Looking around ourselves, we find nothing new to see or witness. We are more than aware of what goes in our surrounding on a daily basis. When we walk down the streets, the grasses and trees on the roadside, flying birds, passing animals, intensity of the sunlight or the intensity of rain, the feel of the cool breeze across our skin and every single thing seems so mediocre. It?s a daily phenomenon. What probably could be worth noticing? But a closer look towards these mediocre stuffs gives us an idea about things that are sustaining our life and acting as a string on which our survival has been dwindling since ages.

Being a rightful inhabitant of this planet we are blessed with opulent natural entities. Our life is fairly livable due to these. And man has always utilized these entities in the way he finds fit. Till this date the natural elements are utilized to the extent that it would not be wrong to say that the utilization pattern has changed into exploitation. 

Learning that every natural element is not perpetual and needs replacement is the major need of our generation. Taking from how much we receive from nature and exploit it, learning about the ways it has been helping us sustain our life is the least we can do. 

One might look around himself and find ?Learning from Nature? a baffling concept. But it is important to know and acknowledge that every single thing around us exists because of the delicate balance of the nature. We exist because of the delicate balance of nature. Either it is the linkage in the food chain hierarchy of the ecosystem or the exchange of gases during the photosynthesis or the cycle of clouds for the water cycle or maybe the works of the small microorganisms in the soil. Every single thing is interlinked and has something to teach us. These linkages are the clear indication of how our life must have a balance and stability to itself.

 Recent crisis of fossil fuel worldwide is an indication that, no element is perpetual and needs continuous replacement and recycling. Pollution patterns have helped us realize that every action we take has a direct impact on the natural phenomenon and consequently to every dependent living being. It is our responsibility to replenish what is starting to get lost.

Efforts can be taken from the grass root level. For instance, trees can be planted every once in a while to recycle the polluted air, use of chemicals can be cut off and organic ways could be opted. Use of fuels could be lessened; environment friendly materials could be used. A small effort will not only create a huge difference but also encourage people around to follow.  

Every single person of our generation is speeding off towards modernization. Our life has become so much easier due to these efforts. But in the race of reaching the utmost peak of modernization, we are demolishing every natural element that comes in its way. Though this may seem like nothing, but the effects are starting to show either in the form of global warming or climate change. If some steps are not taken to connect back to the nature, humanity might be in a brink of demolition.

So, it is time we start tracing our ways back to nature and heed the lessons it has been trying to teach us. It is time we start being responsible for the mistakes we have made in past and be ready to correct it. It is time we start building a healthy and sustainable future for our children by passing on lessons we have learned. Let us teach our children to love and respect the nature.  So, let us all take a step towards building a sustainable environment around ourselves. Let us be the change we wish to see. Let?s together be a responsible part of nature.

Thank You.
