In
the last 2.8 million years, billions of people who lived on earth
have seen many conflicts, deadly wars, diseases, floods, earthquakers,
fires
Now world
has become a village and like a contagious disease spreads faster
in a village, Covid19 which is a non contagious disease has spread
across the world and economy has gone down seriously. But this
is a medical disease and there will be some medicine or vaccine
after some days and it certainly will not be a big disease in
2030.
But there
would be new diseases, crime, wars, conflicts ... and we have
not learnt deadely disease whch we see.
We and our future generations have to fight it.
Call it by any name but in simple words it is " Climate disease"
We say we
have not learnt because we use plastic, wood (means cutting trees),
even our mobile phones are used only for couple of years and we
use new phone and dont know whether our earlier phone is thrown
and leads to climate change. We use petrol, diesel, fly by airplanes,
use computers ... everything we do has some effect on climate
because we want good packing when we get them and fro the manufacturer
to our wholesale agent to retailer to us, the equipment travel
which means petrol, diesel is used.
We know we
are not 1st century persons who never used internet, vehicles,
ACs, airplanes, mobiles ... and technology changed us.
But our human attitude is changing.
If we dont use same mobile for 3 years (and use mobile like respiration
e.g. everything right from calls, messages, video meets, payment
..), do we sell or throw ourself, our lives (We sell our talent
but ask yourself if you sell yourself)
World must
fight against climate because neither 100000 billion dollars nor
just 10 countries can solve this problem.
It needs the
world to come together and Covid19 has partly started this action
of togetherness
as well as working from home attitude thereby reducing climate
damage that we do through vehicles, more consumption of water
and light ...
It has also
helped friends to come togetheron video meetings.
And it has
resulted in parents seeing their children many times a day (instead
of once in few days or months)
