Earth Day 1970 - 2019: No Time To Waste

EARTH DAY - 2020

T

oday, 22 April 2020 is observed as World Earth Day. Event is accounted for the        control of global warming which is                      increasing year by year across the globe.

According to a new report compiled by a network led by the World Meteorological Organization, the physical signs of climate change, such as increasing land and ocean heat, accelerating sea level rise and melting ice, contributed to making 2019 the second warmest year on record.

The Paris Agreement’s goals require an emissions peak as soon as possible, followed by sharp reductions. Therefore, many see high ambition in 2020 as fundamental if the world is to get on track to 1.5°C. The UN Secretary-General has called upon countries and the private sector to take decisive actions to halt the rise in GHG emissions by 2020, followed by deep cuts  

ORIGINS OF EARTH DAY

Earth Day 1970 gave a voice to an emerging public consciousness about the state of our planet —                                                    

In the decades leading up to the first Earth Day, Americans were consuming vast amounts of leaded gas through massive and inefficient automobiles. Industry belched out smoke and sludge with little fear of the consequences from either the law or bad press. Air pollution was commonly accepted as the smell of prosperity. Until this point, mainstream America remained largely oblivious to environmental concerns and how a polluted environment threatens human health.

 As a need of the hour, USA as a leader of developed nation has took this moment as an intiative to alleviate the increased global warming aa movement on those days. 

Perhaps the essentiality shown towards the begin of the moment as failed o achieve till today. Since the greedy mankind on this earth is  pretty much busy in intruding the nature's resource illicitly against the nature's law to build his delusionary world in the name of progressive move, just to fulfill his greedy needs. Later, which raises as the global phenomenal factors for the countries to follow the same self-delusive changes  in the name of development & technology, by  abuse of natural resources, wild life spicies, tribal societies and so on. 

But, Nature never forgets to play its role to balance its ecology to protect its devasted resource (which includes the MAN....!) too, thereby conducive at various times. Illustratiously one of the natural phenomenal process is forest fire. 

Benefits of wildfires

Although they are feared, naturally occurring wildfires play an integral role in nature. By burning dead or decaying matter, they can return otherwise trapped nutrients to the soil. They also act as a disinfectant, removing disease-ridden plants and harmful insects from an ecosystem
