Saving Environment – What is Happening

With the entire goings around environmental sphere, scientists predicted in the past that there would be effects which would result from global climate change and they are now occurring in terms of loss of sea ice, accelerated sea level rise and longer, more intense heat waves. The climate change impact due to global warming in India is the increase in number of people suffering from death, disease and injury from heat waves, floods, storms and droughts. 

Talking about prominent names in this field, Green Across India is one which is known for spreading information about current status of the Indian environment and promoting eco-friendly projects in India. For this purpose, it has taken wild & wacky initiatives and spreading the awareness regarding environmental hazards and the ways to mitigate them across SAARC nations especially India. If we take action to radically reduce greenhouse gas emissions now, there’s a good chance that we can limit average global temperature rises and climate change adaption rate would increase as a result. This doesn’t mean that there will be no more changes in the climate – warming is already happening – but we could limit, adapt to and manage these changes. 

It all depends on how we use natural resources affects our health and health of our communities. Because everyone uses these sources, we all have some part to play in protecting, preserving and sharing these resources. One efficient and acclaimed way is through eco-friendly projects and restores all these valuable resources offered by Earth so that we can save all the living beings at risk. @ http://www.gogreenindia.co.in/

Survive an Earthquake

A little knowledge and a few precautionary measures can enormously increase your chances of surviving an earthquake.  The keys are education and preparing in advance. Here are a few tips that will help you survive an earthquake that are very prominent in SAARC countries especially in India.

Earth Care- Before the Earthquake:

• Stock up on emergency supplies like batteries, flashlights, first aid kit, bottled water, two weeks food and medical supplies, blankets, cooking fuel, tools needed to turn off your gas, water and electric utilities.
• Arrange your home for safety: Store heavy objects on lower shelves and store breakable objects in cabinets with latched doors. Don't hang heavy mirrors or pictures above where people frequently sit or sleep.
• Store flammable liquids away from potential ignition sources such as water heaters, stoves and furnaces.
• Learn where the main turn-offs are for your water, gas and electricity. Know how to turn them off and the location of any needed tools.

During the Earthquake:

• If you are indoors, stay there. Quickly move to a safe location in the room such as under a strong desk, a strong table, or along an interior wall. The goal is to protect you from falling objects and be located near the structural strong points of the room. Avoid taking cover near windows, large mirrors, hanging objects, heavy furniture, heavy appliances or fireplaces.
• If you are outdoors, move to an open area where falling objects are unlikely to strike you. Move away from buildings, power lines and trees.
• If you are driving, slow down smoothly and stop on the side of the road. Avoid stopping on or under bridges and overpasses or under power lines, trees and large signs. Stay in your car.

After the Earthquake:

• Check for injuries; attend to injuries if needed.
• Check for damage. If your building is badly damaged you should leave it until it has been inspected by a safety professional.
• If you smell or hear a gas leak, get everyone outside and open windows and doors. Do not use any electrical appliances because a tiny spark could ignite the gas.
• If the power is out, unplug major appliances to prevent possible damage when the power is turned back on.

Sometimes natural calamities are caused due to human activities. Think of how to make good measures for the welfare of the Earth and do your bit!

A recent UN report on climate change claims that India is among the few counted nations that will be witnessing abrupt climate changes in coming years. The drastic change in climate cycle brings with it a greater risk of food & water shortage which will cause mal nutrition in those living below poverty line. We need to bring dramatic changes in our habits, share ideas for go green and attitude as the given deadline is not far away than middle of present century.

Through these stories we intend to disseminate inspiration on all levels which can bloom in form of eco-friendly policies, regulations, habits, and measures. South Asian nations are the biggest victims of malefic activities that are swiftly pushing our ecology towards destruction. The region also treasures some of the biggest reserves of natural resources that are being coerced towards extinction. The save environment movement in this section has inspired a complete generation of individuals and communities who are fastly breeding new ideas to go green. Along with, there are many who are looking for ways to improve their ecology but are compelled to sustain with pollution due

to lack of information.

Understanding the need of the hour, we have taken up this responsibility and committed a team that brings forth a series of innovative eco-friendly projects that are being adopted at individual and group levels. As a nation and as a society we need to bring changes on all fronts be it forest or SAARC's wildlife. All aspects of environment are equally vulnerable to climate change convention and pollution but the basic measure starts right from lower levels where people need to adopt an eco-friendly lifestyle leaving behind consumerism.

Saarc Wild And Wacky

What if you went extinct in next decade? Your own final day is set and it’s not all that far away from the present as you wanted it to. And to add to that scenario, the reason why that is happening is not your fault. The truth is, you don’t even know who caused this, but it is definitely happening. How does that make you feel? Many other individuals took action for their own benefit and profit and who has to pay the price is you. At the same time you know that they will continue taking advantage from others and causing their extinction one by one.

There is nothing you can do. You don’t have a voice as big as they do. All there is left for you to do is wait and hope that something will change. While you sit there waiting, the destruction of others around you continue. It’s hard to understand and no one is sure why are they doing this so bluntly, but your thoughts cannot stop anything.

What a Wild and Wacky world, right? Too bad that is our reality. Every endangered species inhabiting our world right now suffers that. All kinds of different and exotic species seeing the number of their own kind get smaller and smaller by the day without having done anything to cause that.

The SAARC wild life is one of many who are suffering from all of the damaged caused by human activities. Our constant focus to grow more and more is one of the main causes that are making us lose focus that we live in a planet where everything depends on balance. And that lack of balance is quickly turning our earth into a much endangered place to live.

Visit Go Green India and you’ll find much more on this topic along with our section of wild and wacky news that we cover everything that is happening in the world and with a focus on the SAARC areas.
