Corruption and Our Environment

by Sushant Yadav | 27-08-2020 01:10 recommendations 0

The Earth¡¯s ecosystems are under increasing pressure from human activities, because of rising levels of greenhouse gases, habitat and species extinction, pollution, global climate change, and fish and water scarcity. Corruption is a universal problem. It is present in all societies, political systems and cultures. It can aggravate many conditions, increasing the potential for abuse and the amount of damage inflicted. It plays a large negative role in practically all environmental problems, affecting natural systems and their dependent communities.


There are many reports that provides a list of activities which may be considered corruption occurring in various sector causing direct harm to the environment. The most basic corruption occurs in forestry sector. Examples include the logging of timber species protected by law and extracting more timber than authorized. It includes payments to senior politicians to obtain timber concessions and payments made to bureaucrats to under-report the amount of harvesting which directly leads to deforestation, habitat loss, soil erosion, flood, land slide, forest fires. Other species threatened with extinction through over-harvesting are wild animals including elephant rhinoceros and tigers.


Is the ivory tusks of elephants, horns of rhinoceros and bones and skins of tigers are that valuable. Owing those materials by killing a beautiful soul, will it be worthy. I think no. Those animals are created and carved by nature. Those animal¡¯s elegance is enhanced in the jungle only. When they jump, when they walk with grace not on the wall, not on the floor. We are human beings. We need to eradicate corruption for our environment, for our sake.
