Take a resolution this New Year to contribute positively to alleviate the climate crisis we are falling into. Help heal her wounds. The slow pace of change happening in the world can be disheartening.  It can even anger us that many people including many of our leaders don't seem to care or are absolutely ignorant to the fact that climatic changes have begun and that the warming process is only going to continue further. Don't our kids and their descendants deserve a habitable planet to live in. We  work our butts off to leave our descendants a lot of wealth but what is the use if they have to use all that wealth to maybe buy some pure oxygen and essentials just to live.

The consequences of global warming are an unthinkable catastrophe waiting to engulf  the entire humanity. There is unquestionable scientific proof that the planet is already beginning to feel the pangs of global warming. If we continue on the present course it will be catastrophic, leading to lots of low lying areas disappearing within the next few years . You are already witnessing different cycles of rain , oppressive heat and storms of increased severity .The Arctic and Antarctic are melting and there is a report that the glacier that feeds the Ganges will soon disappear - Doesn't that stir something in you?.  It will lead to famine and diseases and the world will lose its natural filter, namely the ozone layer, that protects us from the harmful radiations of the sun.  Start acting before it is too late.

Start doing a few basic everyday changes like refusing to use plastic bags, stop wasting  water by letting it run the entire time you are brushing or shaving, switch to less heat emitting and power consuming bulbs,use public transport whenever possible, reduce your vehicle emission levels, use organic methods of farming, plant and grow with care at least one tree per person this year, reduce power consumption at home, buy products that consume less power, use paper cups and bags, recycle waste, install a solar water heater at home, etc.These small steps can lead to a bigger good.

May this New Year be a year where the obstinate and non believers start changing for the planet's good and  you start changing your lifestyle a bit to heal the planet's wounds. Happy New Year.
