Water Pollution

Hey there everybody!
Today's post is an article touching the feelings of a lover of nature on the topic 'How Are We Polluting Water'.
So, here it is.

💦''HOW ARE WE POLLUTING WATER''💦

By: Preksha Mahajan

Water which is too precious is not only being wasted but also polluted excessively. Garbage, chemicals, etc. all contribute to water pollution. Let's see the true fact.

In this industrialized era, one will find 'River polluted; marine life dead' common in the newspaper. It's because of the water pollutants like: detergents, chemicals, non-biodegradable polythene bags, untreated wastes, etc. that pollute the water and making it toxic. Whenever harmful substances are discharged in water making it unfit for consumption or usage, it is referred to as water pollution. Water pollution has many adverse effects on human as well as marine life. When contaminated water is drunk, it causes many diseases like: typhoid, cholera, jaundice, etc. and many infections. Marine life in rivers also suffer a lot and when a river lacks in marine plants and animals, it is considered as 'dead'. So, all we as citizens can do is to avoid throwing wastes, garbage, chemicals, fecal matter, bathing, etc. Reuse, recycle, reduce, refuse should be our mantra. Laws for industrial units should be made by the government and followed seriously. After all, small contributions can make huge differences.

''Water which sustains life shouldn't be polluted or wasted lest we should suffer gravely.'' So, let's take a pledge to save water from being polluted.

Ways To Save Water

Hey everyone! 
Today's WORLD WATER DAY i.e on every 22 March, World Water Day is celebrated worldwide in order to spread awareness regarding CONSERVATION OF WATER as it is DEPLETING DAY-BY-DAY.
So, today, I'm putting up an article on the topic 'Ways To Save Water'

💧💧Ways To Save Water💧💧

By: Preksha Mahajan

Water which is 100% natural but 0% replaceable is very precious and necessary and it must not be wasted. Do you know what's the actual story behind this statement? Let's find out.

Nature has given many divine gifts to us out of which, WATER is very vital for a man's survival. Without water, life is impossible on the planet Earth. These days, most of the people waste water without realising that only 2% of water is fit for drinking, cooking and other activities. They leave taps open, throw water filled in the bottles, etc. As a result, 1500 litres of water are wasted per minute all over the planet. All we can do is saving water using various methods and techniques. One should avoid using showers but take a bath with a bucket and mug. Also, driveway, cars and sideways should not be washed and hosed with pipes but with a wet mob. One should be concerned and must stop and report all the leakages. Water used in washing vegetables, fruits, etc. should be given to plants or used for cleaning floor, etc. This will help in recycling water. Taps should not be left running while washing clothes, dishes, shaving or brushing teeth, etc. Some practical ways of saving the rain water are by adopting two methods of roof-top rain water harvesting and drain-water harvesting in the colonies. Also, water given off by ROs (Reverse Osmoisis) should be used for household activities. The United Nations Organization celebrates 22 March each year as 'World Water Day' to spread awareness among public to save water in order to save life. Therefore, small actions can make many changes. 

So, it is rightly said that, ''Save water while still you can because water is the most fundamental resource.'' After all, our contributions are always valued.

Reduce Food Waste

Hey there!

Today's post is an article based on the topic ''Reduce Food Waste''.

So, here it is..

''🍞Reduce Food Waste🍞''

By: Preksha Mahajan
Would you like to eat a carrot that has two roots or a tomato shaped like a duck? If you ask most of the food buyers, the answers are no. Yes, it is infact very true.But what's the actual story?

A lot of food sellers think no one buys freaky-looking food items. In developing nations, a lot of food gets wasted when people order too much in restaurants. What doesn't get eaten, gets thrown away. As a result, each year, more than 1.3 billion metric tons of food gets wasted just because of some problems like not storing food properly or the way in which it looks like. Producing food that no one eats, in turn, wasted the water, ferilizers, seeds, fuel and land to grow it. Ultimately, more than 800 million people on the planet starve and die of hunger. More food is lost or wasted than is consumed or utilised. Also 9% of food is thrown away at supermarkets and 19% is uneaten and thrown away in homes. So, all we can do is taking small actions, though we don't have any solutions to this issue. One should make the adage i.e. ''Waste Not If You Want Not.'' as his/ her motto. There are many solutions to reduce this food wastage. Students should learn to avoid food wastage. By scheduling recess before lunch, schools can reduce 30% of food waste. Fresh food should be bought. One must think about the right quantity of food to be eaten. Rejected food i.e. regarded as 'ugly' shouldn't be thrown but given to animals or put into composts. If at restaurants, one should share side dishes to keep portions under control. Therefore, small actions can make many changes.

So, I would like to conclude that, ''It takes abut 100 days to produce food but it takes just 2 seconds to waste food.'' Knowing all this, let's reduce food waste in order to reduce deaths that are caused due to hunger and starvation because, ''There is enough for man's need but not enough for man's greed.''

How Spick and Span You Keep Your Environment?

Hello everyone!

Very well, another post of mine is before you. 

Today, I'm going to put up an article on 'IMPORTANCE OF CLEAN SURROUNDINGS'.

Here it is..

🍃''IMPORTANCE OF CLEAN SURROUNDINGS''🍃

What happens when you see junk everywhere? I'm sure you don't like to see your horrible surroundings filled with heaps of garbage and flies hovering above them.

Well, the actual fact is that people keep their homes neat and clean but public places are full of filth. In this era, wherever you go in India, either to see about the Indian heritage or to rejuvenate yourselves in the lap of nature by going to famous picnic spots of India, all that you'll find is plastic bags lying everywhere which makes the scenery unpleasant. But in actual, there are many harmful consequences of garbage and filth in public places as when the flies sit on them, this garbage sticks on their feet. When these flies sit on any food item, that food gets contaminated because of the dirty feet of flies on the food. When this food is taken in, the person will suffer from food poisoning and as a result, many diseases like: cholera, dengue, malaria, etc. start spreading. So, we should promote cleanliness and be responsible about throwing trash in right bins and not on roads or public places. Public awareness campaigns should also be raised as ''TOGETHER WE CAN AND WE WILL MAKE A DIFFERENCE.''

Knowing all this, let's spread the message for keeping surroundings clean through taking part actively in Swachh Bharat Abhiyaan started by our honourable Prime Minister Sh. Narendra Damodardas Modi andv keep our environment spick and span because 
'' CLEAN AND GREEN SHOULD BE EVERYONE'S PERFECT DREAM. ''
