World Soil Day 2022

Be the Solution to Soil Pollution!!!

World Soil Day 05 December 2022:

SOILS: WHERE FOOD BEGINS

Did you know that there are more living organisms in a tablespoon of soil than people on Earth? Soil is a world made up of organisms, minerals, and organic components that provides food for humans and animals through plant growth.
Like us, soils need a balanced and varied supply of nutrients in appropriate amounts to be healthy. Agricultural systems lose nutrients with each harvest, and if soils are not managed sustainably, fertility is progressively lost, and soils will produce nutrient-deficient plants.
Soil nutrient loss is a major soil degradation process threatening nutrition. It is recognized as being among the most critical problems at a global level for food security and sustainability all around the globe.
Over the last 70 years, the level of vitamins and nutrients in food has drastically decreased, and it is estimated that 2 billion people worldwide suffer from lack of micronutrients, known as hidden hunger because it is difficult to detect.
Soil degradation induces some soils to be nutrient depleted losing their capacity to support crops, while others have such a high nutrient concentration that represent a toxic environment to plants and animals, pollutes the environment and cause climate change.
World Soil Day 2022 (#WorldSoilDay) and its campaign "Soils: Where food begins" aims to raise awareness of the importance of maintaining healthy ecosystems and human well-being by addressing the growing challenges in soil management, increasing soil awareness and encouraging societies to improve soil health.

International Day of Persons with Disabilities 2022.

Today is International Day of Persons with Disabilities.

International Day of Persons with Disabilities 2022: Theme
The theme of International Day of Persons with Disabilities, this year, is “Transformative solutions for inclusive development: the role of innovation in fuelling an accessible and equitable world“. The 2022 celebration will focus on the need for innovative solutions to help create an inclusive developmental model to aid people with disabilities.

In 1976, the United Nations General Assembly (UNGA) proclaimed 1981 as the International Year of Disabled Persons (IYDP). On February 6, 1981, US President Ronal Reagan did the same. Then the UNGA declared 1983-1992 as the decade of Disabled Persons. The adoption of December 3 as the International Day of Persons with Disabilities happened during the UNGA’s 37th plenary meeting, on October 4, 1992.

The observance of the Day aims to promote an understanding of disability issues and mobilize support for the dignity, rights and well-being of persons with disabilities. The day takes place annually and focuses on a different issue each year.
Nowadays International Day of People with Disability seeks to increase awareness of gains to be derived from the integration of persons with disabilities in every aspect of political, social, economic and cultural life.
A disability may be physical, cognitive, mental, sensory, emotional, developmental, or some combination of these. A disability may be present from birth or occur during a person's lifetime. “Disability” is an umbrella term, covering impairments, activity limitations and participations restrictions. An individual may also qualify as disabled if he or she has had an impairment in the past or is seen disabled based on a personal or group standard or norm.

The practice of collecting and burning leaves falling from trees in the valley, common these days is a very sad healthwise hazardous and environmentally damaging practice.

The practice of collecting and burning leaves falling from trees in the valley, common these days is a very sad healthwise hazardous and environmentally damaging practice. It causes a lot of smoke and releases a whole lot of pollutants in the air, causing cough, chest pain wheezing etc esp among children and the elderly. The practice, very common in large parts of the valley also causes heating of the air cover and leads to melting of glacier ice caps. We make a desparate appeal to the people to avoid the practice of leaf burning and look for alternative and environment friendly sources of heat for kangries etc. We also appeal to the government . to make proper and sufficient provision of free coal for the poor,  well beforw the advance of winters so that these people dont have to depend on leaves as a source of charcoal for kangries for winters,

Wildlife conservation and education.

Wildlife Conservation and  Education!

September 12,2022: Conservation means to prevent waste of a resource. Similarly, wildlife conservation can be defined as the practice of protecting animal species and their habitats. This emphasis on habitat is crucial, as without their habitat, animals are dangerously exposed to harm and die easily.

Wildlife plays an essential role in the ecological and biological processes that are yet again significant to life. The normal functioning of the biosphere depends on endless interactions amongst animals, plants, and microorganisms.

Every educational body must conduct workshops, seminars and symposia to educate society about the importance of wildlife conservation in modern world. Children and even elders must be taught how to conserve wildlife keep their surroundings clean and also how to maintain proper hygiene and it’s importance.

Wildlife helps in maintaining the balance of nature. Killing of carnivores leads to an increase in the number of herbivores which in turn affect the forest vegetation, thus due to lack of food in the forest they come out from the forest to agriculture land and destroy our crops...

Therefore, once the equilibrium is disturbed it leads to many problems. By conserving wildlife, diversity in the environment can be conserved. According to some scientists an ecosystem with more diversity is more stable.

We should save wild animals as we have countless benefits and importance in our daily lives....

These are some of the steps to make a healthy and prosperous wildlife society . We not only need to read it but also implement it in our daily life and make sure people around us do the same...

HAPPY WORLD NATURE CONSERVATION DAY.

HAPPY WORLD NATURE CONSERVATION DAY.

Every year, World Nature Conservation Day is celebrated on 28 July to create awareness among people about the importance and significance of natural resources. Due to the increase in the human population, natural resources have been compromised to critically dangerous levels. Many challenges are posed to the environment by humans, some of which are – global warming, environmental pollution, destruction of flora & fauna, and deforestation. Therefore, we have to stop the misuse of natural resources, otherwise, a day will come when our future generations will be deprived of essential natural resources because nothing is everlasting.
Earth’s natural resources include air, minerals, plants, soil, water, and wildlife. Conservation is the care and protection of these resources so that they can be preserved for future generations. It includes maintaining diversity of species, genes, and ecosystems, as well as functions of the environment, such as nutrient cycling.
Conservation is similar to preservation, but while both relate to the protection of nature, they strive to accomplish this task in different ways. Conservation seeks the sustainable use of nature by humans, for activities such as hunting, logging, or mining, while preservation means protecting nature from human use.

“Conservation means the wise use of the earth and its resources for the lasting good of manking” – Gifford Pinchot

Preservation of the natural resources or natural environment is essential for maintaining community sustainability. Our regions  is naturally wealthy of resources, but maximum  people don't know how to conserve and protect the natural resources that we all have, we should plant tress, know how to segregate garbage, conserve water, conserve, using of electricity, don't throw chemicals or toxic waste in the water bodies, learn how to be an eco-friendly. Planting trees, trees has a big role to the environment because it'll  help to give fresh air, helps to absorb water and help to prevent the floods,  Reduce, Reuse, Recycle,  by means of that it conserve natural resources and landfill space. Conserving water and energy, the less water and energy we use the greater we preserve. We shouldn't throw chemical toxic waste anywhere especially in the green zones or water bodies , it can cause to kill the living creatures in the water bodies and cause a harmful effect on the people who living near on that area.
