Adverse effects
of global warming are seen in form of depletion of ozone layer and climate
change has led to increase in the rate of disasters. Uneven rainfall, cyclones,
droughts, heat and cold waves have affected the lives of people in several
ways. We cannot blame or make one entity responsible to solve the issues of
environment. Working as a team we can achieve more. However, government can
legislate and enforce the environment friendly behaviour of individuals and
organisations by law.
For example, gas
and electricity which is usually provided by government must be produced using
renewable sources of energy such as solar and hydro power. Further stricter
laws must be enforced to reduce the emissions from industries and discarding
toxic waste in a nature friendly manner. Government must ensure that students
in schools and universities understand the threat possessed by increasing
pollution and are encouraged to use recyclable products. Moreover, more funds
must be spent in R&D to reduce toxic waste. Furthermore, organisations and
government together can introduce programs where they plant trees. However,
making laws is just one part of the coin –execution is even more important.
Such vast scale
initiatives cannot be completed by an entity in itself. In my opinion, I
believe governments, organisations and individuals are equally responsible to
solve the problem.
