Environmentally Yours

Environmentally Yours GLOBAL WARMING, CLIMATE CHANGE, NUCLEAR HOLOCAUSTE- very big words; beyond us. ILLEGAL MINING, RIVER POLLUTION, FOREST DEVASTATION- not our concern; ordinary mortals. As decent individuals we barely use one car, one fridge, one air-conditioner or even none. Leading a carefree life we Indians throw empty water bottles anywhere, choke waterways by throwing all waste materials, even electronic, sanitary waste trail here and there; spitting anywhere, urinating on roadsides we find pleasure in heaping more over heaped garbage remaining alert that no such nuisance is done before our doors while throwing petty things through our windows. But all our petty actions, as unified team, boomerang on us as the ultimate victim. Environment is what surrounds us but are we not surrounding our environment?
