprecedented routine floods. Recently an ice burg half the size of Porto Rico were separated in Antarctica due to Global warming. In Florida, the red tidewater was so polluted and toxicated that it witness a massive 600 tons of marine life death last year. The failing government policy and alarming knocks of our future make us think and resort to what we have deformed.
According to IPCC the net damage due to global warming is significant and it will increase in the coming days. It gives red warnings to heatwaves, drought, floods. The UN Chief emphasis it as ‘Code Red” for humanity. The IPCC has cited that global warming will be the main reason for the extinction of species of this century. Because of rising temperature(which is 1.5 to 2 degrees Celsius) by the end of this century, the risk of extinction rate of species alarmingly goes upto 20 to 30 percent. If the temperature increase then most eco-system will struggle. The heatwave will go up, hurricanes will be stronger, rains will not the pattern, floods will bring more destructions, which will eventually affect the humanity, ecosystem, and the economy. The freshwater will shrink. The sea level will rise due to the rapid melting of galaxies in the antarctic oceans by 2050.
The world has witnessed thousands of major events in the last decades. Rather than going to the entire event let’s take a look at the recent event we are going through. Covid 19 pandemic, if we consider it as a Zoonotic(i.e. Viruses transferred from animal to human) then it is the result of deforestation, which increases the encroachment of both the species into each other’s vicinity. On the other hand, if it is man-made(leaked from the lab) then the humans are distorting the natural order. In both aspects, the result occurred because of human environmental conflicts.
According to NASA 2019-2020 was a rough year for our planet. Recently we witness alarming wildfires in the Australian, Siberian, US, West coast, etc. In the Atlantic region, it was the busiest hurricane season. In the specific northwest, the scorching heatwaves clinch 200 lives. Where in Oregon(US) bootleg fire destroyed 4 lakh acres of land and forest. In the Hunan province in china massive food affected millions of people and approximately killed 30 people. Lesley ott researcher of meteorology at NASA Goddard Space Flight Center has said that what we have predicted about the severe effects of climate change this year is the sticking example of how to live among these events.
India is not an exception, in Maharastra we are witnessing continuous unusual rain patterns and multiple foods in the low line areas, as in others of India also. In the mountain and hilly areas, we have witnessed frequent landslides. Sadly where these kinds of incidents happen it cuts the connections with the outer world. A few months earlier in Joshimath(Uttarakhand), many people died due to the glacier burst. Likewise, we have recently witnessed many unnatural events that took place in the coastal and hilly region of India.
We can turn our heads saying these are just only natural even. But are they? Because of excessive use of natural resources. Pollution, greenhouse gasses, excessive us of unsustainable materials is the major reason we are witnessing these apocalyptic impacts.
Though many governments are working on the present situation our P.M. Narendra Modi does miss any chance to talk about it publicly(whenever the opportunity comes) but the pace is slow. Only discussion whenever any such incidence takes place does not work. They must be seriously persistent.
Not just the government we(individually) have to change all our things in and out. Every individual has to play their part in daily life routinely. Perhaps the apocalypse is inevitable but our persistent willingness may postpone or borrow some time. Scientist has also approved that if we act and act fast than we can avoid this deadly impacts.
