Make the blue...Green

'Earth' a part of the infinite universe believed to be formed from just dust. In course of time, it has become man's primary and only inhabitance. Everyday we better living with our intuitive knowledge from nature itself. In return, we give nothing but- greenhouse gas, deforestation, pollution to our mother nature. It is not far off that we are going to reap what we sow. In spite of outcries for a greener land, we have not made enough progress. In my opinion, we need changes both in law and in people.
Laws should be made more stringent. Since, it can bring in changes at the macro level, at quicker rate. Many people at least 80% abide by law just because they are liable to do so or, for the penalty. In either case, it can bring in immediate changes. But, law makers are hesitant to bring more rules and restrictions for their own shorter political gains. I would not deny the fact that there are changes going on making earth greener and a better place. For example, united states the largest consumer of wood. They came back strongly for the larger deforestation issue due to their lumber industries. They passed bill for Lumber Industries to cultivate the forest when they are done with wood in a particular site before shutdown. Industries will not take safer disposal unless it is a mandate or cheaper way. So, only law can make the required changes here.
Change in people mentality is also required to bring in changes at micro level. We should be taught and be made aware that a butterfly's flapping wings can send a ripple of causation through out the world so does our individual action. Unconsciously, we pull back when we touch fire. Likewise, we must reflex to refrain from activities which can cause harm to our environment. These things should start from a grass root level. Now a days, even people are interested and are moving towards building environment friendly home with bio-degradable paints, woods, insulation etc. This is a welcome sign but the figures are not satisfying. As the fat percentage marked on the edible substances, there should be some kind environment friendly level mentioned in all consumer items. People should choose greener products.
We have grown to a level of exploring possibility of life in other planets far, far away. Till now, to our knowledge, nothing more than this blue planet could be conducive. This has been our abode for millions and millions of years now. It is an inconvenient truth that we are sensing the changes because of our hostile actions. We cannot let the earth go back to just dust. We ought to make the world greener and we can.
