Nursery Today Desk
New Delhi. Earth is our home and nature is our mother. Mother Nature takes care of our needs and essentials. From fresh air to breathe to building shelters to stay, she makes sure we have every vitals to survive on this earth, to enjoy its mesmerizing beauty and ask for everything we need.
We, as human beings have been gifted with the ability to reason and think unlike any other living being on this earth. But, in spite of showing gratitude to what nature gives us, we have started to take its availability for granted. Instead of just plucking the fruits from the tree of nature, we now, unreasonably cut down the whole tree. We exploit nature as if, we, human beings are the owner of this earth and the last generation on this earth. In the greed to development, we have left behind the concept of sustainable development. Our actions has left the whole ecosystem disturbed, environment to be filthy.
We must not forget, every action has equal and opposite reaction. The rage of Mother Nature can be seen destroying mankind and its concrete development. Flood, landslides, cyclones, draught and every other natural disaster is nothing but result of our impartial steps towards development.
